Neurosurgical hybrid operating room Operating Room Ventilation System for Neurosurgery ISO 5 The operio mobile laminar air flow system makes it possible to upgrade existing operating theatres from ISO 7 to ISO 5 Operio Sterile Air Flow units are a state-of-the-art laminar flow technology that creates sterile, ultraclean conditions for operating rooms to protect patients from infections. The Operio laminar air flow technology enables cost-effective upgrading of existing operating rooms from ISO 7 to ISO 5. Operio 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 operating room ISO 7 because the sterile air flow protects directly the instruments and the operating area without obstructions – such as operating lights, microscopes or the operating team. The Operio Sterile Air Flow unit filters the ambient air through a highly purifying H 14 Hepa filter with an efficiency of over 99.9%, which eliminates bacteria and micro-organisms (including coronavirus covid 19) by over 99.9%! These units can be positioned to produce a “bacteria-free zone” that offers the greatest possible protection for both the surgical team and the patient, in that they filter 400 m3 of air per hour, thus reducing microorganisms in the entire room. The entirety of a standard practice area of 40 m3 will be completely filtered every 6 mi

Portable laminar air flow for spine surgery 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 microscope. In this way, extremely low-germ air can be created in the area of the operating wound and the instruments, which makes it possible to operate under perfectly hygienic conditions In spine surgery two mobile laminar air flow units are often...

Instruments prepared outside the air supply ceiling of a laminar air flow system (ISO 5) will become contaminated after a short time. The longer the operation lasts, the higher will be the risk of instrument contamination and thus of infection.(Thomas Benen1, Frank Wille1*, Lüder Clausdorff2, The influence of different ventilation systems on microbiological instrument cleanliness Hyg Med 2013; 38-4). Operio or Steristay, you can extend the protective zone into the operating theatre for instrument preparation. The Operio unit and Steristay Instrument Table ensure that instruments and implants...

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, 60 cm and 75 cm for operations that require more instruments. The detachable instrument table can also be attached to any existing instrument table in the O.R. 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...
