AcuTrace Demonstrated Compliance

Supporting audit-ready compliance through automated HLD with integrated digital traceability solutions

Accurate digital records made simple with AcuTrace® technology

To meet local accreditation requirements, traceability processes must be compliant with evidence-based standards and guidelines. The trophon®3 device uses AcuTrace radiofrequency identification (RFID) technology to electronically capture high-level disinfection (HLD) data across the reprocessing workflow in accordance with requirements in the USA, CAN, ANZ, UK, and EU .1-13

Automated digital traceability across the disinfection workflow:

  • Simplifies the creation of accurate digital records
  • Increases user compliance
  • Supports audit readiness

AcuTrace-enabled consumables and accessories include:

trophon NanoNebulant®

trophon Chemical Indicator

trophon Operator Card

trophon Medical Instrument Tag

Audit-ready compliance and archiving

AcuTrace technology captures HLD data, which is accessible on your trophon3 device to support audit readiness via different user traceability methods:

  • One-touch logging on your trophon3 device with DICOM worklist integration and optional AuditPro cloud logging
  • Printed labels capturing AcuTrace inputs and disinfection results
  • Downloads of disinfection records to USB
