New procedure table

Hey guys, the hospital has been building an entirely new procedure suite for myself and some other specialties. We are also getting a new procedure table and they just informed me that they have to have the bid in by Friday. I know nothing about good procedure tables. Any recs?? All I know is that my current one sucks as the sides are not completely translucent. Every time I get an oblique, I have to over or under oblique past the side of the table. Definitely don't want to deal with this with our future purchase. Thanks for the help

I’ve been using a Stille Medstone—it’s been solid.

Oakworks has great tables.

Bro wtf is wrong with your hospital? Oakworks for the win.

If it’s a hospital then demand they try out a unit prior to purchase. So you can confirm it will work for you. You also want to check weight limits. Oakworks are good. I have surgical table, STI gas worked great for years and lifts the biggies no problem

ive only used oakworks and they work great.

I’m suggesting this one I think. We’ll see if I can try it before we buy it

Oakworks CFPM400 Pain Management C-Arm Imaging Table with Rectangular Top, 4 Motion, 110V

Oakworks CFPM400 Imaging/Pain Management Table is designed for image-guided procedures where stability, access, and precise, quiet positioning are essential.

I have a similar table without longitudinal travel. It is good to have that feature at hospitals and ASC’s since people mess with the bed and c arm routinely. There isn’t really anything possible not to like about the table. $16000 is nothing for a hospital. Just buy it.

Anyone have a good suggestion for a less expensive office base option. Just need up/down and lift 500. Mine just got finicky after 14 year run

I think this is the same table I have. Will try to confirm tomorrow. Make sure you get the foot button controls with it. That hand control confuses the hell out of everyone.

edit: yes this is my table

the longitudinal travel function is quite helpful...

oddly, a tiny feature that i really like that i dont see on the older oakworks is a small level built in to the c arm.

 

[BobBarker]

Yes, used the level yesterday. New MA was pressing multiple buttons and messed up the bed.

 

[RoloTomassi]

Agree oakworks is the gold standard table

May be getting a new table.
I’ve always used ones (Stille, Oakworks) that tapers near the shoulders and has a cutout for the patient’s face since I almost never sedate and want to be able to talk with them during the procedure…that said, does anybody use one with a solid top (without a cutout) and that doesn’t taper (just a long rectangle)? If so, any issues you have or feedback on patients if they like/dislike it?

No problem, just have a comfortable donut for their head.

We have a standard rectangle. It works just fine. Pillow at the top for all lumbar procedures. You do need something other than a standard donut for their head though for cervical stuff as it's hard for people to breathe with their face in the donut that's flat against a solid surface. I got one of these after a bunch of people complained about that issue and it's been smooth sailing since.
