Improving air quality standard in the cardiac catheterization laboratory Operio laminar air flow systems enable cost-effective upgrading of existing cardiac catheterization laboratory and cardiac cath (heart cath) . Operio create an asepsis for the instruments and operating area (and that’s what matters!) that is up to 100 times higher than in a conventional cardiac catheterization laboratory. Operio focused laminar flow creates a strictly aseptic space, by removing 99.9% of airborne bacteria and micro-organisms, including Covid-19 during pacemaker insertion Operio laminar air flow systems enable costeffective upgrading of existing cardiac catheterization laboratory and cardiac cath (heart cath) . Operio create an asepsis for the instruments and operating area (and that’s what matters!) that is up to 100 times higher than in a conventional cardiac catheterization laboratory, because the sterile air flow directly and immediately protects the instruments and the operating area without obstructions – such as the operating microscope or the operating team Infection is the most serious complication of CIED implantation and requires explantation of all hardware, with fatalities occurring in 3–19% of patients. Invasive procedures are becoming increasingly common in cardiology and interventional radiology operating rooms, and they may expose patients to a higher risk of hospital infect

Guidelines for prevention and management of implantable cardiac electronic device-related infection The incidence of infection following implantation of cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) is increasing at a faster rate than that of device implantation. Patients with a CIED infection usually require hospitalisation and complete device and lead removal. A significant proportion die from their infection. Operio Sterile Air Flow unit creates an asepsis for the instruments and operating area (and that’s what matters!) that is up to 100 times higher than in a conventional cardiac catheterization...

Focus laminar air flow operating room The focus-oriented, mobile laminar air flow devices generate an ultraclean, germ-free air flow by filtering the air with a Hepa H14 filter, which can be aimed precisely at the desired operating field area. The “sterile air flow” is not hindered neither by the operating theater lights nor by the operating theater team. In this way, extremely low-germ air can be created in the area of the operating theater and the instruments, which makes it possible to operate under perfectly hygienic conditions Conventional air flow systems Umbrella effect: the C-arm shields...

Technical specifications The Operio devices are extremely small and handy and can also be used in very small rooms. The removable instrument table from Operio is available in various lengths of 45 cm (for intravitreal injections), 60 cm (for ophthalmic operations and intravitreal injections) and 75 cm (for operations that require a lot of instruments). The electrical height adjustment can be carried out by the sterile OR staff (using a sterile covered display) as well as by the other OR staff using a separate display. There is no need to purchase a separate instrument table for storing the instruments....
