LEADING OPHTHALMIC SURGERY DEVICE TO LAUNCH MESI UK BRACED FOR AFRICAN VENTURE Network Medical is launching its leading ‘Endoglide Ultrathin’ surgical device. MESI UK is displaying its automated ankle-brachial pressure index measuring device (ABPI MD), a simple, but effective device to help diagnose peripheral arterial disease (PAD). NETWORK MEDICAL, STAND 2J35 The UK Company’s EndoGlide Ultrathin for endothelial surgery has become one of the leading systems in the world for introducing the Endothelium into the patient’s eye and was designed in conjunction with the Singapore National Eye Centre. The device gives doctors control of the delicate endothelium and reduces damage to the endothelial cells during eye surgery such as Endothelial Keratoplasty. Network Medical will also be showcasing its coronet trephines - super-sharp blades used for corneal transplants, ophthalmic PVA and their range of ENT products. MESI UK, STAND 2J36 PAD is caused by a build-up of fatty deposits in the arteries which restricts blood supply to leg muscles and can lead to heart attacks, strokes and limb amputations. MESI’s device can help diagnose PAD up to 5 years earlier. The ABPI MD measurement is repeatable and can be performed in only three minutes instead of the usual 30 minutes required using the traditional Doppler ultrasound method. MESI is looking to meet distributors in the region and provide physicians with a valuable tool to help diagnose Peripheral Arterial Disease. The company is hoping to meet prospective new distributors in the region and look forward to presenting our products to doctors and clinicians from the region. www.networkmedical.co.uk www.mesimedical.com Speak to Bijal Patel, International Business Development Manager LABORATORY AUTOCLAVE MANUFACTURER LOOKING TO AFRICA PRIORCLAVE, STAND 2J24 One of the UK’s leading manufacturers of laboratory autoclaves is here at Africa Health.
