[Comparison Criteria] Procedure sterility/operative/post operative bacterial contamination and infection risks The No-Touch Technique provides complete isolation of skin from the implant, preventing bacterial contamination of the device. Any skin contact whatsoever will void the sterility of the device regardless of the location and cleanliness of the skin that is touched.
In the Infra-pubic & other approach, the implant cylinders, pump and reservoir all come into direct contact with the skin, thus allowing for bacterial contamination of the device during the procedure. In addition, surgeons’ gloves and instruments also touch the skin, providing an indirect way for bacteria to enter into the patient.
