 EXTRACORPORAL MACHINE
• What is the cardiopulmonary bypass machine?
The cardiopulmonary bypass machine is also
called a cardiopulmonary bypass machine. It
assumes the functions of the heart, taking care of
the pumping action and oxygenating the blood.
 ARC IN C
It is a C-arm, mobile, consistent and of high
quality. It is composed of a generator that
produces X-rays that penetrate the
patient's body, becoming a visible image
displayed on the equipment monitor. It
allows efficiency within the operating
room, with image quality that is key.
DOPPLER OBSTETRICO
Doppler flowmetry provides a non-invasive
method used during pregnancy to assess the
blood flow supplying the fetus, by measuring the
vascular resistance in the umbilical artery by
Doppler ultrasound.
OXYGEN CONCENTRATOR
An oxygen concentrator is a medical equipment
that through electricity manages to administer a
higher ratio of dioxygen by volume to a patient, to
compensate for any deficiency (due to injury or
illness, for example) in the uptake of this gas and
increase the efficiency of respiration.
 SEROFUGAS
A centrifuge is a machine that rotates a
sample to separate its components or
phases (generally a solid and a liquid) by
centrifugal force, based on their density. ...
In this case the machine used is called a
microcentrifuge.
 INJECTOR
An injector is an element of the fuel
injection system whose function is to
introduce a certain amount of fuel into
the combustion chamber in pulverized
form, distributing it as homogeneously
as possible within the air contained in
the chamber.
EXIMER LASER UNIT

The Excimer laser is a type of laser that

allows modifying the anterior structure of
the cornea, modifying its curvature, through
the action of an invisible high-energy light.
The objective of its application is that the
patient stops depending on glasses and
contact lenses.
Gardner-Wells tongs

They are clamps that are fixed to the skull of

the immobilized patient with cervical injuries.
They are used to apply traction to reduce a
fracture or dislocation while the patient is
bedridden with a traction device.
gastrostomy tube

A feeding tube is a medical device used

to provide nutrition to patients who are
unable to feed themselves orally, are
unable to swallow safely, or who need
nutritional supplements.
dorsal column stimulator

A spinal cord stimulator is a small, round

device used to treat pain. It is implanted
(surgically placed) under the skin in the
abdomen (belly) or the upper part of the
buttocks and upper part of the spine.
 Dobhoff tube
A Dobhoff tube is a flexible, small-gauge
nasogastric (NG) tube with an inside
diameter of approximately 4 mm (0.16
inches). It is mainly used to administer
nutrients or medications to patients who
cannot take anything by mouth.
cortical bone screw
Screws for the reduction, alignment,
stabilization and temporary or permanent
fixation of bones that have suffered some
type of fracture. They can be used
individually or associated with the bone
card. They all have washers of different
lengths.
Codman Hakim programmable valve

CODMAN HAKIM programmable valves are

implantable devices that provide constant
intraventricular pressure and CSF drainage
for the management of hydrocephalus.
