Amneal

The OR tools that make procedures safe in a patient’s surgical journey are often the unsung heroes of ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs) across the nation. Amneal’s tamper-evident prefilled syringes make safety visible – and also makes their administration effortless. The V-OVS^® closure uses a tilt, snap and lift action to open thereby offering safety and ease of use for the OR staff.

Amneal’s prefilled syringes with V-OVS^® closures are designed with built-in protection delivering visible, tamper-evident security with every dose. The tilt-off cap snaps open, breaking the integrated seal to confirm sterility in an instant. That simple action gives providers the confidence that what they’re administering is exactly as it should be: safe, sterile and uncompromised. The physical snap confirms that this product is safe to use without any extra packaging seals.

Thanks to its streamlined design, there’s no need for overwraps or sealed trays to ensure integrity. For the cost-conscious ASC leader, this product design means less packaging waste, a reduced storage footprint and a more efficient path from pharmacy to bedside.

One of the most trusted names in the industry, Ameal’s mission is to “make healthy possible” with its products and solutions for the OR team. For more information click here and click here to view a video on how to open these prefilled syringes.

Thinking of Buying Patient Positioning Solutions

The comfort of the patient is paramount during any surgical procedure, but just as important is the control the surgeon experiences as the surgery occurs. Patient positioning tools are key to allowing both comfort and control.

Advances in technology and design have provided the tools that are available on the market today. The outpatient facility teams that keep abreast of the latest equipment for patient positioning can appreciate them. In particular, orthopedic surgeries can be successfully executed with these products that offer secure holds and ease of use for the surgical team.

Here’s a selection of patient positioning solutions on the market that provide what is needed for efficient and safe patient care.
