ALPHASTAR: A Versatile and High-Performance Operating Table
The ALPHASTAR operating table by Maquet is a benchmark in flexibility and performance for operating rooms. Designed to meet the needs of surgeons and medical staff, it allows for quick adaptation to a wide range of procedures thanks to its electrohydraulic system and modular design.
The ALPHASTAR stands out with its ability to support a patient weight of up to 450 kg (ALPHASTAR PLUS model), ensuring optimal stability even during complex interventions. Its height can be adjusted between 598 mm and 1125 mm (depending on the version), providing ergonomic adaptability for surgeons operating either standing or seated. This flexibility is enhanced by precise movements, controlled via a wired remote or infrared control, allowing real-time adjustments without interrupting the procedure.
Its modular design ensures compatibility with numerous accessories, offering great freedom in patient positioning. The tabletop is divided into several sections (head, back, seat, and legs), all independently adjustable to optimize comfort and safety. The reverse mode option allows for the inversion of the patient's head-to-foot position, adding even more adjustment possibilities.
For specialties requiring specific positioning, such as gynecology, neurosurgery, or orthopedics, the ALPHASTAR offers tailored solutions. For example, its carbon fiber tabletop facilitates intraoperative imaging with unobstructed access for the image intensifier. Leg extensions and specific supports help stabilize the patient during complex procedures without hindering the surgeon's work.
In terms of mobility, the ALPHASTAR is equipped with hydraulic swivel casters, making it easy to move around the operating room. It also features a secure braking system, ensuring perfect stability once in position. Its rechargeable battery operation provides extended autonomy, reducing dependence on electrical outlets and improving efficiency in the operating room.
The table's surface is made of stainless steel and composite materials resistant to disinfectants, ensuring impeccable hygiene and increased longevity. The intuitive user interface simplifies adjustments and reduces setup time before procedures.
With all these features, the ALPHASTAR stands out as a reliable and efficient solution, capable of adapting to various surgical contexts while improving patient comfort and ease of work for medical teams.
