ORTHOSTAR II : A Surgical Table Designed for Traumatology and Orthopedics
The Maquet ORTHOSTAR II is a surgical table specifically designed to meet the demands of orthopedic and traumatological interventions. Its electro-hydraulic system allows for precise adjustments in height, lateral tilt, and Trendelenburg/anti-Trendelenburg positions, offering great flexibility to surgeons. The table can be powered by battery or via a mains connection, ensuring prolonged autonomy and secure use even in the event of power interruptions.
Its modular tabletop is a major asset, allowing for patient preparation directly on the table before the intervention. The integration of a motorized three-part backrest facilitates optimal positioning for shoulder surgeries without the need to move the patient. This configuration is particularly advantageous for surgeries requiring easy access to the joint and precise stabilization of the operated limb.
The ORTHOSTAR II is also equipped with articulated traction bars located under the tabletop, enabling effective management of tibial and femoral fractures. The pivoting counter-traction system facilitates patient setup by reducing the time required to position fixation devices. The tabletop design ensures full access to the image intensifier, both in anteroposterior and lateral views, optimizing perioperative radiographic procedures.
The adaptability of this surgical table is enhanced by a wide range of specific accessories. For spinal interventions, dedicated components can be attached to the motorized backrest interface, providing optimal stability during spinal operations. The patient's inclination can be adjusted via an infrared remote control, allowing medical staff to remain outside the sterile field while maintaining precise control over table movements.
In terms of robustness, the ORTHOSTAR II's structure is made of CrNi stainless steel, offering excellent resistance to the demanding conditions of the operating room. Its T-shaped design with directional casters facilitates table movement and positioning, ensuring quick and secure setup. The thickness of the special foam cushions ensures optimal patient comfort while maintaining the radiolucency essential for perioperative imaging examinations.
The adjustment possibilities are extensive: the table height can be adjusted from 840 to 1205 mm, while the lateral tilt reaches 20°. The ORTHOSTAR II also allows for specific adjustments for spinal interventions, with ranges from 40° to 50° depending on surgical needs. Electronic controls ensure precision and smoothness in movements, making adjustments quick and efficient.
With its numerous configuration possibilities and modular system, the ORTHOSTAR II represents an ideal choice for operating rooms specializing in orthopedics and traumatology. It adapts to the needs of medical teams while providing an optimized, secure, and high-performance working environment.
