'7 steps' in anaesthesia
The '7 steps' to help improve patient and environmental safety in anaesthesia summarises the patient safety features and environmental advantages of using an Intersurgical breathing system.
- Integral monitoring lines – Intersurgical’s modular breathing systems include an integral gas monitoring line which helps to improve accuracy and reduce patient connections.
- Silver Knight™ - Antimicrobial silver ions within our Silver Knight™ breathing systems help to reduce bacteria proliferation and minimise cross-contamination.
- Tethered caps – All Intersurgical anaesthetic breathing systems have brightly coloured and tethered luer caps, which help reduce the risk of foreign body aspiration during ventilation.
- Push and twist – Intersurgical’s unique Push and Twist feature ensures a secure, leak free fit every time.
- Colour coded filters – Intersurgical’s filter range is colour coded for ease of identification and to ensure the correct filter/HME is used at the correct position within the breathing system, minimising any potential harm to the patient.
- Intersurgical sodalime – The absorbency capacity of Spherasorb™ means that fewer kilos are used per hour of anaesthesia than many other absorbents and production waste is recycled back into usable soda lime, reducing the amount of waste.
- Reduce your environmental impact - Intersurgical’s ClearLite™ face mask offers a 72% reduction in environmental impact compared to a traditional PVC mask.
