Ultraclean air for ophthalmic operating theatre

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document discusses the Operio mobile laminar air flow system, designed to create cleanroom conditions for ophthalmic surgeries, such as intravitreal injections and cataract surgery. It emphasizes the system's ability to provide ultraclean air, significantly reducing the risk of post-surgical infections.
Specifications: Operio is a mobile, cost-effective solution that can be used immediately. It filters 400 m3 of air via HEPA H14 filters, achieving 99.97% efficiency in trapping particles as small as 0.3 microns. In combination with the Operio Clinic, it can filter up to 880 m3 of air. The system is ISO 5 class, ensuring high asepsis levels.
Functionality: The system provides unidirectional air flow over the surgical area and instruments, preventing microorganism sedimentation. It is equipped with electrical height adjustment and can be easily set up in any room, turning it into a cleanroom environment.
Benefits: Operio offers a sterile environment that is up to 100 times cleaner than conventional operating rooms. It is particularly beneficial in ophthalmology, where quick turnover between procedures is common, and maintaining aseptic conditions is challenging. The system is perceived as comfortable by both staff and patients.
Technical Compliance: The devices are CE marked and comply with EU Regulation 2017/745 CE and other relevant standards, ensuring safety and effectiveness.
Studies and Efficacy: Multiple studies have demonstrated the efficacy of Operio in reducing air contamination and improving aseptic conditions in surgical settings. Notable studies include those published in the International Ophthalmology and the Journal of Cataract & Refractive Surgery.

Ultraclean air for ophthalmic operating theatre-1

Ultraclean air for ophthalmic operating theatre Operio mobile laminar air flow creates cleanroom conditions for intravitreal injections and cataract surgery. Operio generates aseptic conditions that is up to 100 times higher than a conventional operating room for eye surgery. Sterile air is obtained with the help of high efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters, laminar air flow system (LAF). The HEPA filter trap 99.97% of particulate of size 0.3 micron (μ). The LAF provides unidirectional air flow towards the instruments and operating field. 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. IVI and cataract surgery with clean room conditions Can be used immediately Mobile Cost effective Plug in solution Many studies available 400 m3 air filtered via hepa filter H14 over instruments and operating field In combination with operio clinic up to 880 m3 filtered hepa air Operio Clinic

Ultraclean air for ophthalmic operating theatre-2

Operio mobile laminar air flow system can be easily wheeled and quickly set up, turning any room into a cleanroom with sterile conditions like an operating theatre. Operio is an ISO 5 class device; it means that it achieves a very high level of asepsis preventing the sedimentation of microorganisms inside the wound. Operio laminar air flow sweeps over the surgical area and instrument area with ultraclean air without turbulence. In this way, it generates a sterile air for the operating field and instruments. The sterile, ultraclean air flow is directed to the instruments and the surgical field...

Ultraclean air for ophthalmic operating theatre-3

Cataract surgery, glaucoma surgery, refractive surgery, etc. The sterility of the surgical field and the instruments is not restricted by the horizontal flow, neither by the surgical microscope nor by the surgical team. Turbulence and germs are largely excluded. This principle achieves up to 95% more “sterility” than with conventional air supply ceilings in the operating theater and on the instruments (see studies). Traditional air flow ceilings only work very limited. When you dry your hair, the hairdryer is very close to your hair to obtain the best result. In a conventional operating room,...

Ultraclean air for ophthalmic operating theatre-4

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 screen) 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....
