Sterile Tissue Grade Water
|
BIO MED WASH® is light, saline free tissue-culture grade water proven to absorb more deeply and beneficially than other waters, including saline solution. Saline solution contains 140 times more dissolved solute than BIO MED WASH®. Although dissolved solutes in minute quantities are beneficial for healing, the more solutes water contains, the less the water is able to dissolve and wash impurities (saline solution is recommended for washing deep intramuscular cuts). Non-Saline.

Bag-In-Can Technology
|
No Fluorocarbons, no gas release into atmosphere. Nitrogen bladder. Cutting edge "bagin-can" technology improves sanitation, avoids chemical propellants and preservatives, and increases the product's useful life by insulating the water against extreme heat and cold.

Trigger Activator
|
Allows control usage of product. Multiple uses as product always remains sterile. The BIO MED WASH® trigger actuator emits Bio-Logic Aqua® tissue-culture grade water as a spray, making it unnecessary to touch the wound.

Hydrotherapy and First Aid
|
Bio Med WASH may be utilized for eye irritation, burn management, wound management, tear gas & pepper spray and to help rinse chemical exposure. BIO MED WASH® all-natural, sterile first aid wash for cuts and lacerations, is the first product that replaces saline solution for washing abrasions and lacerations (saline is still preferred for deep intramuscular cuts). The product is invaluable in the initial washing of skin that has come in contact with irritating chemicals such as gasoline, pepper spray, tear gas or plant toxins; and the washing of eyes irritated by foreign particles, heavy smoke, dust or perspiration.

Protecting Your Eyes in an Emergency
|
Quick and simple eye care information for fire-fighters, law enforcement, military and rescue personnel that could save vision - or lives!

|
Clear Vision Can Save a Life
|
It is a fact: Military personnel, law enforcement, fire-fighters, homeland security and emergency rescue workers are not taught enough about protecting their own vision during an emergency. The need is enormous because these well-trained and brave individuals are often faced with situations where "Clear Vision Can Save a LifeTM" – Not only their won but the lives of those around them.

Vision Threats
|
During a disaster or emergency, threats to vision may come from multiple sources: Smoke, chemical and explosive fumes, chemical weapons, tear gas, pepper spray, perspiration, dust, wind, heat, solar radiation, cold, stress, fatigue, foreign particles, etc. Vision threats may be also originate from the more mundane: Building and window insulation, cleaning fluids, wet paint, auto exhaust, slicing onions. A plastic laundry basket left too close to the fireplace could create an emergency just as dangerous to life and vision as an oilfield explosion. When threat becomes reality, the resultant vision challenges can range from eyestrain to burning or itching eyes, to excessive tearing, to blurred vision. These challenges may be mild (sub-acute), temporarily debilitating or they could result in permanent visual impairment or loss of life.

Fumes, smoke, tear gas, pepper spray, airborne chemicals, Chemical or thermal burns to eyes, eyelids, or skin
|
Airborne chemicals create discomfort by alerting the pH balance (acidity/alkalinity) and osmolarity (moisture attracting and retaining ability), of tear film. Should the irritants build up to where discomfort becomes extreme irrigate with BIO MED WASH® by spraying directly into eyes from a distance of 8-12”, followed by gentle blotting with a handkerchief or tissue. Protective eyewear or headgear also helps protect eyes from airborne irritants.

|
BIO MED WASH® & OC exposure
|
BIO MED WASH® will probably not remove all OC ("oleoresin capsicum" or pepper spray) from skin or eyes. The product provides a sterile wash to start the decontamination process, and can also help reduce the risk of secondary exposure for someone attending a sprayed individual. Note: OC should be washed off with great care and according to established first aid procedures. Contaminated areas should not be touched or scrubbed.
