Overview:
Stet Clean is the first automatic wearable device for the disinfection of stethoscopes, specifically designed to ensure deep hygiene for patients through the action of UV LEDs. Stet Clean's action starts immediately, as soon as it comes into contact with the stethoscope, with the activation of the UV LED, which starts an immediate disinfection of the membrane. Stet Clean's unique and patented conical geometric design allows efficient disinfection of the stethoscope membrane. Laboratory tests have shown that in just 60 seconds, Stet Clean's technology can deactivate 85.5% E. faecalis, 87.5% S. aureus, 94.3% E. coli and 94.9% P. aeruginosa. Prolonged exposures ensure even higher levels of disinfection (more than 99%).
Other on-going activities including LED UV-C irradiation are under development (i.e. contact lens applications).
