Description

Moist SURE™ Liquid Sanitizer is designed to sanitize and moisturize hands. The active ingredient is isopropyl alcohol (63%). Moist SURE Liquid Sanitizer keeps skin hydrated and soft for up to two hours . The manufacturer reports that the product meets performance criteria as a Healthcare Personnel Hand Wash, moisturizes better than Vaseline Intensive Care Hand Lotion, has a five-second MRSA and VRE claim, and does not inhibit the residual activity of CHG on skin when used together. The product is available in a 15-ounce pump bottle or a 33.8-ounce refill for use in its wall-mounted automatic dispenser. Forty-one consultants used Moist SURE Liquid Sanitizer in over 1300 uses. It received an 86% clinical rating.

Product Features

Moist SURE™ Liquid Sanitizer is easy to dispense from the automatic dispenser which is activated by a motion sensor. The pump is also easy to use but dispenses a greater amount of sanitizer than necessary. The initial alcohol odor is strong but disappears quickly and is replaced by a soft, baby powder scent. Moist SURE Liquid Sanitizer produces a clean, silky feeling after rubbing in for appropriate time. Forty-six percent of consultants reported that Moist SURE Liquid Sanitizer was better than the hand sanitizer they were using, while 32% said it was equivalent. Fifty-eight percent of consultants reported that they would switch to Moist SURE Liquid Sanitizer and 71% would recommend it.

Clinical Tips

• Be patient – rub hands for about 30 seconds (until product dries) before donning gloves.
