SIARE ENGINEERING INTERNATIONAL GROUP s.r.l. is glad to introduce this new product, as the result of 40 years of experience and investment in technological innovation that we are implementing in recent years. Siare has heavily focused on the innovation of materials, ergonomics and ease of use.
Main innovations The Morpheus_ND HYBRID anaesthesia unit represents a true new revolution, engineered with the help of anaesthetists of proven experience aiming to realize a safe device both for the doctor and for the patient. The anaesthesia unit is equipped by a Turbine (hence the name “Morpheus HYBRID”) and provides a double functionality: the traditional gas supply system (Air and Oxygen) and the turbine functioning (in this case it is not necessary a pneumatic Air supply for the movement of the breathing system bellows).
• Standard auxiliary fresh gas outlet • The fresh gas dosing system guarantees maximum safety thanks to the redundant system with double valve and double control. In this way, the supply of oxygen or overdoses of nitrous oxide in the event of a failure will never be interrupted. •...
1.3.2 Lung ventilation module For those who have a basic knowledge on how medical devices for resuscitation work, the use of this equipment is intuitive and a brief training course on regard would be enough. • The lung ventilation module equipped with a 15” colour Touch Screen display, delivers controlled or spontaneous ventilations with a re-adjustable level of end expiration positive pressure (PEEP), of the trigger sensitivity and oxygen concentration.
1.3.4 Trolley (optional) The mechanical structure of the trolley is made with light aluminum alloy uprights and a steel base structure. The base of the base is made of shock-proof ABS with a polyester coating; this guarantees an excellent impact resistance thanks to the flexibility and excellent resistance to abrasion. The dimensions and weight are very limited and allow installation even in small rooms or with restricted work areas.
