Product catalog summary
Introduction
Operio Mobile Laminar Air Flow is a mobile air purification system designed to achieve ISO 5 sterility in ophthalmology clinics, particularly for in-office intravitreal injections (IVIs). It provides a sterile environment by directing focused laminar airflow over the patient's eye and instrument table, reducing airborne contamination and infection risks.

Need for Ultra-Clean Air
IVIs are critical for treating retinal diseases but carry infection risks. Many outpatient clinics lack hospital-grade ventilation, increasing contamination risks. Operio offers a solution by providing cleanroom-level sterility without costly infrastructure changes.

Key Advantages
  • ISO 5 Sterility: Achieved in just 2 minutes, minimizing microbial contamination.
  • High Efficiency: Eliminates 99.995% of airborne bacteria and viruses.
  • Cost-Effective: No need for expensive HVAC upgrades; plug-and-play installation.
  • Uninterrupted Protection: Sterile airflow remains unaffected by personnel movement or equipment.

Scientific Validation
Studies show that Operio significantly reduces air contamination in outpatient settings to levels comparable to hospital operating rooms, enhancing safety and reducing infection risks.

Comparison with Conventional Systems
Operio provides direct, uninterrupted sterile airflow, unlike traditional systems that can be obstructed by surgical lights and staff movement. It offers ISO 5 ultra-clean air, low operating costs, and a quiet operation.

Design and Flexibility
  • Compact and Mobile: Fits into small procedure rooms and ambulatory centers.
  • Adjustable Instrument Table: Available in various sizes for different surgical needs.
  • User-Friendly: Electric height adjustment and sterile control via touchscreen.

Safety and Certification
Operio is CE-certified and complies with international standards, ensuring maximum hygiene and safety in surgical environments.

Conclusion
Operio Mobile Laminar Air Flow offers a flexible, scalable solution for achieving superior infection control and sterility in both new and existing operating rooms, enhancing surgical efficiency and patient safety.

Cleanroom Conditions for In-Office Intravitreal Injections with Operio Mobile Laminar Air Flow-1

Cleanroom Conditions for In-Office Intravitreal Injections with Operio Mobile Laminar Air Flow Achieve ISO 5 Sterility for Maximum Infection Control in Ophthalmology Clinics The Need for Ultra-Clean Air in Intravitreal Injection (IVI) Procedures Operio is a mobile, ultra-clean air purification system that directs focused laminar airflow over the patient’s eye and instrument table. This uninterrupted ISO 5 sterile airflow prevents airborne contaminants from entering the injection site, effectively transforming any standard ophthalmic office into a controlled cleanroom environment. A recent study comparing the microbial load in outpatient clean rooms (OCRs) versus hospital-based operating theaters (HOTs) demonstrated that using a mobile laminar airflow (LAF) system in an OCR significantly reduced air contamination to levels comparable to those in a hospital OR. Intravitreal injections (IVIs) are a critical treatment for retinal diseases such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD), diabetic macular edema (DME), and retinal vein occlusions. While these procedures are routine, they carry a small but serious risk of infection, with endophthalmitis being the most severe complication. Maintaining a sterile, contamination-free environment is essential to ensuring patient safety and reducing the likelihood of postoperative infections. However, many outpatient ophthalmic clinics lack hospital-grade ventilation systems, increasing the risk of airborne contamination during IVIs. Traditional hospital operating theaters (HOTs) provide a controlled, sterile environment, but requiring every IVI to be performed in an HOT can be impractical, costly, and inefficient. The Operio Mobile Laminar Air Flow system provides a game-changing cleanroom-level sterility solution for inoffice IVIs, eliminating 99.995% of airborne bacteria and viruses without the need for major renovations or high-cost infrastructure. read more Operio Focused Laminar Air Flow System: The compact, mobile unit is positioned next to the patient, delivering uninterrupted ISO 5 sterile airflow directly over the patient’s eye and instrument table.
