Stryker 1080 – Fluoroscopy stretcher: an optimised solution for medical imaging
The Stryker 1080 fluoroscopy stretcher has been designed to meet the medical imaging requirements of healthcare professionals, particularly in environments where efficiency, precision and safety are paramount. Thanks to its many features, it provides optimal imaging while ensuring patient comfort and stability throughout the procedure.
One of the major advantages of this table is its design, which focuses on patient accessibility and manoeuvrability. Its U-shaped base provides full clearance for the C-arm, facilitating fluoroscopy examinations without the need to reposition the patient several times. The full-length radiolucent table top enhances this efficiency, allowing X-rays to pass through smoothly for clear, continuous images.
Patient comfort is ensured by a 5 cm thick mattress and a double-ended pneumatic backrest, adjustable from 0 to 90 degrees. This design not only allows for precise positioning but also adapts to the specific needs of each procedure. In addition, the stretcher has a hydraulic height adjustment system controlled by pedals at each end, with a range of 23.5 to 32.75 inches, allowing nursing staff to easily adjust the working position.
In terms of safety, the 1080 model incorporates a robust four-wheel braking system with dual-end activation, ensuring that the stretcher is completely immobilised during care. The side rails, which are 139.5 cm long, fold down completely, providing easy side access to the patient while offering effective protection during transport or transfers.
This stretcher is also designed to adapt to different clinical environments, with a load capacity of up to 225 kg, four infusion holders and an integrated accessory rail for adding surgical or monitoring equipment. Additional options such as oxygen bottle holders, restraint straps and record holders further enhance its versatility.
The Stryker 1080 fluoroscopy stretcher is an essential tool for improving the efficiency of imaging procedures, optimising clinical workflow and enhancing patient safety and comfort. It is a wise choice for facilities looking for reliable, high-performance equipment that can be adapted to a variety of medical requirements.
