Shielding patients from harmful air everywhere.
Innovation is the process that translates knowledge into economic growth and social well-being. As the demand for health care is on the rise, so is the desire for effective innovative medical solutions.
The ‘Operation Balloon’ protects patients by shielding the instruments and the incisions from the outside air. Small sterile volumes are created at the exact locations were these are needed. This greatly reduces the risk of infections caused by external sources. Performing minimally-invasive surgery (key-hole surgery) safely outside the operation theatre is now a possibility. The ‘Operation Balloon’ will have a large impact on upcoming developing countries. In the western world the ‘Operation Baloon’ will become a standard safety measure to increase patient safety.
