Date: 18/2/2026
Location: SIENA
– The Siena University Hospital (Azienda Ospedaliero-Universitaria Senese) has adopted UV-HEROES®, integrating it into its hygiene protocols with the aim of strengthening the prevention of healthcare-associated infections and raising protection standards for patients and healthcare professionals.
UV-HEROES® provides active hygiene for the stethoscope, reducing the risk of cross-contamination between patients and healthcare staff. In addition, its presence on the instrument acts as a constant visual reminder, supporting adherence to good hygiene practices in daily clinical routines.
AOU Senese leadership underscores the importance of practical solutions that can be immediately integrated into everyday practice to further strengthen the safety of patients and healthcare professionals.
Following its great success at WHX Dubai, adoption at AOU Senese marks a further step in consolidating UV-HEROES®, confirming its effectiveness and ease of integration into hospital routines.
