PneuVIEW® XE™
P/N 9660-XE
More innovative medical technology by LEXION Medical.
PneuView® XE™ offers increased surgical smoke elimination with the push of a button. Ideal for robotic assisted laparoscopy.
Read the AORN Position Statement on Surgical Smoke and Bio-Aerosols.
PneuView® XE™ eliminates the toxic by-products from laser tissue combustion including:
- Carbon monoxide
- Creosol
- Phenol
- Polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons
- Hydrogen cyanide
- Acrolein
- Formaldehyde
which coincidentally are the same toxic materials found in cigarette smoke.
Healthcare workers and patients both are exposed to these toxic by-products during laparoscopy. Surgical masks when sealed air tight protect against particulates to 0.3 microns but do not afford control of volatile chemicals, vapors or aerosols.
However, elimination with PneuView® XE™ will reduce exposure to these materials and therefore reduce the effects of CO poisoning including:
- Headaches
- Tinnitus
- Shortness of Breath
- Lower Extremity weakness
- Dyspnea
- Impaired judgement
- Clumsiness
- Palpitations
- Chest pain
- Abdominal pain
- Diarrhea
- Nausea
- Vomiting
Sterile, disposable, quiet and cost effective. PneuVIEW® and PneuView® XE™ comply with AORN Recommended Practices for Electrosurgery, 2003 and OSHA Standards for Laser Smoke Removal. PneuView® XE™ will not cause pressure drop associated with filter media saturation.
