Count On This Tablet To Prevent
Retained Sponges
Close confidently with the SurgiCount Tablet from Stryker. It's
a new component of the SurgiCount Safety-Sponge System,
which enables staff to perform highly accurate, real-time
sponge counts. Through an intuitive touch-screen interface,
the SurgiCount Tablet tracks the number of sponges and
towels inside and outside of a patient, providing reconciliations
throughout a case. It features WiFi capability, with real-time
data transfer to a secure, cloud-based server. Setup and
turnover is a one-step process. A slip-in battery slot provides
recharge without the need to shut down or hot swap. Schedule

This Innovative Temporary Tattoo Prevents
Wrong-Site Surgeries
Greatly reduce the risk for wrong-site surgery with Surgi-Sign,
an innovative yet simple site-marking system. Before prep,
apply this non-toxic and latex-free temporary tattoo. Within it
are open spaces for the surgeon to initial and date and for the
patient, nurse and anesthesia provider to place a checkmark
confirming the correct site. When ready to begin prep, remove
the tattoo with alcohol. It dissolves in just seconds but leaves
the marks visible for the time-out. Choose from three designs,
including one for pediatric patients. Free samples are available.
For more information, call (866) 888-7222, visit

When Malignant Hyperthermia Strikes,
Seconds Matter
Revonto™ (dantrolene sodium for injection) puts time on your
side. You can reconstitute Revonto in about 20 seconds (or
until solution is clear), as opposed to up to two minutes for
reconstitution of the traditional form of the drug. Revonto costs
the same as US Worldmeds' original generic product.
