In response to the growing concern of cross-contamination from medical equipment and as a leader in the manufacturing of disposable ECG supplies, Covidien developed the Kendall™ DL disposable cable and lead wire system.

Each year in the United States, patients get approximately 1.7 million infections in the hospital while they are being treated for something else. These Healthcare-Associated Infections (HAI) result in nearly 100,000 patient deaths per year. ¹

Research conducted at the University of Wisconsin Hospital & CliniCASE OF Madison, identified that 77% of ECG leads were contaminated with one or more antibiotic-resistant nosocomial pathogens. It was concluded that “the attachment of contaminated lead wires to a new patient can result in colonization and ultimately in invasive infection by multiresistant nosocomial microorganisms.” ²

Kendall DL disposable 3 lead monitoring set features:

Single patient use (Disposable) from patient to monitor – Reduces risk of cross-contamination from reusable cables and leads, improving patient care and cost control.
Push-button design for electrode attachment – Lead wires can be attached to any electrode without pressing on the patient, improving patient comfort.
Easy-to-read labeling – Facilitates easy connection and lead placement.
Unique product color – PINK – Easy to verify connection points and components.
Peelable ribbon design – Can be customized to fit any patient size and reduces lead wire tangling = ease of use.
Provides better electrode attachment – Reduces the risk of lead wire disengagement (“pop off”).
Fully shielded system – Electromagnetic interference (EMI) risk is reduced, improving patient care and performance.
3 lead monitoring; R, L, F (RA, LA, LL)
