In a factory in Solna just outside of the Swedish capital, Getinge’s Flow Family anesthesia machines are being designed and manufactured. The people in the assembly line are truly passionate about what they do, being one part of a long chain that eventually leads to saving lives.

For many people, the prospect of becoming anesthetized during an operation feels as uncomfortable as the surgical procedure itself. Then it is a good thing to remember that general anesthesia is very safe, and that Getinge’s machines are designed to provide excellent quality ventilation during anesthetic care.
