RADIUS 1557.00AJ – The Examination Chair That Combines Performance, Design, and Comfort
Designed to meet the needs of modern clinical practices, the RADIUS 1557.00AJ by Maquet is much more than just a simple examination chair. Suitable for gynecology, urology, or general consultations, it embodies the perfect synergy between medical ergonomics, precise engineering, and patient comfort. Its sleek, compact design fits seamlessly into any clinical setting, promoting a reassuring atmosphere. But it’s in daily use that this chair truly stands out.
Thanks to its electric motorization, the transition from a seated to a fully reclined position is smooth and effortless, allowing the practitioner to maintain optimal posture throughout the examination without interruption or physical strain. Its defining feature is the coordinated tilt system: when the backrest is adjusted, the seat follows automatically, ensuring a seamless movement for the patient and enhancing practitioner ergonomics. The backrest can tilt up to 57°, while the seat adjusts up to 25°, offering a wide range of positions.
Thoughtfully designed for real clinical workflows, the chair includes practical features like a compartment for a 38 cm wide paper roll, with a cutout in the backrest to facilitate paper placement. A pull-out stainless steel waste bowl (Ø 21 cm) ensures hygienic waste disposal without disrupting the consultation.
The leg rest adds another layer of flexibility, with vertical adjustment and 45° horizontal rotation to suit specific procedures or patient preferences. Completing the user-friendly experience is a built-in patient step, making access easier even for those with reduced mobility.
Built for strength and reliability, the chair supports up to 180 kg and remains stable in all positions. Fully extended, it reaches a length of 175 cm, ensuring total comfort in a reclined position. Its compact footprint—155 x 76 cm with a height adjustable between 138 and 168 cm—makes it ideal for clinics with limited space.
Maquet, a benchmark brand in the hospital sector, brings its expertise to this model to deliver a device that’s functional, safe, and intuitive—fully aligned with the high standards of demanding medical environments. The RADIUS 1557.00AJ isn’t just an examination chair; it’s a strategic clinical tool, designed to enhance patient well-being and streamline care delivery.
