Plastic Surgery & Coronavirus: how to protect healthcare professionals and patients
Are masks and gloves sufficient to be safe? How to further protect healthcare professionals and patients from contracting Coronavirus.
Surgical masks and FFP2 / FFP3 have been shown to achieve a tightness of only 70%. The cause is the loss that occurs on the edge of the mask. The air that passes through the edge is sucked in more easily due to the lack of resistance, compared to the inspiration of the air that passes through the material of the mask and sometimes, even in greater quantities. TOUL - Focused laminar flow produces an ultra-clean and horizontal laminar air flow that is directed on the instrument table and / or on the surgical site, minimizing the presence of bacteria and microorganisms (including Coronavirus SARS-CoV-2) offering the maximum possible protection both for the surgical team and for the patient. Toul filters an air volume of 400m3 / h and therefore significantly reduces the microorganisms of the whole environment in which it is positioned ... for a standard 60 m3 clinic, it means that all the room air is filtered every 10 minutes approximately. ..! TOUL guarantees effective air filtering by guaranteeing the aseptic standards of the most modern operating rooms (ISO 5), without time limits. No plant engineering work is necessary for installation. The device does not require any installation work, but only a common socket.
