Verathon Medical Canada new product development and manufacturing facility has made enhancements to GlideScope Video Laryngoscopes (GVL), and Cobalt AVL and Cobalt video baton laryngoscopes to better withstand more rigorous vaporized hydrogen peroxide disinfection and sterilization systems.
In addition Verathon notifies the health care facilities that currently own GlideScope video laryngoscopes have an upgrade opportunity to accommodate vaporized hydrogen peroxide compatible units.
With the 2006 acquisition of Saturn Biomedical Systems in Vancouver, Canada, Verathon entered Anesthesiology, Critical Care and Emergency markets with the GlideScope video laryngoscope brand.
Headquartered in Bothell, Washington, Verathon operates as a subsidiary of Roper Industries, which designs and manufactures medical devices and services that offer a meaningful improvement in patient care to the health care community.
