Designed for the perioperative care of surgical patients with a short period (6 to 12 hours) of intubation, the Sage® CHG Surgical Continuum System combines our FDA-approved 2% Chlorhexidine Gluconate (CHG) Cloths for preoperative skin preparation with our proven comprehensive oral care system, now available with 0.12% Chlorhexidine Gluconate (CHG) Oral Rinse.
Three-part system
The Sage CHG Surgical Continuum System allows the right tools to be distributed to the right unit for skin prep and oral care of the surgical patient.
The three-part system provides the correct tools packaged to be easily accessible to nurses as patients move through the perioperative period. Products are readily available as patients move from: 1. pre-surgery, 2. ICU and 3. step-down unit. Product components have been designed to match practice, while the configuration conforms to current hospital distribution from either the pharmacy or central supply, according to hospital protocol.
Complete skin preparation and oral care for patients with Sage® 2% CHG Cloths and 0.12% CHG Oral Rinse. Packaging allows for care to be dispensed on the inpatient unit, in preop holding, in Same Day Surgery or according to hospital protocol.
Provides up to 12 hours of oral care, including a dose of 0.12% CHG Oral Rinse. Prevents waste and is packaged for bedside convenience. Sage's industry leading oral cleansing and suctioning components are included to continue effective oral care for patients on a ventilator in the ICU.
Continues oral cleansing with 0.12% CHG Oral Rinse and allows for mechanical cleansing with brushing of the teeth and tongue. Packaging allows for the kit to follow patients out of the ICU to monitored units with convenient med station storage.
The first and only FDA-approved preoperative skin prep in a cloth
Sage 2% CHG Cloths address multi-drug resistant organisms on the patient's skin. This is a known risk factor for SSIs.1 Sage's unique alcohol-free, rinse-free formula is designed for early preop prep. It is quick-drying and stays on skin for maximum persistence compared to other preop prep products.
Comprehensive oral care
Comprehensive oral hygiene addresses three VAP risk factors-bacterial colonization of the oropharyngeal area, aspiration of subglottic secretions and colonization of dental plaque with respiratory pathogens.2 Reducing bacterial colonization in the mouth and on the surface of teeth of ICU patients decreases the frequency of VAP.3 According to one study, "the most effective way to remove plaque is to use a brush."4 Toothette® Oral Care addresses VAP risk factors with a comprehensive approach based on cleaning, debriding, suctioning and moisturizing the entire oral cavity. All tools and interventions are designed to make it easier to maintain a healthy oral cavity.
First unit dose oral CHG rinse in a system
The CHG Surgical Continuum System includes 0.12% CHG Oral Rinse in a single-unit dose. The single-unit dose eliminates the need for a large, multi-use bottle. Staff is more efficient because there's no need for dispensing 0.12% CHG Oral Rinse into smaller containers. This minimizes waste, improves utilization and maximizes compliance to protocol.
CHG Oral Rinse:
- Use with a toothbrush for plaque removal
- Pleasant tasting
- Tamper evident seal
