Description
The SANDEL TRIP NO MORE CORD ALERT by Ansell is an innovative solution designed to enhance safety in healthcare environments. Its primary function is to reduce tripping hazards by making cords and tubes highly visible, thanks to its bright orange color. This product is particularly beneficial in operating rooms and similar settings where cord management is crucial.
Key Features

High Visibility: The bright orange hue ensures that cords and tubes are easily identifiable, significantly lowering the risk of trips and falls. For environments with low lighting, a glow-in-the-dark option is available, further enhancing visibility.
-
Disposable Design: Intended for single-use, this cord cover helps prevent cross-contamination between cases, aligning with best practices in healthcare hygiene.
-
Adhesive Strips: Equipped with adhesive strips, the cover stays securely in place without leaving any residue, ensuring easy application and removal. This allows for quick replacement between cases, maintaining efficiency and safety.
-
Cost-Effective: As a non-sterile, economical solution, it provides effective cord management without compromising on quality or safety.

Usage Guidelines
For optimal performance, the cord cover should be applied to clean, dry floors. Cords should be placed within the cord channel, not under the adhesive strips. Firm adherence is achieved by pressing the cover's outer edges to the floor. If necessary, selecting a larger cord channel size can ensure proper adhesion. It is recommended to replace the cover after each surgical case or if it becomes loose due to moisture.
Compliance and Recommendations
This product supports compliance with AORN guidelines, OSHA standards, and NIOSH recommendations for slip, trip, and fall prevention. By integrating the SANDEL TRIP NO MORE CORD ALERT into their safety protocols, healthcare facilities can effectively mitigate trip hazards, fostering a safer environment for both staff and patients.
