October 2002
United European Gastroenterology Week
Kea Dent had been planning to be in Geneva, but due to a very special
event that clashes with UEGW (see below), she cannot be there to
represent Dentsleeve directly. Our
products will however be well displayed and represented on the stands
of most manufacturers of manometric recording equipment.
Updated Information About Our Product Range
Just a reminder that earlier in 2002 we streamlined our web-site
and print materials so that it is now more simple for our clients
to identify products that meet their needs. These materials direct
clients first to our higher volume products used for clinical diagnosis.
These products have been given simplified descriptors.
We take pride in being able to offer our clients a very wide range
of options, and in tailoring catheters to special designs. Our web-site
and print materials are designed to lead clients through information
about more specialised products also, if necessary.
Thank You For Your Support - Dentsleeve
Is Growing!
There has been a substantial increase in the demand for our products
in the last year. We are working very hard at dealing effectively
with this welcome development by employing new staff and streamlining
our processes.
Shortly we will be installing a new information system that, amongst
other things, can keep closer track of manufacturing and inventory.
Our current premises continue to serve us well as they were designed
to allow for growth.
South Australian Business Woman of the Year - Kea Dent
Kea Dent entered, and was a finalist for both the South Australian
Young Business Woman of the Year, and the more senior award, South
Australian Business Woman of the Year, which was judged on September
20th. She won the senior award in recognition of her achievements
in building Dentsleeve! We take
great pride in her winning this, and of course, in her.
She travels to Brisbane to compete for the national award, Australian
Business Woman of the Year against the award holders from the other
six Australian states. The judging of this is around the time of
UEGW, hence her inability to be in Geneva.
Slip Tubes for Passage of Dentsleeve
Catheters Over Guidewire
The passage of catheters over guidewires is a rather specialised
application, but for those who are interested - please read on.
Friction between a guidewire and a large diameter guidewire channel
in our silicone rubber catheters can make it very difficult to pass
our catheters over a previously positioned guidewire. We now have
a solution to this, in the form of thin-walled Teflon slip tubes
that are passed into the guidewire channel.
For details, please download Dentsleeve
Technical Note 6 - "Guidewire Assisted Passage of Catheters"
from our web-site.
Christmas/Summer Holidays and Fishy Stories
Sorry - no new tall fishy stories but summer is coming, so who
knows what is coming up? One thing is certain though, Dentsleeve
will shut down between Christmas and New Year. Please put your orders
in early to avoid competition with Santa and the beach!
With best wishes.
Kea Dent
General Manager
