Universal Stylet Bougie (USB™)

Introducing the USB - a hybrid stylet and bougie.

The unique design of the USB incorporates two metal inserts either side a more flexible middle section. The USB can easily be manipulated to a variety of angles when used as a stylet, yet has the flexibility when used as a bougie to provide a significantly enhanced level of tracheal ring feedback. In addition, the hexagonal shape provides less contact with the inner surface of the tracheal tube, providing particularly easy insertion and removal.

The USB offers a number of key advantages over traditional bougies and stylets:

Hybrid bougie and stylet
Improved insertion and removal
Improved storage
Improved tracheal ring detection

The Universal Stylet Bougie, or USB, represents a significant advance in the design and development of tracheal introducers (bougies) and stylets.

i-Pro™ medical mask and i-Pro™ Vision visor

Introducing our new Personal Respiratory Protective range.

Over the course of the pandemic, the need for personal protection as solutions for infection control has significantly increased to ensure the safety of both patients and healthcare workers. In response, we have developed two new products forming part of our new Personal Protective range, which includes the i-Pro™ medical mask and the i-Pro™ Vision protective visor.

i-Pro ™ medical mask
The new i-Pro™ mask is designed with suitability for clinicians working within the clinical environment in mind. Traditional personal protective masks were originally designed to be used in the industrial environment and are therefore not always suited for the population of healthcare workers, this has resulted in a number of reported issues. Using our breathing system filter media, with proven bacterial and viral efficiency in the clinical environment, and a soft, flexible TPE seal, featured in our range of respiratory products, the i-Pro™ mask combines a high level protection with a comfortable and effective fit.

i-Pro ™ Vision protective visor
The i-Pro™ Vision protective visor has fully re-useable headwear providing an over-head cradle with three point adjustment and multiple comfort features, designed for use in the clinical setting. The anti-fog visor provides optimum visibility, with a full range of movement and is easily replaced providing a more environmentally friendly solution to protective wear. The visor is easily replaceable to reduce unnecessary waste and provides a more environmentally friendly solution to protective wear.

The introduction of the i-Pro ™ medical mask and i-Pro™ Vision is an exciting step for Intersurgical into personal protection, designed specifically for clinical personnel.

Please visit the product pages or the dedicated website page for further details.

New addition to our HME range

We are delighted to introduce the latest addition to our HME range – InterTherm™ T HME.

The Inter-Therm T™ is a heat and moisture exchanger (HME) designed for use with spontaneously breathing patients in order to reduce loss of heat and moisture during respiration, ideal for patients and clinicians caring for patients living with a tracheostomy. Small and lightweight, the new InterTherm™ T features a unique white corrugated paper HME design to provide the perfect combination between humidification output and low resistance to flow.

Visit our website product page or our dedicated filtration and humidification website page for more information about the InterTherm™ T range. If you have any further queries, please contact us.

New nFlow™ CosyFit™ infant nasal CPAP breathing system

We are pleased to introduce our new CosyFit™ bonnets and breathing systems to our existing nFlow™ infant nasal CPAP range.

The Intersurgical nFlow system offers a complete care solution for infant CPAP with established ‘gas flip’ technology, providing a low ‘work of breathing’ option as an alternative to ventilator CPAP. The nFlow system is supplied assembled with generator, heated wire limb and 10mm adjustable Superset style exhaust tube for efficient gas removal.

The new nFlow™ CosyFit bonnet makes attaching to the generator simple and precise and helps create a secure yet gentle fit for even the most sensitive patients. The new bonnet tie now has sealed edges to improve fabric stability and strength and we have changed the colour from white to grey to more easily distinguish between the new white nFlow™ CosyFit ties.

We’ve made ordering easy. To make a complete system you can choose one product from breathing systems (group A) and bonnets (group B), and choose a patient interface from nasal masks (group C) and/or nasal prongs (group D) to make your system. Our patient interfaces (masks and prongs) and CosyFit bonnets are supplied separately, so can be ordered separately as needed, plus it avoids unnecessary waste.

Our original nFlow™ range will remain available alongside the new nFlow™ CosyFit range.

Visit our website product page or our landing page for more information about the nFlow™ range or m ake an enquiry.
