Why Hydraulic or Electric Operating Tables Better than Manual?

Whether hydraulic, semi-electric, electro-hydraulic or electric operating table, today's surgeons prefer comfort at work during surgery. This is facilitated by automatic control of certain features. Automatic control can only be achieved if a control panel is included in an electrically supported device. Manual operating table does not have automatic control function, which may affect the attention of the surgeon during the operation. Hydraulic and electric products are in increasing demand in hospitals around the world as the field of medical technology advances and surgeons and patients place greater emphasis on comfort and safety.

Characteristics of hydraulic and electric operating tables vary with surgical specialization. For example, a general surgical table can be used for minor operations and can be adapted to other surgical procedures, including plastics, bladder, cardiovascular, gastroenterology, etc., with the support of accessories. Operating tables for specific operations can be distinguished by specific configurations. For orthopaedic surgery, a professional orthopaedic table with orthopaedic accessories is preferred. These devices, with traction racks, leg racks and more, effectively move the patient during surgery. Gynecological operating table should be easy to use the leg rest and more accessories for positioning or decubitus.

A power control source for operating various Settings (including table movement, height adjustment, table top tilting, etc.) helps simplify surgical tasks without distracting the surgeon. This function can be used for electric operating table. The movement of the table can be easily controlled with the help of a remote control that facilitates the function of the electric actuator. For example, the electric AOT302 OT table is suitable for all kinds of surgeries, including general surgery, vascular surgery, cardiology, neurology, urology, gynecology, proctology, laparoscopy, trauma surgery, plastic surgery, etc. The device comes with a remote control for easy height adjustment, lateral tilt, forward tilt, bending and reflex positioning, and much more motion and functionality. Rooemed makes more models of electric operating tables for different types of surgery.

Hydraulic power, usually controlled by pedals, contributes to the function of hydraulic operation table. The operation is slightly different from that of an electric operating table. For example, AOT3001A Hydraulic operation Table, designed for general surgery, has a built-in kidney bridge with detachable head and leg parts. Precision hydraulic machinery helps to achieve smooth tabletop movement for accurate patient positioning.

Sometimes, different operating modes involving hydraulic and electrical power are combined to get the best results. For example, a hydraulic feature can help adjust the head rest of an OT table with a hydraulic drive, and an electric feature can help adjust the table Settings with an electric drive.
