Medical oxygen

Used for resuscitation, inhalation therapy, life support, and reducing surgical wound infections. Also used to support most anaesthetic techniques and improve oxygen availability in a range of conditions, including cardio-pulmonary disease, trauma, shock, and carbon monoxide poisoning.

Synthetic medical air

Used as a replacement for contaminated air, a carrier gas for anaesthesia, a power source for pneumatic equipment, and to provide controlled airflow in ventilators and incubators.

Medical carbon dioxide

Used for increasing depth of anaesthesia, intubation, vasodilation, cerebral blood flow, respiratory stimulation, and investigations, as well as for minimally invasive surgery and tissue freezing techniques.

Medical helium

Used with 21% oxygen to improve gas flow for patients with severe respiratory obstruction or to prevent atelectasis. It’s also used in lung function tests with various concentrations of air or oxygen.

Medical nitrous oxide

Used together with inhalation anaesthetics, for pain relief in emergencies and short-term medical procedures, in dental work, and occasionally in laparoscopy.

Inhaled nitric oxide

Used in intensive care units on both adults and children, Inhaled Nitric Oxide Therapy (INO) helps patients with difficulty breathing. In INO improves blood flow and oxygenation in the body by reducing pulmonary (lung) pressure.

ENTONOX^®

Used to relieve pain during medical procedures and tests, including labour. It’s commonly used for acute trauma, dental work, procedures involving pain and to temporarily relieve pain from surgical or medical conditions.

HELIOX21 (mixture of medical helium and oxygen)

Used to support patients with respiratory conditions by reducing the effort of breathing and assisting oxygen flow into the alveoli. It’s specifically indicated for patients with severe airway obstruction in the upper or lower respiratory tract.
