We have been successfully contributing to more safety in the operating theater for decades.
More safety in the operating theater – HARTMANN has been committed to this challenge right from the start. A large number of products from our operating theater range are used for the protection against infections essential to operating theater operation
An important step toward more safety in the operating theater was our development of the weavable X-ray detectable thread Telatrast with which all dressings and swabs for use in the operating room are equipped. Thus the radiographic medium enables reliable verification. Additional safety is provided by the prepackaging of Telatrast bandage materials in modules with checking stickers which make count checks and documentation easier for the operating theater staff.
We make an important contribution to the solution of the problem of the transmission of germs. We took up the challenge of effectively eliminating routes of infection with safe disposable products. The result is a complete range for complete asepsis: Disposable surgical gloves, disposable theater clothing as well as disposable drapes for the patient and the operating theater environment as well as for major and minor surgery. Standard sets for frequently occurring operations and an extensive range of supplementary products as well as individual sets for specific uses guarantee systematic and safe performance of work in the operating theater.
