Dosi-Fuser
This DEHP-free fixed-flow-rate infuser for pain
management features an elastomeric balloon
inside a plastic shell to provide a continuous
flow of medication to targeted areas. It's avail-
able in 13 different designs that infuse
between 100 ml and 250 ml of medication in 12 hours to 7 days. The clear plastic shell
protects the balloon and includes volume markings, which provide patients with an
important visual indicator that the infuser is working. Four models of the 250 ml pumps
have dual catheters, so they can infuse medications to separate
sites.

Mobile Device Disinfection
Tablets and smartphones are becoming commonplace in the OR,
but are they properly disinfected before being used at home? Your
staff and surgeons can send their mobile devices through this unit,
which employs UV-C technology at close proximity to kill bacteria
on surfaces and in crevices where wipes don't necessarily reach.
