The Royal College of Anaesthetists have created some useful learning guides to help young people understand anaesthesia. These have been created particularly for young people and have been written by a team of parents, play specialists and doctors, with advice from hundreds of young people aged 4 years and upwards.
Our new 2011 product catalogue is now available as a 'flip through' online version. You can browse through the pages and see all of our product range selection in easy to read sections. It's now even easier to find products based on the features that you need. You can also ask your local representative for a hard copy if you wish.
Once again we'll be exhibiting at this year's ESA annual conference. Euroanaesthesia brings together thousands of professionals, practitioners, academics and industry representatives. We'll be showcasing our latest product offerings on stand 02.206. If you're attending the event then please come over and say hello!
As part of our ongoing commitment to corporate social responsibility Intersurgical offered to help out the local volunteer centre in Wokingham.
Nine employees spent a day in December tidying up a sensory garden which is used by patients at Wokingham Hospital. All agreed it was a very rewarding day and a chance to work out in the (very cold!) open air for these office-bound individuals!
The Association of Anaesthetists of Great Britain & Ireland have issued a safety statement recommending the need for the monitoring of ETCO2 in sedated patients:
"Because of the recognised safety advantages of using capnography in these situations, it is difficult to justify not using it when caring for patients in similar circumstances throughout the hospital."
At Intersurgical we understand that each patient and clinical situation is different. Our aim is to provide a solution for all of your humidification requirements, active or passive, for both ventilated and spontaneously breathing patients. Whichever route you take we can help you along the way.
A few years ago we produced a colouring book to help children during their stay in hospital. The story is about a bear who goes into hospital for an operation and has a happy experience. The adventures of Baggins proved so popular that we also made a bravery certificate for children to take home with them.

The new oral care product range is designed to reduce the risk of cross-infection and provide complete oral hygiene in the Intensive Care environment. Two product options are available: OroClean Complete, a complete system for oral care, and OroCare 2, a system that incorporates a mouthwash and allows cleaning and suctioning with a single device. OroFill mouthwash is included with the OroCare 2 but vials can be ordered separately. Take a look at the products and download the free Oral Care assessment guide and protocol.
