Our unique anesthesia technology makes the difference
Safe and easy low-flow anesthesia with Automatic Gas Control (AGC)
Automatic Gas Control (AGC) makes low-flow anesthesia delivery safe. It is an option uniquely available with Flow-i machines. Automation eliminates the need of continuous manual adjustments: with simple pre-settings, specifying the targeted inspired oxygen, end-tidal anesthetic agent levels and required speed, AGC solves the rest. Our innovation offers high precision combined with improved comfort and increased safety.
O₂Guard – active hypoxia prevention: Our O2Guard is the world’s only system for active hypoxia prevention. Should the inspired oxygen level drop below 21%, the O2Guard automatically overrules the settings and increases the flow of oxygen. The risk of hypoxia is minimized.
MAC Brain – better anesthetic agent dosing: For more precise control of depth of anesthesia, we created MAC Brain. A unique tool that visualizes the difference in agent concentration between the lungs and the target organ, the brain. The reliability of the data puts you in control, letting you plan and deliver more efficient dosing of agents with safety and ease.
Lung recruitment – gentle steps against atelectasis: Our lung recruitment maneuvers have become the tool of choice to counter
atelectasis, to improve oxygenation and help prevent postoperative complications. What once was considered complex and time consuming is now seamlessly integrated into your workflow.
Ventilation performance to ICU standards: Innovative Flow Core Technology is designed to promote efficient agent usage, providing the power and precision to ventilate even the most challenging patients. This is due to the combination of our Volume Reflector with its smart re-breathing system and our proven Servo gas modules, adjusting pressure and flow constantly within every breath.
Reduce anesthetic agent
Getinge Anesthesia for a sustainable OR: MAC Brain and AGC are our innovations for control and reduction of anesthestic agent consumption. MAC Brain lets you control the depth of anesthesia, with less risk of overdosing. AGC makes low-flow anesthesia safer and easier – while reducing the use of agent.
Low flow – low impact: With low-flow anesthesia, a lower amount of anesthetic agent is released into the environment, reducing the impact of fluorocarbons and nitrous oxide on the ozone layer, thus reducing the overall greenhouse gas emissions.
Our workstations
User-friendly anesthesia machines in the OR. Developed together with clinicians, Flow Family anesthesia machines are designed to facilitate a great scope for personalization and patient safety. With smart design and a high level of automation, the Flow Family brings smooth workflows to a stressful OR situation, making the clinician confident, responsive and proactive. The ergonomics, Connected Services, and simplified routines and settings made for higher efficiency, a better work environment and improved care outcomes.
Flow-i C20 – Extra storage
Flow-i C20 provides you with the extra storage you need. Choose between two or three drawers.
Flow-i C30 – Ergonomic choice
Flow-i C30 is unique in its height adjustability. Combined with a vast mounting and positioning flexibility you can tailor the machine to suite your working position.
Flow-i C40 -Pendant version
Flow-i C40 is ceiling mounted, offering a two-part circulating radius, which results in a wide spatial range for the unit. The C40 facilitates cleaning and thus contributes to infection control.
