Continuing with its commitment to provide quality care and patient safety, Clínica Ricardo Palma has just purchased advanced technology videoscopes for the Operating Room department

The Ambu aScope 3 videoscopes allow easy access to the respiratory tract to perform intubation, bronchoscopy or to treat cases of secretions, in order to obtain high-resolution images in real time

These devices are compatible with a wide range of endoscopic procedures: from intubation to placement and control of double-lumen probes and bronchial blockers in the operating room

Thanks to its ultra-thin design, the aScope Slim videoscope is ideal for placing (a TE ≥ 5 mm or a TDL ≥ 37 Fr in size), allowing to see the high resolution image of the studied area through its portable monitor and to identify its anatomical characteristics

“This modern videoscope will provide greater patient safety when performing various procedures in the room. In addition, it will guarantee immediate access to more complex procedures, ” says Dr. Edgar Amorín, Thoracic Surgeon at Clínica Ricardo Palma

Doctors Patricia Lucia de la Cruz and Cesar Augusto Alejos were the first to perform surgery, checking at first hand the new equipment benefits
