Unhygienic Kling™, nylon pull cords and string pulls remain on many North American hospital facility fixtures despite C-Dif, MRSA and the shocking experience of the 2004 Toronto SARS outbreak Canada recorded 375 probable and suspected cases of SARS. Two nurses and a doctor were among the 44 people who succumbed to the disease How many thousands die annually due to HAIs? Simply unbelievable!

Plastic pulls are a step forward for cleanability but fails to address other risks that are not often considered Most nurse call manufacturers now use OEM plastic pull cords on their pull stations Risk mitigation
27
are hard to grasp and pull for users with arthritis or disabilities (especially those in rehabilitation facilities) have the potential to cause injury and infection if pulled across ‘paper skin’ of elderly residents are difficult to see for visually impaired people, especially under low light conditions OEM and aftermarket plastic pull cords…

effective choking device for assault or suicide can be knotted, therefore potential use as a ligature (tying) device poses a strangulation risk due to entanglement A knotted pull cord will not be cleaned and no one will bother untying the knot

Sanipull mitigates the risk of a Sentinel event Sanipull anti-ligature modified ribbon breaks away at 29 +/-2 lbs force Cord ligatures become buried under neck skin fold
30
Due diligence and sourcing the safest available product is a facility’s best defence against legal, financial and reputation repercussions that a Sentinel event may bring.
