Best Operating Room Consumables

Cordless Floor Mat (No Alarm in Patient's Room)
Floor mat sends a wireless to the alarm monitor which can be up to 150’ – 300’ feet away. But to reduce the amount of batteries you will use for your alarm, you might wish to purchase an AC adapter for this alarm unit.
Reviews
"I love that it's wireless so I can actually have the alarm monitor in any room of the house and if my dad tries to get out of bed, the alarm will go off. As stated in other reviews, there is a 5 second delay from the time feet hit the mat till the time the alarm actually goes off. Fortunately for me, I haven't actually had any incidents regarding my dad yet. You know, even with the delay, I will take this mat any day over having nothing!"
"I love this product."
"The alarm goes off on a transceiver with a caregiver, so it does not startle the person who stepped on the mat."
"Second, there is no easy way to replace the battery."
"Works really well alerting me when my mom (who has dementia) gets up at night."
"This has saved my mom from falling many times because I can get to her quickly when she gets up in the middle of the night!"
"Suggested purchasing the AC Adapter so you don't have to worry about the batteries running out at night."
"As soon as her feet hit the floor, it sets off an alarm in the caregiver's room instead of in her room."

"Let's face it, there's little chance that I'll get cut so badly and also be so far away from health care for so long that I'd need to stitch myself or others up BUT being prepared for such a scenario is never a terrible idea-unless you don't know what you're doing when it comes to suturing wounds."

Tensive Parker Labs Conductive Adhesive Gel, 50 Gram
Recommended for TENS, EMG, EEG and other electromedical procedures. Eliminates tape and tape irritation.
Reviews
"When I am finished using the pads, I apply a small amount of the gel to the pads backing sheet and spread it out with the pad itself. In between needing to reapply the gel, after each session with the pads I simply put a few drops of water on the electrode pad backing sheet, then set the pads in place and put them in the ziplock bag."
"It will leave a ton of sticky residue on your skin when you take off the electrode. Then after a couple of days it will be set and won't leave much of a residue on your skin when you remove the electrode. I highly recommend it to those who want to continue to use an electrode(s) that otherwise works fine except it lost it's stickiness."
"I would suggest ordering a package of extra electrodes since the ones supplied will need replacing after several uses...besides..they're inexpensive !"
"Great adhesive that really works on more than one application....I apply to a non-sticky electrode & I take it off, the glue on my body is minor & washes right off but the next time I go to use the electrode, it is still sticky from the previous application."
"Take them old pads and put a dab (tiny amount) and it will stick like or better than new."
"I bought this to help adhere the tens pad to my knees, and give it the tackiness that it needed."
"Gets the pads very sticky."
"I do not find that this gel makes any difference whatsoever in the adherence of the electro pads."

Reviews
"They open and close, and when you need to cut something well just close them and the act like shears and cut. Half the time I don't even unclip them to open them."
"The shears are comfortable to hold, stay closed when not in use, and easily cut surgical dressings, paper, cardboard, plastic, and virtually anything else I’ve tried them on."
"After I bought this pair my co-worker pulled out his new pair that is heavier duty and is like a leather man tool."
"I don't like lugging around equipment too big in my pockets, so I knew I could make it work with the carabiner. Although they are on the larger size, I can slip them into my pocket and let the carabiner clip on the edge. Still sharp, clip is holding up perfectly, and thanks to the clip, they never disappear too far from my pocket."
"The carabiner clip has a smooth open/close action, and it doesn't feel like the pin securing it will get gummed up over time preventing it from opening and closing easily."
"They are a little uncomfortable to use, in my opinion and feel kind of cheap BUT for a five-ten minute dressing change or simply cutting a piece of clothing, they are worth the buy."
"While taking my husband to doctor for dressing changes, they used these shears."
"Hope he enjoys the hot pink shears with black hearts drawn all over lol."

"I dont know what to do with all the extra time I save now that I poop faster."
"You may think I'm just some made up spam account, but I honestly have bought multiple squatty potties."
"Then it went from bad to worse... adding blood and could no longer pass my rainbow snow cones of Fallout 4 style waste. Usually in a 3 week interval I'd get very sick and spend 3-4 hours in about 9-10 trips of liquid dookie stew and could barely function for the next 48 hours. In fact I think I'm starting to feel better and my cramps are no longer happening.

Reviews
"As I lay on the toy strewn floor quivering in battery operated pain one brave child who is forever striving to be my favorite grabbed the evil devil box and in the brave attempt to turn it off, instead turned up the frequency of the attack. The injured and now fear filled mom is a quivering mass of pain and the children are now gleefully trying out the Devils toy on random body parts. I am giving this evil box a five star rating as the original pinched nerve pain is now completely gone."
"However, the instruction booklet is NOT helpful at all, so there are several functions he still doesn’t know how to utilize."
"It used to be that I couldn't bend well at all, could only stand for an hour at most even with taking Aleve and my prescribed muscle relaxer (and in retail that suuucks), and was always in real pain by the end of the day, no matter what, but since using the tens therapy about once every other day, and sometimes more when I'm actively very sore, I've notice significantly less steady pain, I'm more limber, spasms have become few and far between, and there have been days when I've been able to work short shifts (>5hrs) medication free! All in all I would recommend this to anybody curious, who struggles with ongoing muscle pain and weakness or spasms, and will be reordering pads soon (I find I get about a week or so of good uses out of each)."
"No problem - with this TENS unit, I can place the electrodes on the different spots and get relief all at once. I would definitely recommend this unit."
"I immediately bought one for myself and gave it to my Mom for a recent knee injury."
"I bought this for my husband's back pain."
"Good control over intensity level from very low to very high."
"You can see the muscles moving and contracting on all but the lowest settings, and it really feels like someone is kneading your muscles on the knead setting, I was so surprised!"

