Hello.

We are a student group with the University of Toronto and doing a feasibility study on an idea for anti-microbial stethoscopes or blood pressure cuffs. These medical devices have a new technology incorporated into them that kills bacteria when reacted with fluorescent light. Since disease transmission is a huge problem within hospitals, we would like your opinion on whether or not these products would be useful to you as practitioners. Furthermore, our products would be competitively priced compared to those devices already on the market.

Please respond to this thread asap as we need your input for our project!

Thank you!!!

I would have no use for an antimicrobial stethoscope... They already make BP cuffs that are antimicrobial- they are impregnated with silver....
