QED-100 Speeds Recovery from Anesthesia

Post by roster » Wed May 12, 2010 10:40 am

This is a simple but effective product for anyone recovering from anesthesia. It is especially helpful to apneics.
Sometimes the worst part of surgery is recovering from the anesthesia. That out-of-it feeling usually takes hours or even days to wear off. One team of doctors figured out a way to clear patients' heads of anesthesia within minutes, and it's helping them feel like themselves faster.

The QED-100TM is an inexpensive, easy-to-use, disposable device that quickly and actively removes unwanted inhaled anesthetics following surgery. The result is a reduction in the effects these residual agents have on these challenging patients.

"Patients are coming out of the OR chatting." This has never happened before.

I have a vision that we will figure out an easy way to ensure that children develop wide, deep, healthy and attractive jaws and then obstructive sleep apnea becomes an obscure bit of history.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ycw4uaX ... re=related
