Sterile air in ophthalmic surgery operation theater Operio mobile laminar air flow creates cleanroom conditions for intravitreal injections and cataract surgery. Operio generates on the instruments and in the operating field aseptic conditions that is up to 100 times higher than in a conventional operating room for eye surgery. Operio mobile laminar air flow system is a very cost-effective system to obtain Cleanroom conditions for ophthalmic surgery without any construction work. Sterile air is an indispensable requirement for the smooth functioning of an ophthalmic operation theatre (OT). Unsterile air has been believed to be a major cause of outbreaks of post-surgical infections. Operio can be easily wheeled and quickly set up, turning any room into a cleanroom with sterile conditions like an ultramodern operating theatre. Operio is an ISO 5 class device; The Operio HEPA filters trap 99.97% of particulate of size 0.3 micron (μ). They achieve this by various mechanisms like direct impaction, sieving, interception and diffusion. Most microbes are in range of 0.5 to 5 μ in size. Operio provides unidirectional air flow towards OT table and instruments . The sterile air flow is directly directed to the instruments and the surgical field without any obstacles such as the surgical microscope or the surgical team and hence creates an extreme high level of asepsis which was so far hardly obtainable! The sterile OP-Air Flow device Operio enables inexpensive aseptic conditions to be created for operations and intravitreal injections in eye surgery. Operio works with high-purifying Hepa H 14 filters which purify the air in the operating room and on the instruments practically completely (99.995%) of bacteria and other microorganisms Operio sterile Air Flow is perceived by the staff as very pleasant because it does not generate cold air.

Prevention of postoperative infections in ophthalmic surgery Operio sterile Laminar Air flow unit for Ophthalmic Operating Theatre eliminates over 99.9% of all bacteria’s during surgery also Covid-19 and other microorganisms. Postoperative endophthalmitis is typically caused by the perioperative introduction of microbial organisms during surgery. Operio sterile Air Flow: the device works with high-purifying Hepa H 14 filters which purify the air in the operating room and on the instruments practically completely (99.9%) of bacteria, viruses (also coronavirus SARSCoV-2) and other microorganisms....

Conventional mixed ventilation Conventional mixed ventilation systems in which air flows in from the ceiling and flows out at points in the upper and lower parts of the wall create diffuse turbulent air that mixes and dilutes particles throughout the room. A conventional mixed ventilation operating room air, creates multiple particles that come from droplets, skin scales, the patients, instruments, which is a potential source for surgical site infection in a lot of specialties, as well as patient, doctor and staff infections. Operio laminar air flow: the sterility of the surgical field and the...

Instrument preparation With Operio, the instruments and implants can always be prepared in the protected area with the sterile Air Flow device. Then the operating instrument table is simply moved to the operating area and the protection area is then expanded to include also the operating area. An ultra-clean airflow from the ceiling downward may convey airborne particles from the surgical team into the wound, thus increasing the risk of infection. The mobile clean air zone unit ensures that the surgical site and instruments kept nearby on trays remain sterile during the entire surgical procedure....

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....
