Dukal DR05 - Standard Razor, Blue Handle, Twin Blade, 100/BX, 20 BX/CS
The Dukal DR05 Standard Razor is a disposable, twin-blade razor featuring a lightweight blue handle designed for efficient preoperative and patient grooming use. The razor is intended for single use to support infection control practices and reduce the risk of cross-contamination. With a twin blade cutting surface, it provides a smooth, even shave while minimizing skin irritation, making it suitable for patient prep in clinical and hospital environments.
Key Benefits
The twin-blade design helps achieve closer and more consistent hair removal compared to single-blade disposable razors. The ergonomic blue handle allows for secure grip and control, even when gloved. The single-use format eliminates the need for sterilization or reprocessing, saving time and ensuring a clean, hygienic device for every patient encounter. Individually packaged, the razors help maintain sterility and support streamlined distribution across care areas.
Compatibility and Applications
This razor is commonly used in hospitals, ambulatory surgery centers, emergency rooms, long-term care facilities, and home care scenarios. It is designed specifically for preoperative and pre-procedure skin preparation, but can also be used for routine shaving needs for patient hygiene. The twin-blade setup works effectively on various hair types while maintaining patient comfort.
Usage Guidelines
Open the individual package immediately before use. Apply shaving cream or approved prep solution as required by facility protocol. Use light, controlled strokes to remove hair without applying excessive pressure. Dispose of the razor in accordance with the sharps or facility waste handling policies. Do not reuse or attempt to clean the razor after use.
Certifications, Safety Standards, and Regulatory Approvals
The Dukal DR05 Standard Razor is manufactured under medical device quality system standards appropriate for disposable patient preparation tools. It is intended for single use and should be used in accordance with local facility policies and applicable regulatory requirements. Users should verify regional approvals on product packaging.
Comparison with Competitor Products
Compared to basic single-blade disposable razors, the Dukal DR05 provides a smoother shave and reduces the risk of pulling or dragging on sensitive skin. The twin blade configuration helps decrease the number of passes needed to achieve adequate hair removal, which can improve patient comfort and reduce skin irritation. The sturdy handle construction improves control, setting it apart from lower-grade razors that may bend or slip during use.
Typical User Profile and Application Scenarios
This product is typically used by perioperative nurses, surgical technologists, caregivers, and medical staff responsible for patient hygiene and procedural preparation. Common use cases include surgical site prep, catheter insertion prep, wound care access, and routine shaving for personal hygiene in inpatient settings.
Best Practices for Use and Maintenance
Use gentle pressure to avoid skin irritation. Ensure the skin is hydrated or lubricated before shaving. Dispose of the razor immediately after use and do not attempt to reuse or sanitize. Store unused razors in a clean, dry environment to maintain packaging integrity and sterility.
Regulatory and Safety Information
