Patient Benefits

The Insuflow^® device pre-conditions cold, dry CO₂ gas from 70^oF and 0% relative humidity (RH) to 95^oF and 95% RH providing patients with a quicker recovery both at the hospital and at home.

95^oF and 95% RH = A BALANCED PNEUMOPERITONEUM AND OPERATING ENVIRONMENT

Patient benefits from this balance of 95% RH and 95^oF are proven:

• Reduction in cell desiccation
• Reduction in inflammatory response (IL-6 and CRP)
• Reduction of shoulder pain
• Reduction in peritoneal drying
• Reduction of hypothermia by maintaining a core body temperature
• Reduction in post-operative opioid analgesics and antiemetics
• Reduction in the incidence of nausea
• Reduction in recovery room time
• Reduction in overall hospital stay
• Reduction in overall cost per procedure
• And, improves overall visualization for your surgeon

If your surgeon is suggesting a Laparoscopic Surgery or Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) for you or one of your family members, ask for the Insuflow^® technology to be utilized during your procedure so you can experience less post-operative pain, a quicker overall recovery and return to your normal daily activities faster.  The Insuflow^® device can be used during any laparoscopic procedure including:

• Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy (removal of diseased gallbladder)
• Laparoscopic Appendectomy (removal of diseased appendix)
• Laparoscopic Hernia Repair (all kinds of hernia repair)
• Laparoscopic Nissen Fundoplication (for gastro esophageal reflux disease)
• Laparoscopic Gastric Banding (laparoscopic treatment for morbid obesity)
• Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y (laparoscopic treatment for morbid obesity)
• Laparoscopic Colectomy (for malignant as well as benign diseases of colon)
• Tubal Ligation
• Laparoscopic Assisted Vaginal Hysterectomy (LAVH)
• Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy (TLH)
• Laparoscopic Salpingo-Oophorectomy (removal of ovaries)
• Laparoscopic Adhesions Removal
• Laparoscopic Nephrectomy (removal of kidney)
• Laparoscopic-Assisted Colon Resection
• Diagnostic Laparoscopy (for undiagnosed troublesome abdominal issues)
• Laparoscopic Prostatectomy

And many other Laparoscopic or Laparoscopic-Assisted Surgeries

WOMEN

Utilizing the Insuflow^® device during your upcoming laparoscopic surgery will help prevent cell desiccation, a precursor to adhesion formation.

Up to 93% of patients are afflicted with adhesions after abdominal surgery.  Much of the cause lies in the extremely delicate nature of the peritoneum.  The warm, wet, single cell peritoneum is frequently traumatized during laparoscopic surgery whenever bone dry gas –whether warm or cold—is used.  Apposition of injured peritoneal surfaces nearly always results in adhesions, which are the leading cause of intestinal obstruction.

Learn more about adhesions, what they are and how they can affect pelvic pain and fertility.  Visit the International Adhesion Society website.
