Chikugo Infection Control Training and Conference (CICTAC) – January 23, Fukuoka
Attendees: Yuta Adachi, Miki Iyonaga
The 15th Chikugo Infection Control Training and Conference was held on January 23 in Fukuoka. The O&M Halyard Japan team co-sponsored a seminar featuring Ms. Minako Mitsui, Infection Control Nurse from Kumamoto Shinto General Hospital, as the speaker, and Ms. Miho Miura from Kurume University Hospital, one of our KOLs, as the moderator.
The session focused on key infection prevention practices and the importance of maintaining adequate stockpiles within healthcare facilities, drawing on real-world experiences from major earthquakes and severe flooding events. The seminar aimed to strengthen awareness of infection control and disaster preparedness among participants.
Given that the Chikugo region is particularly prone to flooding due to its geographical characteristics and exposure to heavy rainfall and typhoons, the session resonated strongly with attendees and was well received, with participants describing it as highly informative.
JAPAN
The 40th Annual Conference of the Japanese Society of Cancer Nursing – February 21–22, Osaka
Attendees: Shigeru Okamura, Kohei Takeshita, Hiroko Kurihara, Miho Takeuchi, Hiromi Iwata
The 40th Annual Conference of the Japanese Society of Cancer Nursing was held in Osaka. O&M Halyard Japan participated with a booth showcasing PINK UNDERGUARD* nitrile gloves, PURPLE NITRILE-XTRA* gloves, and chemotherapy gowns.
A key focus of the booth was education on appropriate PPE use in chemotherapy handling. Many attendees were unaware that PPE is still required when using CSTDs, as well as current guideline recommendations supporting double-gloving. To address this, O&M Halyard Japan conducted educational activities using User Reports and PPE awareness posters, highlighting the importance of double-gloving and correct PPE usage during chemotherapy preparation and administration. Visitors also had the opportunity to handle and experience the product quality firsthand.
In addition, O&M Halyard Japan promoted the upcoming webinar scheduled for May through posters and flyers, successfully engaging a large number of attendees.
