How is phototherapy measured?

Phototherapy, is the treatment used to decrease bilirubin levels in neonates, based on photo degradation resulting in treatments under light UZ to easily depose. The effectiveness of the treatment will depend on the intensity of the light, regulated by filters of 400 and 550 nm, approaching as close as possible to the blue light. It also influences the intensity of the radiation, regulated by controls of light intensity towards the patient, taking into account the distance between the patient and the light.

How do I use a Turbidity Meter?

A turbidity meter is a laboratory device used to measure the turbidity of a liquid. This equipment has the property of measuring the size and concentration of particles in a suspension by diffusing light into a tube.

What is the optical surgical navitation function?

Computer-assisted surgery are methods of computer technology for the realization and planning of a surgical intervention. Optical surgical navigation is considered, the passage of computer surgery as a traditional basic element resulting in touch control, stereoscopic vision, manual dexterity and complete visual control of the surgical field. 

How is an ultrasound scanner used?

An ultrasound scanner is a specialized medical device that uses ultrasonic waves, i.e. waves with frequencies above the human ear threshold (more than 20,000 cycles per second or 20 kHz) to obtain images of most soft tissues. This instrument provides diagnostic images from the echoes obtained by the emission of these waves.

What are the different types of heating plates that exist?

These are laboratory instruments are small appliances that have one or more elements of electric heating, in addition they have a structure resistant to chemical spills, as well as corrosion; its main purpose is to heat containers of different materials with liquid content, always uniformly and controlled; we can find on the market different models with specific features that will depend on your applications.

Operation lamps: types and models

The lighting of an operating room is one of the essential aspects to consider to achieve success in any of the surgical procedures carried out in these places. This illumination is achieved through the operation lamps which are special lamps designed to illuminate the surgical area, thus providing a bright and uniform illumination centered on the operating table during the surgical act.

What are the uses of an infusion pump?

An infusion pump is a medical device that is used to move the fluids used in medicine (solutions, drugs, blood) through a tube into the patient’s vascular system, allowing more accurate management of the fluids used by doctors. This is why it facilitates the parenteral administration of drugs and solutions, and they are mainly used in conditions where precision and a constant supply of some drug or medicine is essential.

Ultrasound scan: characteristics and types

An ultrasound scanner is a medical device that allows images of most soft tissues to be obtained using ultrasonic waves. This instrument allows obtaining diagnostic images from echoes obtained by the emission of ultrasound waves (the most common).

Microplate washer for ELISA: What types exist?

An ELISA microplate washer is a laboratory equipment used to perform washing operations in the ELISA technique. Washing is one of the key stages to be performed when using the ELISA technique. For this purpose, special solutions are used, among the most used is the phosphate buffer solution or PBS.