Reviews
"If you only see adult patients, you can convert the pediatric side to an open bell. Thus, I usually have the adult diaphragm on 1 side, and the bell on the other side. USUALLY, I can hear just fine using the adult side on babies, however there have been times where it was difficult to make a tight seal, and I was able to convert the bell to a pediatric diaphragm which helped greatly."
"Very happy with my purchase!"
"My first semesters I had the SE Classic II and it was wonderful. Not only can I hear great lung and heart sounds on adults, but also on peds, CHF patients, and others."
"Lately I’ve noticed the trend of many medical students and nurses with cardiology stethoscopes in the hospital setting, so I just want to set the record straight. I wonder how many of those people understand that cardiology stethoscopes are for advanced medical specialist that truly may need a little more acoustics, and have the proper training and technique to really use and understand what the medical tool is providing. This classic 3 has more than enough acoustics for most nurses and specialist in the medical field. Let me assure you that a well trained professional with good technique and training will do a lot better in terms of diagnosis with a Classic 3 than a person that just relies on having an expensive stethoscope (in other words a professional poser)."
"I bought this item as a Christmas gift and didn't open it until today to wrap it for my EMT son."
"When we searched for the one in the box it looks to be about a $10 stethoscope in the box of the $86 littman I ordered."

If so, the Medical Overbid Table is the perfect solution. INFINITE TABLE POSITIONS: Light upward touch on spring-loaded locking handle allows the over bed table to be raised or lowered to any height between 28"- 40".
Reviews
"The lever mechanism to raise or lower is very nice and works very well. It took less than 5 minutes to put together, 6 screws and 2 bolts with one screw you remove and replace with a shorter screw. The directions have an assembly diagram showing you putting in the 6 screws and 2 bolts, just like any other directions kind of showing you how it all fits together before starting with the directions. HOWEVER in this case because it is so simple the diagram is your instructions, then when it says STEP ONE, you really are on step 3, you must put the thing together by the diagram (6 screws and 2 bolts with a washer for the 2 bolts) BEFORE you go to step one, which is removing the retaining screw and then inserting a short screw so that the stand can raise and lower."
"So you might look at this table and think that it's a hospital table and yes, that is where you probably have seen a table like this. First a little about the table. One thing that makes this table different than other lapdesk type tables is that it is very narrow. The table has four wheels that all lock so that the table is secured and won't roll. I have not found the table to lean or tilt even when everything is sitting on the end of the table."
"The directions are easy to follow and assembly took around 30 minutes but I was being very careful. High quality materials with a lip around the edge that will protect from spills. I really love it and happy that all my artwork can stay safe from my dog jumping on top of my projects and damage from spills."

"I was taking a mirror off the back of a door 4 nights ago....crash! My wife was running around the basement looking for this bandage all the while the blood was pooling under my death grip I had on my ankle. When I got to the hospital and they unwrapped that bandage I thought it was going to gush blood. everywhere, nope."
"I was cutting hedges with gas powered hedge-trimmers and my best friend stuck her hand in from the other side in an attempt to pick up the clippings. Fortunately, my first aid kit, which always contains several Israeli Battle Bandages was just a few paces away in my vehicle. The finger was still attached by just a small bit of skin and what (we later found out) was a blood vessel. After I bandaged her finger in place, we began the journey to seek professional medical assistance."
"This bandage is used by the US Military, Israeli Armed Forces, and many Emergency Medical Technicians. It's versatile as well, you can apply this bandage to others and yourself as well thanks to the loop and brackets."
"I am an EMT student, and the teacher recommended we add this to our first aid bag as a must have."
"After a match was finished an individual cut themselves pretty bad on a jagged piece of metal on the tear down (end up requiring 12 stitches) and I was able to use this to apply immediate pressure on the wound and stop the bleeding and get them to a hospital and I've had only basic training in applying this product."
"I keep one of these in my range bag home first aid kit and car first aid kit this is the bandage for when you need it has superior hardware than what comes in kits and can be used on yourself with only one hand."

