Nozin NOVA Program
Nozin® Nasal Sanitizer® can serve as an integral part of a comprehensive infection control strategy to reduce the levels of pathogenic bacteria within the health care environment. The Nozin NOVA™ Program is designed to optimize and streamline the introduction of Nozin® technology into your facility for helping achieve better nasal decolonization. An initial patient implementation can start in surgery or higher risk areas and expand into additional units. A facility wide solution could include universal decolonization for all patients, including applications for:
- Patient nasal decolonization post-op through recovery
- Patients in high-risk restricted environments
- ICU and surgical units
- Units with immuno-suppressed or compromised patients
Nozin NOVA Program objectives include:
- Reduction in nasal carriage that contributes to infection risk.
- Increased confidence that facility is at forefront achieving nasal decolonization for infection control
- Improved effectiveness of Hand Hygiene Program
- Frequency of nose contact compromises hand hygiene
- Reduce nose to hand transfer by reducing nasal carriage

Patient Solution Example
Simple Protocol
- Patients apply on admission and again when they occupy their room
- Then daily applications for remainder of stay
Universal Decolonization
- Opportunity to decolonize all patients without contributing to antibiotic resistance
- Broad spectrum (alcohol) anti-microbial activity
- Can save in time, money, use of personnel, labs, equipment when compared to screen and treat protocol
- Improve patient and staff experience
Pre-Post Procedure
- Easy application pre-op, no prescription required, works fast
- The benefits of nasal decolonization can be now extended at a critical time--when the post-op risk of nasal carriage to the patient is high
- No need to stop nasal decolonizing after surgery – sustain decolonization with continued use post-op.
ICU/ER
- Reduce nasal carriage prophylactically
- Helps reduce overall bacterial burden in the environment
