Glostavent^® Helix Duo

Derived from the renowned Glostavent anaesthesia range, the Glostavent^® Helix Duo incorporates the same key characteristics of the Glostavent^® Helix with the additional advantage of two, low resistance, draw over vaporisers. The twin vaporisers permit the safe delivery of a gaseous induction using Sevoflurane before switching to the more cost-effective Isoflurane to maintain the anaesthetised state. The vaporiser switching mechanism incorporates a ‘break before make’ safety feature to permit seamless and controlled changeover between both vaporisers, with no possibility of having both units in use in the circuit simultaneously.

The Glostavent^® Helix Duo is designed to function when power or oxygen fail in the operating theatre and is suitable for adults, paediatrics and neonates. The machine produces its own oxygen and medical air and has backup power, making it perfect for low resource environments. Used in more than 80 countries worldwide, all anaesthesia machines in the Glostavent® Helix range have built-in mechanical ventilators and numerous life-saving emergency backup systems. Designed and manufactured with precision in the UK, combining more than two decades of research and development, the Glostavent^® Helix Duo is CE certified, making it one of a kind.
