Invented by an oncology nurse, SplashBlocker® is a portable, solid, and reusable device that blocks harmful aerosols from toilets during flushing in healthcare settings.
The Problem of Toilet Plume Chromosomal Damage
Toilet plume can be propelled 6 feet above the toilet spread up to 65 sq feet, remain suspended for up to 7 days and be inhaled by healthcare workers and patients.
A 2019 review found 17 studies demonstrating a significant association between HD exposure and increased chromosomal abnormalities (p <.001)
Known Carcinogens : Arsenic Trioxide, Busulfan, Chlorambucil, Cyclophosphamide, Melphalan, Thiotepa
Suspected Carcinogens : Cisplatin, Etoposide, Mitomycin, Ganciclovir, Azacitidine, Doxorubicin, Procarbazine, Carmustine (BCNU), Nitrogen Mustard.
