What is N2O, Nitrous Oxide?
It is a colourless non-flammable gas that has significant medical uses. It is a mild Anaesthetic that due to cost, safety and ease of use makes it widely used.
When is N2O used in healthcare?
Nitrous Oxide is a gas with analgesic and anxiolytic properties, it is widely used as treatment during labour, pediatrics treatments, process pains, dental surgery as well as in emergency rooms and other settings where fast, reliable, and harmless relief is needed.
What are the work and environmental concerns of N2O?
Nitrous Oxide is a gas that, if not collected and destructed, has a negative impact on the climate as well as for the staff administering it. N2O is 298 times more potent than CO2 (Carbon Dioxide), hence the need for Nitrous Oxide collection and destruction technology is important.
What types of solutions do Medclair offer?
At Medclair we have developed a technology that can be centrally installed operating several treatment rooms at once as well as a mobile unit that easily can be moved from room to room. We can offer systems for high-flow environment or our own patented low-flow system.
Does Medclair solve all N2O concerns in healthcare?
We address all major concerns regarding patients, work environment and general emissions associated with Nitrous Oxide. We measure, collect, and destruct the gas with our technology.
How effective is the CDU (Central Destruction Unit)?
One single central unit can effectively destruct emissions from 16 treatment rooms, these can be combined to handle even larger volumes. It purifies the collected N2O to a degree of minimum 96 %.
How effective is the MDU (Mobile Destruction Unit)?
The MDU operates at a efficiency level above 99 %. Due to its mobile use, it is easy to move around from patient to patient.
