Filtresse™ Surgical Smoke Evacuation Systems

Filtresse™ is a low-cost surgical smoke evacuation system that is ideal for office-based electrosurgery or laser surgery.

The smoke plume generated during electrosurgery and laser surgery is a potential infection concern for both operators and patients. Elimination of the offensive and potentially infectious smoke plume from the surgical room is considered essential by many clinical and regulatory organizations, and requires an efficient and reliable filtration system.

The Filtresse™ Smoke Filtration System integrates the highest standards of smoke plume evacuation and filtration into one compact, quiet and portable unit. A three stage disposable filter system is composed of a High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) pre-filter, a layer of activated charcoal for odor absorption, and a third stage Ultra Low Penetration Air (ULPA) filter. This design achieves a filtration efficiency of >99.999% on 0.1 µm particles, achieving the desired environment for both patients and clinicians with the added benefit of an attractively low cost per procedure.

• Three-stage disposable filter system efficiently removes odors and particulate matter, and reduces operational costs.
• Easily attaches to most wands and instruments, to yield quick smoke plume evacuation at the source.
• Variable motor speed provides flow rate adjustability and enhanced noise suppression.
• Pneumatic footswitch provides easy, hands-free operation.
• Compact, portable and stylish design uses little office space.
