The Challenge:
Degradation & Eventual Damage Over Time of Hemodialysis Machines
Methodist Healthcare, based in San Antonio, TX, deploys a fleet of 2008T BlueStar™ Hemodialysis Machines for their acute and chronic hemodialysis therapy while implementing stringent infection control protocols between patients to ensure maximum safety.
When sanitizing their hemodialysis machines daily using a suite of PDI products, they noticed screen degradation and eventual damage over time. This issue persisted and worsened after regular cleaning intervals, which raised concerns about long-term usability for their fleet of hemodialysis machines.

The Solution:
Seal Shield's Clean Seal Screen Protectors
To remedy this issue, Methodist Healthcare tested out several screen protector options to prevent degradation to their hemodialysis units. Following implementation and same cleaning practices, many hemodialysis machines continued to experience screen degradation despite being screen protectors advertised for compatibility with medical grade disinfectants. The only set of screen protectors that endured their stringent cleaning protocols was Seal Shield’s Clean Seal screen protectors.
The hemodialysis machines outfitted with the Seal Shield Clean Seal Standard Screen Protectors withstood their suite of medical-grade disinfectants which includes PDI products. Upon the initial success, Methodist Healthcare leveraged Seal Shield’s screen protectors to be applied to the remaining machines, ensuring a seamless fit without damaging their heavily used equipment.

“Before Seal Shield, we were constantly dealing with degradation. The Clean Seal screen protectors provided an immediate improvement, giving us peace of mind that our hemodialysis units would remain functional and hygienic.”
The Impact
Methodist Healthcare observed that screens remained in pristine condition despite regular disinfection. Degraded screens and repair requests were brought down to ZERO since the implementation of Clean Seal screen protectors and the staff can sanitize worry free.
Seal Shield’s Clean Seal is designed for healthcare environments. The durable screen protectors are UV resistant and compatible with medical-grade solutions, allowing frequent sanitization without compromising device performance. By implementing Clean Seal screen protectors, Methodist Healthcare is able to protect their fleet hemodialysis units without compromising their devices or infection protection protocols.