"I bought some conductivity gel just in case it loses contact after the pads are getting old but I don't see that I will ever use it now. It also is very easy to buy cheap sets of replacement pads for this unit. The pain that I live with on a constant level is moderate to severe and I refuse to take opiates on a regular basis. I get so much relief that hours later I'm still pleased that my pain level is low to moderate. When I use this on my neck or lower back and I walk or stretch very slightly... my spine will pop which means that trapped bursa is released and relief floods through my whole body and I get relaxation that I never can get without the unit. I was struggling to no avail to "pop" my back and neck to get relief from the pressure pain. I bought this unit on the advice of my orthopedic surgeon that did my shoulder surgery. Pay it forward and honestly review your purchases on Amazon please!"
"I'm a Paramedic and had a 400lbs patient fall on me 3 year ago, blowing out 2 disks in my lower back, and I've been a mess ever since. There is also something like 15 different modes depending on what body part you place it on, or what rhythm you want, which is excellent for getting the right feel for you and switching it up on each use."
"I love electrocuting myself, my wife, a volunteering child that wonders "What does it feel like?" Be careful though, we turned the 10 year into a zombie for 6 hours using the acupuncture mode.

Best Respiratory & Anesthesia Equipment

SoClean 2 + ResMed S9 Adapter (SoClean 2 CPAP Cleaner and Sanitizer Bundle with Free Adapter)
Activated oxygen. SoClean uses the same safe and proven sanitizing and disinfecting process found in water purification, produce handling, hotel housekeeping and hospital sanitizing. EASY TO USE: Sanitizes all CPAP equipment, including water in the reservoir, without removing the mask, hose or reservoir.
Reviews
"I am very pleased with my SoClean 2 CPAP Cleaner/Sanitizer. The SoClean does a great job at sanitizing my CPAP tank, hose and mask/cushion/headgear, but it does NOT clean off the perspiration and skin oils that accumulate on the cushion/mask/headgear. To see what I've learned about using the SoClean2 with my CPAP equipment please read on... WHAT IS THIS SOCLEAN 2 THING? If don't know what the SoClean 2 does, here it is: It's an ozone generator and circulator. The SoClean keeps the Ozone in a closed loop and when the treatment is over uses a filter to convert ozone back to regular oxygen over a couple of hours. The SoClean 2 works by feeding ozone through an adapter that goes between your CPAP machine and hose. If you have a humidifier tank there is a hose that snakes into the tank to bubble ozone through the water (keeping it bacteria free) and then it passes through the hose and back out the mask which is inside the SoClean where the hose enters via a rubber sealed opening. A NOTE ON OZONE: According to the SoClean web site "The ozone concentration is up to 25PPM (parts per million)" when cleaning That's inside the SoClean and is circulated through the CPAP equipment. When the cleaning cycle is finished the SoClean takes 2 hours to for the filter to reduce and neutralize the Ozone to safe levels. The SoClean does NOT really "CLEAN" your equipment. The included instruction booklet (downloadable from the SoClean web site) is quite good and covers how to setup the SoClean with your CPAP machine. A nice feature if the SoClean 2 is automatic cleaning. The SoClean clock lost track of time and before I noticed I thought my SoClean was broken! The automatic cleaning schedule wasn't lost with the power, but with the clock set about 8 hours early so my mask wasn't getting cleaned when I expected. LESSON: Remember to reset the SoClean clock after a power failure to assure to your automatic cleaning cycle happens as expected. One less thing to keep on my shelf... :-). While not directly a SoClean consumable it's worth noting my mask and hoses seem to last a lot longer saving me noticeable money ( I pay full price until my insurance deductible is met). I'm very pleased with the SoClean 2 and it has noticeably and significantly improved my CPAP experience since I got it."
"Second, I HATE cleaning the mask and hoses from the CPAP, it's impossible to get to all the little grooves and ridges in them and no matter how hard you try... after several weeks they start getting that "musty" smell. wake up, pull the mask off your face, dump it into the top of the unit and close the lid (there's a notch in the side for the hose to stay connected to the CPAP itself). I had one REALLY minor issue with the adapter and contacted support via e-mail and they were back to me within a few hours and had a solution immediately. I will add a couple of things though: The SoClean does leave an odor in the hose/mask, but it's one of Ozone, not mildew, a definite improvement and one that is immediately removed by just turning on the CPAP for a few seconds before I put it on my face and let the air blow through it."
"It does have a slight ozone smell for a few seconds, but disperses quickly."
"My mask turned a brown ting after a week of use, i swapped masks and again it turns the mask brown."

Reviews
"My gold standard is rectal temps since that's what my pedi wants when I call with issues and I haven't found any themometers that come close to giving me an accurate temp when compared with a rectal temp. The armpit ones take far too long and I have returned three other ear themometers for not being even close to his rectal temps. I can say that this themometer, so far (had it a week now and both kids are battling viruses) is always within .2 of their rectal temps."
"Great product, I never have to guess that perhaps I or my husband has a fever."
"I replaced a Braun 6022 with the Kinsa."
"The only thing I would change about this is the design, it's a little bulky compared to other thermometers but then again, other thermometers aren't as cool and high tech as this one."
"Pairing the thermometer to the app was easy and I love how you can create a profile for everyone in your family."
"Super easy to connect and I love that you can make profiles for different people when taking temperatures to monitor it."
"Gone are the days of running after my daughter who refuses to let me get an underarm measurement or swipe across her forehead."
"I've shown my sister the app and she was amazed at the feedback and guidance that the app was providing, as well as the separate profiles, which will be useful for her to use for her 2 kids."
