The purpose of any animal monitoring cage is to provide optimal care in hopes of aiding and speeding up recovery time for animal patients. 

Kanistar ICU line does just that. At the machines most basic functions, it creates an environment of stable temperature and humidity, helping to provide 

a comfortable environment for the animal. These basic functions are great for newborn dogs and cats, especially born by caesarean section, as they cannot 

regulate their own body temperature and are confronted by a high mortality rate caused by hypothermia. A warm and comfortably controlled environment helps 

to increase their survival rate.With advanced diagnosis, monitoring and treatment equipment and technology, our ICU helps to observe the qualitative and 

quantitative condition of your patient continuously and dynamically. The typical animal ICU machine on the market fails to close the gap between what we know 

human ICUs can do. In our redefining of the animal ICU, we hope to close the gap from being a simple enclosed space that provides temperature and humidity settings and offering a machine that can support multiple medical treatments, such as infusions and nebulization of medication, an oxygen therapy enclosure, 

the ability to purify the ambient air inside the containment, and more. Enjoy the animal ICU, redefined, in Kanistar’s TSAAS intensive care units.

1.Accurate temperature control

The TSAAS ICU heating system is equipped with an overhead double duct circulating heating system and a thermostatic bed system to ensure uniformed temperature in the cabin;

Relying on the semi-conduction system in thermostatic bed, TSAAS ICU can provide quick cooling at the bottom, where the patient can have their full abdomen in contact with the floor to help cool the body.

Other ICU models help cool animal patients by using compressor refrigeration. While this method does cool down the chamber, it comes at a negative cost to the care of your animal patient. Compressor refrigeration blows air into the compartment, which can cause unwanted cross contamination. It also creates a direct cold air stream that blows on the animal, creating an overall uncomfortable situation for a patient trying to heal. Additionally, most compressor refrigeration coolers are very noisy, making it difficult to maintain a peaceful environment for skittish or post-op patients. In the Kanistar TSAAS ICUs, we use a thermostatic bed refrigeration, replacing cold air refrigeration with “cold compress refrigeration”. With this method, the floor of the unit will help cool the animal without disturbing the warm ambient atmosphere, allowing you to help your patient get to a comfortable body temperature without putting them in harm’s way.

To effectively care for an animal patient, a method to cool the ICU is needed. 

However, because most animal facilities are in airconditioned spaces, a compressor refrigeration unit is not needed. Rather, a comfortable thermostatic bed for a quick cooling of a pet patient’s body in cases of high fever, heat stroke or hyperthermia is more effective and efficient in caring for animals. An optional add-on compressor refrigerator is available, which may be needed when the facility is not well air-conditioned.

Heating System: Unlike most ICUs on the market with a singular heating fan on the ceiling, our heating system has both a left and right duct that create a cross circulation. With a dual heating duct system, our ICU can ensure an even temperature distribution in the enclosure where a single duct can only unilaterally heat. In addition to the cross circulation, the thermostatic bed can also provide a source of heat at the floor of the enclosure. No matter where the animal is resting, a consistency in temperature can be maintained.

2. Relative Humidity Controls

Whether heating or cooling the enclosure, our ICU can maintain adequate relative humidity levels for your pet patients. Generally, a comfortable range for most animal patients is 45%-55% relative humidity. With our ICU machine you can achieve high temperatures with low humidity to help meet the requirements needed for some treatments. You can also achieve an environment with high temperature and high humidity in cases where 65%-75% relative humidity is needed.

3. Oxygen Containment

For proper oxygen treatments, an ICU must provide an airtight compartment, precise oxygen control, and a safe ventilation system. Our TSAAS units do just that to help you achieve a desired level greater than or equal to 40% oxygen concentration. The airtight cabin can easily reach 60% oxygen concentration within one hour at a flow rate of  10L/min (93%+). The emergency vent automatically opens when the oxygen concentration is lower that 18% or there is a power outage.

4.Our TSAAS ICUs can monitor the changes of animal body temperature 7 days a week, 24 hours a day. The monitor can alarm according to the changes of animal body temperature or automatically adjust the ICU according to the preset temperature. This function takes our unit from your basic incubator setup to an intelligent automatic inductive medical device(available on Pro model).

5. TSAAS ICUs can remotely monitor the overall status of the machine, monitor the temperature of the patient, and remotely control all the function of the machine. All vet, technicians and nurses can efficiently and effectively monitor all ICUs with a mobile phone or tablet for timely and accurate responses to the pet’s needs.

6.Triple purification function

Each TSAAS unit has a triple purification system. The first is an easy-to-use ultraviolet disinfection light. This light uses ultraviolet rays with a wavelength of 200nm to 280nm. Ultraviolet rays at this frequency have been proven to eradicate bacteria and effectively kill microbial cells. Second, each unit is equipped with negative ion purification. High-concentration negative ion generators in a closed treatment chamber can significantly reduce odor pollution and help support the immune system of your pet patients. As a third measure of purification, we have equipped the machine an external cycle fresh air system. When oxygen supply is not required in treatment, the “external cycle” function can be turned on to help refresh and improve the cabin air quality.
