Accessoires en disposables

Disposable canisters

Available in 300ml, 800ml and 2-litre capacities to optimise drainage procedure and reduce the amount of biohazardous waste.

All three sizes are available with or without solidifier, providing a hygienic and cost-effective option for disposing of patient fluid disposal.

Tubing
The dual-lumen tubing provides continuous pressure monitoring close to the patient’s chest to provide early warning of potential harmful situations.

Two types of connectors are available (single or double) in small, medium or large sizes to match the chest tube being used.

All Thopaz⁺ tubing connectors contain a port for convenient sampling of drainage fluid.

Docking Station
The docking station for Thopaz⁺ generally requires one-time set up, allowing the device to be recharged without the need to handle cables and an external power adapter. Can be equipped with adapter for the 2 l canister.

Holder with Standard Rail
For the easy attachment of Thopaz+ to rails, beds or IV poles. Can be fixed vertically or horizontally.

Universal Holder with Flexible Standard Rail
For the easy attachment of Thopaz+ to rails, beds or IV poles. Infinitely variable adjustment of rail inclination (360°).

Carrying strap
The carrying strap for Thopaz+ offers the patient convenience, comfort and full mobility

Maak ontslag op dag 1 werkelijkheid!

Patiënten die vroeg werden ontslagen, rapporteerden een beter herstel, wat ontslag op postoperatieve dag 1 (POD 1) ondersteunt als een veilige en effectieve strategie in geselecteerde gevallen.

Deze studie beoordeelde de veiligheid en herstelkwaliteit van ontslag op POD 1 na een subxifoïdale thoracoscopische anatomische longresectie binnen een ERAS-programma met een digitaal drainageprotocol.
Van de 201 patiënten konden 56% veilig worden ontslagen op POD 1, met lage complicatie- en heropnamepercentages. Vroege verwijdering van de thoraxdrain (luchtlek < 20 ml/min gedurende 4 uur zonder vloeistofdrempel) en opioïdvrije pijnbestrijding waren sleutelfactoren.

Tijd om uw verwijderingscriteria voor thoraxdrains te herzien!

Thopaz⁺ ondersteunt de overgang naar minimaal of geen routinematig gebruik van thoraxdrains, zelfs bij grotere longoperaties, voor sneller herstel en mogelijk ontslag op dezelfde dag.

Een recente literatuurstudie onderzoekt het optimale moment voor verwijdering van de thoraxdrain na een anatomische longresectie. De resultaten tonen aan dat gebruik van uitsluitend het luchtlekcriterium - digitaal gemeten - als belangrijkste parameter veilige verwijdering mogelijk maakt vanaf postoperatieve dag 1 in de meeste gevallen.

Thopaz⁺ in de praktijk: de ervaring van Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust

Bij Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust heeft Thopaz⁺ aanzienlijke klinische en operationele voordelen aangetoond, die ver uitstijgen boven de cardiothoracale chirurgie. De implementatie binnen de afdelingen longziekten, intensive care (CCU/ICU), trauma, gastro-enterologie, kindergeneeskunde en neurowetenschappen onderstreept de veelzijdigheid en brede toepasbaarheid van Thopaz⁺ bij het beheren van thoraxdrainage in uiteenlopende patiëntengroepen.

Beoordelingen van klanten

"The use of Thopaz+ can take the surgeon beyond the 24-hour limit for drain removal, using criteria in minutes rather than days.

It also facilitates safe day-case thoracic surgery and is an essential component of a modern thoracic surgery programme"

Professor Eric Lim MB ChB MD MSc FRCS(C-Th), Consultant Thoracic Surgeon, Royal Brompton Hospital Professor of Thoracic Surgery, Imperial College London

"Our experience with Thopaz+ has completely changed our patient's monitoring, allowing us to know their status hour by hour as if we were at their side 24 hours a day.
With this, we have achieved a shorter hospital stay with the maximum level of assurance at discharge."

Concepción Partida González, Thoracic Surgeon. University Hospital La Paz, Madrid, Spain

"Thopaz+ allows complete patient mobility and independence while the chest drain is still in situ, thereby realizing the full potential of the minimally invasive surgery we are performing"

Dr. Alan Sihoe, Clinical Associate Professor, Department of Surgery, The University of Hong Kong
