MAQUET has released a new operating table designed to be used for a wide range of invasive procedures. Everything from gynecology, urology, and nephrectomies to orthopedic and spinal surgeries can be performed on the ALPHASTAR PRO thanks to motorized adjustments and radiologically translucent components.
An extensive range of accessories mean that it can be used for orthopaedic, traumatology and neurosurgical interventions as well as for cardiac procedures. The accessories are connected using the simple to operate "Easy-Click" system. This allows the rapid deployment of a broad range of socket-mounted modules. In this way, the Alphastar Pro can be modified safely and conveniently to suit a wide spectrum of surgical tasks and patient sizes.
A new, multi-sectioned table top is used to ensure the anatomically correct positioning of patients in all areas of application. It can be individually adjusted for the corresponding surgical intervention. 360° radiotranslucent carbon fibre modules enable intraoperative monitoring with imaging processing. Additionally, a seat plate extension can be connected to give optimal radioscopy of the urogenital area.
As well as offering exceptional stability, the motor-powered leg plates deliver a significant improvement, particularly with gynaecological and urological operations. The same is true for the access to the OR table which is possible without knocking against the table base. The flexible height adjustment, from 598 mm to 1120 mm, allows the surgeon to work in an ergonomic position during operations, whether seated or standing.
The OR table is controlled using an IR or cable-corded hand control and guarantees safe operation, even at
critical phases of the surgical procedure. Safe handling is also possible thanks to the illuminated keypad, even in darkened operating theatres, for example, during minimally invasive interventions.
