Use Low-Flow Anesthesia Without Consequence

The Solution to All Problems with Granular Absorbents

SpiraLithCa® by Micropore utilizes revolutionary Solid Absorbent Technology™ to solve all the problems associated with granular absorbents used during the administration of anesthesia. SpiraLithCa® Absorbent incorporates the latest low-flow chemistry, less than 1% NaOH, with no reduction in duration to allow clinicians to take advantage of low-flow anesthesia and its benefits without consequence.

Traditional carbon dioxide absorbents degrade volatile anesthetics and produce toxic byproducts such as Compound A, Carbon Monoxide and Formaldehyde, preventing clinicians from utilizing true low-flow anesthesia. Although more recent absorbents have tried to address the issue by removing KOH and reducing NaOH concentrations to less than 2%, these changes negatively impact performance (dust and efficiency) and decrease canister duration. Micropore’s Solid Absorbent Technology™ solves all of these problems allowing clinicians to take advantage of the economic, environmental and safety benefits of low-flow anesthesia.
