That’s the idea behind Sophi.
Sophi redefines the requirements of a perfect Phaco-System by focusing on the points of view of the surgeon, the surgical team and all other involved parties.
The result is a high-end device which sets new standards.
Sophi is a high-end Phaco system designed with mobility, simplicity and safety in mind.
Sophi is the first wireless Phaco system to offer high flexibility and mobility, providing ease of handling in the operating theatre and increased usibility.
Sophi’s design is simple and straightforward. The complexity is inside the device, which allows for simple user handling, time-saving and increased productivity.
Sophi opens up new avenues in hygiene and safety. The Clean Venturi and automated Cassette Slot-In-System reduce the risk of contamination, and the IOP Control Pump is designed for high chamber stability.
The combined benefits of Sophi’s three-pillar concept facilitate simpler, safer and faster operating procedures – in other words, Sophi significantly increases efficiency.
Set up, operate, and rearrange again and again with a device which can be moved easily and conveniently. Sophi is free of disturbing cables and tubes, a revolutionary step that gives you more flexibility and provides a crucial workflow improvement in the operating room.
The first battery-powered Phaco system
With Sophi, the entire device is powered by battery, providing mobility which simplifies processes and improves efficiency.
Integrated compressor
The compressors for vitrectomy and for Clean Venturi aspiration are also integrated into the device, meaning that there’s no need for the usual bulky and inflexible tube to the external compressor.
Freedom thanks to mobility
Sophi is incredibly adaptable. The 180° rotatable display and freedom to choose the tray position facilitates fast set-up in the operating theatre. Moving the device is very simple too: Release Mono-Brake Handle, move Sophi to the desired location, apply the brake – done.
Ready for the future
These days a wireless connection of the foot pedal over Bluetooth is standard. However, Sophi can do much more! Sophi enables you to transmit live microscope images to the display over Wi-Fi.
Sophi is not just an advancement of existing technology, but also a complete innovation.
Complexity, simply designed.
The surgical team should be able to focus entirely on the patient – and Sophi enables you to do just that. With modern assistance systems and clever control elements, Sophi creates a simple surgery process. Sophi can be parametrised intuitively, assists you with intelligent sensor technology, and automatically adjusts parameters in critical situations.
Despite Sophi’s slim and clean design, it provides everything needed for both ergonomic and safe usage in one place. Clear shapes, high-quality materials and numerous innovative solutions make Sophi a system which sets new benchmarks.
Sophi communicates with you, not only on the display, but also verbally with Text2Speech, and visually with color-changing LED projection. All surgical team members receive exactly the information needed to execute their tasks in a focused and efficient manner.
Sophi is easy, clear and quick to operate. Start-up of the system is very fast, and thanks to the Multi-Surgeons Settings, can be configured according to your wishes and needs.
The surgical team should be able to focus entirely on the surgery.
The most efficient way to make a system safe is to eliminate uncertainty – and this is exactly what Sophi was designed to do. Sophi has an integrated safety system that complies with the highest standards with regard to process stability, precision and hygiene.
The centre piece of every Phaco device is the pumping system for stable chamber fluidics, or for Sophi more specifically, the pumping systems – Sophi has three combined into one: 1. IOP Control Pump, 2. Peristaltic Pump, 3. Clean Venturi Pump.
The less energy a Phaco handpiece needs, the less heat is projected into the eye. That is why Sophi controls the handpiece with a sinusoidal signal, which considerably reduces the energy needed, thereby protecting the eye.
Each detail of Sophi focuses on safety – without compromise. Sophi offers an automatic Cassette Slot-In System which reduces the risk of contact between sterile and unsterile areas during loading.
The most efficient way to make a system safe is to eliminate uncertainty systematically.
