Foot switch designed for long-lasting use
[black small square] The Linemaster Lektro-Lok foot switch from Linemaster Switch Corp is designed with heavy steel painted housing built for ease of use and long life. This rocker-style switch has a mechanical interlock that prevents both circuits from being operated at the same time. A twin model is available to meet nearly all medical and light-duty applications.
The Lektro-Lok is used for numerous applications to operate surgical equipment such as medical tables, lifts, and cameras. Special options include a splash-proof interior switch rated to IP21 standards, custom labeling or paint finishes, and cord sets built to customer specifications.
Phlebectomy instruments in new shapes, sizes
[black small square] VNUS Medical Technologies offers a wide selection of phlebectomy instruments in various shapes and sizes to improve current techniques. The smooth-curve instruments feature a straight shaft designed for placement under a vein and lifting upwards. The design also helps the user avoid hooking dermis or other tissues. The sharp-tipped instruments offer small, fine tips to pierce and exteriorize the vein, reducing trauma to the surrounding tissues. Ideal for smaller veins, the hook angle facilitates dissection. In addition, the crochet-style instruments feature an alternate tip style to the smooth and sharp-tipped versions. Finally, the double-ended instruments are actually two instruments in one. The flat spatula tip is especially ideal for dissecting tissue.
All instruments are made of high-quality surgical-grade stainless steel, and the unique octagonal handle design permits the user to roll the instrument between the fingers, which reduces wrist stress.
Bronchoscope enhances optical performance
[black small square] Olympus offers the BF-3C40 OES Slim Fiber Bronchoscope, which features better optical performance than previous Olympus models, due to the use of extra-fine optical fibers. The fibers increase resolution and enlarge the image size by 70%. Combined with a small diameter (3.3 mm across), the scope is ideal for diagnosing bronchial problems in both children and adults.
The bronchoscope is designed with a wide 120[degrees] field of view, which provides an expanded viewing tip bending range of 180[degrees] up and 130[degrees] down. In addition, suction and biopsy valves allow efficient bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) testing.
Sleeves protect pediatric limbs
[black small square] Delfi Limb Protection Sleeve by Delfi Medical Innovations, Inc. is designed to help protect a child's limb from possible wrinkling, pinching, and shearing of skin and soft tissues.
Each sleeve is intended for use with a specific Delfi Pediatric Tourniquet Cuff. Within the range of limb sizes recommended for the matching cuff, the sleeve helps to protect the limb's soft tissues underneath the cuff while applying a low pressure. In addition, the specially tapered end of the sleeve is designed to protect the limb from the cuff's tubing connectors. OR
