Oertli Launches Updated OS 4 Surgical Platform

Oertli Instrumente announced the release of an updated OS 4 surgical platform for retinal, glaucoma and cataract surgery.

Occlusion Mode: Phaco power at the right time

The OS 4 offers three phaco modulations as standard. An additional Occlusion Mode can now be activated for the peristaltic pump system. In Occlusion Mode, phaco power is delivered only when the preset vacuum limit is reached, which means that ultrasound is generated when needed.

Quickly set infusion values

The OS 4 offers two options for infusion systems: active gas-forced infusion and passive gravity infusion. The settings for the infusion values can now be changed faster with the foot pedal using five-unit increments (mmHg or cm).

Temporarily deactivate irrigation

In retinal surgery, irrigation can be deactivated for a defined period (Irrigation Off), such as when the surgeon would like to lower the IOP to examine the peripheral retina.

Personal laser settings accessible at all times

The OS 4 device contains an integrated 532 nm endolaser that can be controlled either using the touchscreen or directly with the dual-linear foot pedal. Each surgeon can now save their personal laser values (Laser Power, Laser Duration and Pulse). Individual values can be programmed for up to 50 surgeons and can be readily accessed at any time.

OS 4 – the platform for all cases

The heart of the OS 4 platform is the 3-pump system with vacuum and flow control along with an innovative SPEEP pump that simultaneously controls flow and vacuum. Other highlights are the two Power LED light sources for optimal visualisation right to the periphery and free choice of colours for high-resolution contrast viewing.
