A full range of C-PEEP fixed value valves, CPAP breathing systems, twin-port masks and harnesses for use in continuous positive airway pressure, have been launched by Intersurgical, to complement its comprehensive range of respiratory products.
C-PEEP valves – This new range includes seven PEEP valves, ranging from 2.5 to 20cm H2O. Each valve is colour-coded in line with similar products currently on the market. ‘Intersurgical valves are 100% tested and individually identified with a code on the valve itself, so that performance data is available for future reference,’ the company points out. ‘The valve bodies are manufactured from clear material, showing the internal components, allowing monitoring of patient breath rate and for blockage assessment.’

CPAP Breathing systems - Twelve new CPAP breathing systems offer active and passive humidification options, with a mask or T-piece patient connection compatible with the most common types of flow drivers currently found in hospital departments.

The systems are designed for immediate use, straight from the pack, including PEEP valves, masks, harnesses and safety valves, if needed. There are two available types, one for flow drivers requiring an external safety valve, the other for flow drivers with a built in safety valve, reducing unwanted components.

CPAP mask and harness - The Twin-port CPAP mask - sizes: small and medium/large adult - offers a comfortable interface to a patient, Intersurgical points out. ‘The soft anatomically shaped cushion will comfortably fit a wide range of patient faces.’
