The bariatric patient population in healthcare facilities has experienced a significant increase in recent years. These individuals, who often face health challenges related to obesity, require specialized care and accommodations. Healthcare facilities are adapting to meet their unique needs by investing in specialized equipment, particularly in the operating room (OR). However, most OR tables have a width of 24-26 inches, which is insufficient for these patients. Our OR Table Width Extenders offer a solution by providing an additional width of up to 8 inches for your OR table. This will help support the bariatric patient population in your facility.
According to the National Institutes of Health Library of Medicine, the United States has one of the highest levels of obesity in the world. This is a concerning trend, so it is crucial that we are aware and prepared to care for these patients in our healthcare facilities. The Bariatric OR Table Width Extender is an easy and affordable way to ensure your OR is ready for this.
These extenders are designed with built-in “posi-lock” rail clamps and aluminum side rails, allowing you to conveniently use necessary accessories without any hindrance. Each extender adds 4 inches to both sides of the OR table and can be used individually or as a pair. They can also be used in conjunction with the Bariatric OR Table Width Extenders.
Rest assured, these extenders lock securely to the existing siderail, ensuring stability and safety during procedures. Additionally, they offer quick and easy setup for your convenience. Please note that the pad is sold separately, allowing you to customize your setup for various thicknesses of table pads. As you look to accommodate the bariatric patients in your OR, or maybe just those patients and procedures that need a little bit more width, these width extenders will allow you to do so safely, without adding large capital equipment purchases. Use your existing equipment and care for a wider range of patient BMIs safely. Look no further for OR Table Width Extenders for your facility!
