KOWON SAFETY SYSTEM
Safety System
No surgical result matters until the patient's safety is assured. We keep the equipment that monitors your condition and the systems that handle emergencies — and we run them by the book.

A look inside our cleaning routine

Equipment for safety
-
Chemical sterilisation of instruments
Every instrument used in surgery and procedures goes through a chemical sterilisation process.
-
High-pressure steam sterilisation
A high-temperature, high-pressure autoclave sterilises instruments through to the inside, lowering infection risk.
-
EO gas sterilisation
Precision instruments that cannot take heat are handled separately with ethylene oxide gas sterilisation.
-
Intra-operative monitoring
From the first incision through recovery, ECG, oxygen saturation and other vitals are tracked in real time.
-
Backup power system (UPS)
An uninterruptible power supply and backup generator mean surgery does not stop, even in a power failure.
-
AED & oxygen support
A defibrillator and oxygen support are kept on hand at all times for an immediate emergency response.
Protocol matters more than equipment
-
Two operations a day, no more
The next case begins only after we have confirmed the previous patient has fully recovered. We do not plan punishing schedules — we keep to the set one so that no patient is short-changed.
-
CCTV in the operating room
The procedure is recorded openly. We believe an environment patients and their families can trust is where safety begins.
-
Dedicated staff monitoring
From the start of surgery until full recovery, dedicated staff check the patient's condition with redundant layers of monitoring, in a system where even a small error is unacceptable.
-
Regular emergency drills
For the emergencies that can still occur, we run regular training so that every member of staff stays prepared.
