Eye protection for patients

PENTLAND MEDICAL anaesthesia products offer clinical advantages. Some are patented, but all are dedicated to improving healthcare standards.

Eyegard is a patented solution for protecting patients’ eyes during anaesthesia. Tape does not provide sufficient protection and is not recommended by the AfPP. However, the association’s Standards and Recommendations for Safe Perioperative Practice; Recommendation 2.11.13, states that “eye-pads fit for the purpose” should be used. In fact, the company’s Eyegard literature is endorsed by the AfPP. Recent NICE recommendations on core temperature monitoring during anaesthesia, propose a temperature monitoring regime, ideally suited to Crystaline forehead liquid crystal temperature strips. Other products on show at AfPP include: Shoulder-Float and Pelvic-Tilt patented inflatable patient positioners.
