In pediatric anesthesia, small adjustments in mechanical ventilation may lead to large physiological changes. The accuracy of measured values becomes critically important as the size of the patient decreases, and the severity of illness increases. With the Getinge Flow Family of anesthesia machines, you get innovative tools designed to fine tune and personalize anesthesia delivery to manage even the most challenging patient cases. 

With a firm belief that every person and community should have access to the best possible care, Getinge provides hospitals and life science institutions with products and solutions aiming to improve clinical results and optimize workflows. The offering includes products and solutions for intensive care, cardiovascular procedures, operating rooms, sterile reprocessing and life science. Getinge employs over 10,000 people worldwide and the products are sold in more than 135 countries.

Also, available for download in our booth are case studies around the features and benefits of the Flow Family.
