Product catalog summary
Introduction
The document discusses the use of Focus Laminar Air Flow systems combined with high-efficiency HEPA filters to create sterile environments, particularly in medical settings. This technology is crucial in scenarios such as natural disasters, terrorist attacks, and wars where immediate medical assistance is required.

Specifications and Benefits
  • Reduces the risk of infections by 95%.
  • Ensures sterility of the operating field even in extreme conditions.
  • Can be deployed immediately without waiting time.
  • Reduces surgical field and instrument contamination by up to 95%.
  • Complies with ISO class 5 standards for extreme sterile conditions.

Comparison with Conventional Ventilation Systems
  • Conventional systems direct air towards the floor, leading to contamination risks.
  • Focus Laminar Air Flow directs sterile air directly onto surgical instruments and sites, reducing bacterial load significantly.
  • Conventional systems have a bacterial load of 63.5 - 381 CFU/m3, whereas Focus Laminar Air Flow achieves 0.2-0.52 CFU/m3.

Operational Procedures
  • Instruments are prepared in zones protected by the laminar air flow unit to maintain sterility.
  • The system allows for electrical height adjustment for optimal operation conditions.
  • Mobile units ensure flexibility and compliance with medical standards.

Traceability and Compliance
  • The system includes a barcoded sterile cover for traceability in defensive medicine.
  • Operio is marked and complies with the Medical Device Directive 93/42 EEC.

Conclusion
Focus Laminar Air Flow systems provide a highly effective solution for maintaining sterility in medical environments, significantly reducing infection risks and ensuring compliance with stringent medical standards.

Focus laminar air flow Conventional ventilation system Bacterial load after 60 min. Bacterial load after 60 min. 0,2- 0,52 CFU/m3 (*1) Focused laminar flow systems: the air is filtered through hepa filters free of microorganisms and then directed immediately onto the surgical instruments and surgical site. It is only then distributed throughout the operating theatre. This protects the critical area of the operating theatre, i.e. the instruments and the surgical site. With this system, the bacterial load on the instruments and surgical site is reduced by more than 95% compared with conventional...
