Invention Support Announces a Great New Invention for the Medical Community Known as "Clip-On Sanitizer"

(PRWeb) February 25, 2007 -- Invention Support has signed a strategic alliance with Russ Brown, the inventor of the new device known as "Clip-On Sanitizer", to offer support for this great new invention and to proudly introduce it into the general market.

The basic idea behind the Clip-On Sanitizer is that it would help hospital workers maintain the cleanliness of their hands in a more convenient manner. The device is a light weight metal canister held in place by a rubber/plastic holder that is contoured to fit the wearer. A single press of a button dispenses a small amount of sanitizer to instantly clean the hands of the user. This idea is almost entirely new and is certainly open to extensive market developments.

The history of market developments which have led to the idea for the Clip-On Sanitizer are many. They began, however, with the invention of the hand sanitizing solution that is most popularly distributed by the Purell company. The invention proposed by Russ for the Clip-On Sanitizer may be a way of extending the convenience of products such as the Purell sanitizer into a more widespread use by the general public and by health professionals.

Throughout the past few decades, products which promote hand sanitation have developed to a point where a further convenience for users and a general expansion of the market for these items is ripe. The Clip-On Sanitizer could be just the kind of product to make this expansion a reality.

Demand for infection prevention products and services in the United States will grow 4.6 percent yearly through 2009. Surgical drapes and gowns, hand sanitizers and powder-free gloves will be among the top performers. Services will outpace products overall, led by contract sterilization. The hospital market will remain dominant while drug companies lead gains. The CDC estimates that 1/3 of health care-associated infections can be prevented through better infection control programs. Additionally, hand hygiene is recognized as the single most important measure to help reduce the spread of infection.

More than 2 million hospital-acquired infections occur in the United States every year, carrying a price tag of $4.5 billion. This is a $9.4 billion US infection prevention industry. Also significant to the development of market potential for the Clip-On Sanitizer is the recent news of the sales of Vi-Jon's Germ-X hand sanitizer which has jumped 500 percent. While the flu flattens thousands nationwide, it's making sales soar at one local company. A new study confirms Skinvisible's patent-pending Chlorhexidine Hand Sanitizer to kills the Avian 'Bird Flu' Virus H5N1 on contact for up to four hours. This news could prove significant to future distribution of devices that carry the solution such as the Clip-On Sanitizer.

Indeed, the huge amount of marketing success that has come about in relation to hand sanitizers in general is evidence of a hugely expanding market potential for a device such as the Clip-On Sanitizer. Marketers and retailers of wellness products will soon begin to address the trends in the ways people are shopping for these medical devices. Marketing success will come to companies that identify the shifts and turns in the consumer market before everybody else. Jumping on board with the great new invention like the Clip-On Sanitizer will be just the way to achieve these ends. It is very likely that the Clip-On Sanitizer device will soon become a more popular tool for countless people all around the world.
