Whether hydraulic, semi-electric, electro-hydraulic or electric operating tables, what surgeons today prefer the most is working comfort during a surgical procedure. This is facilitated with automatic control of certain features. Automatic control can happen only with the inclusion of a control panel in the equipment that runs with electricity support. Manual varieties do not have auto-control features, which may affect the focus of a surgeon during a surgical procedure. With advancement in the medical technology sector and with both surgeons and patients prioritizing more on the comfortability and safety factor, hydraulic and electric varieties have seen a rise in demand in hospitals across the world.
Features of hydraulic and electric operating tables differ depending on the specialization of the surgical procedure. For example, general surgery tables can be used for minor surgeries and can be adapted with support of accessories for other surgical procedures including plastic, bladder, cardiovascular, gastroenterological, etc. Operating tables used for specialized procedures can be differentiated by a specific configuration. For orthopedic surgeries, specialized ortho tables with ortho attachments are preferred. These equipment comes with traction frames, leg holders, and more features for efficient movement of the patient during a surgical performance. Operating tables for gynecology should facilitate siting or lying position with leg holders and more accessories. Few manufacturers have come up with tables that can be used for all types of surgeries.
A source of power control to operate the various settings including movement of the table, adjustment of height, inclination of the table top, etc. helps simplify surgical tasks with no distractions for the surgeon. This feature is available in electric operating tables. With the help of a remote control that helps the functioning of an electric actuator, the movements of the table can be easily controlled. For example, the KME-1204 sliding top electric OT table from Koinaa Medical Equipments is suitable for all kinds of surgeries including general surgery, vascular surgery, cardio, neurology, urology, gynecology, proctology, laparoscopy, traumatic surgery, plastic surgery, etc. This equipment comes with a remote control that facilitates adjustment of height, lateral tilting, longitudinal sliding, trendelenburg, flex and reflex positioning, and more movements and functions. The non-reflecting surface is antibacterial and easy to clean. Koinaa Medical Equipments manufactures several more models of electric operating tables for different surgical procedures.
A hydraulic source of energy, generally controlled by a pedal, facilitates the functioning of hydraulic OT tables. The operating mode is slightly different from electric operating tables. For example, the KME-1203 hydraulic surgical table designed for general surgeries, comes with a translucent five sectional radio. It has an in-built kidney bridge with manual floor locking system and detachable head, leg, and pelvic section. Sophisticated hydraulic mechanics facilitate smooth, step less articulation of the table top for precise patient positioning.
Sometimes, different operating modes involving hydraulic and electric energies are combined for the best outcome. For example, the hydraulic feature may help adjust the headrest of of an OT table via a hydraulic actuator and electric feature may help adjust the settings of the table top via an electric actuator.
