About SODALIME (VENTISORB FLEXICARE)

Colour Change Indicator

VentiSorb is available in two different colour options, giving clear visual indications of the level of active soda lime remaining available for CO2 absorption. both conforming to International Standards. When exhausted, VentiSorb will change colour, indicating that the soda lime needs to be replaced. This should be used alongside CO2 monitoring to confirm compound exhaustion.

High Hardness, Low Dust

Ventisorb is resistant to dust formation in comparison to other granular soda lime absorbents.

Superior Performance in Medical Settings

SODALIME (VENTISORB FLEXICARE) is purpose-built for use in critical medical settings, such as hospital operating rooms and intensive care units. Its advanced composition ensures rapid and efficient carbon dioxide absorption during anesthesia and respiratory procedures, supporting patient care and staff safety. The pre-packed cartridge design allows for quick replacement, minimizing downtime and maintaining optimal equipment function.

User-Friendly and Safe Operation

This medical-grade soda lime provides visual confirmation of exhaustion with a clear purple-pink color change, indicating when replacement is necessary. The product is silent during operation, generates minimal dust, and is non-toxic, promoting a safe working environment. Its portability and compatibility with major anesthesia and ventilator systems make it highly versatile in demanding healthcare environments.

FAQ's of SODALIME (VENTISORB FLEXICARE):

Q: How does SODALIME (VENTISORB FLEXICARE) indicate when it needs replacement?

A: This soda lime contains an ethyl violet chemical indicator that changes color from white to pink or purple as it absorbs carbon dioxide. The color change signals when the granules are exhausted and the cartridge or packet should be replaced.

Q: What is the process for using SODALIME in an anesthesia or ventilator system?

A: Simply insert the pre-packed cartridge or packet into the compatible soda lime canister of your anesthesia or ventilator machine. Monitor the color for exhaustion and replace as necessary. No special power source is needed as CO2 absorption occurs chemically during medical procedures.

Q: Where is SODALIME (VENTISORB FLEXICARE) most commonly used?

A: It is primarily used in hospitals, operation theaters, and intensive care units. The product is suitable for both anesthesia machines and respiratory care equipment where carbon dioxide removal is essential.

Q: When should the SODALIME cartridge or packet be replaced?

A: Replace the cartridge or packet when the granules shift from white to a purple-pink color, as this indicates the absorbent capacity has been reached. Always follow manufacturer recommendations for routine checks during clinical use.

Q: What benefits does SODALIME (VENTISORB FLEXICARE) offer over traditional CO2 absorbents?

A: This product delivers efficient CO2 absorption, low dust generation, and clear color change for exhaustion. It is high-purity, non-toxic, and compatible with most anesthesia systems, ensuring safety and convenience in clinical practice.

Q: How should SODALIME be stored when not in use?

A: Store unopened cartridges or packets in a cool, dry place with the container tightly closed. Proper storage helps preserve the soda lime's effectiveness for up to two years.
