A next-generation procedure table sets a new benchmark for efficient and comfortable patient-focused design.

The Midmark 630 HumanForm procedures table is designed to enhance patient comfort while at the same time allowing physicians to remain in the proper working position throughout procedures. A range of virtually endless movement capabilities allows unobstructed access to the patient and a clear view of the surgical site. Powered height, back, foot, and tilt options provide the ability to quickly and precisely move the patient into the most effective medical position for a wide range of procedures, while minimizing patient discomfort and increasing time spent on the patient's needs.

Features of the procedure table include Motion Profiling to provide more natural, human-like movement that works with the patient and provider for a clear view of the surgical site, more precise positioning, and improved comfort; Active Sensing Technology (AST) to enhance patient and provider safety by helping to avoid harmful impact during movement, such as objects being caught under the seat and footrest; and uniquely contoured upholstery and an adjustable footrest cradle to provide the patient with a chair-like feel.

The Midmark 630 HumanForm procedures table is a product of Midmark (Dayton, OH, USA), and was designed to address the needs of changing patient demographics, with a 45 centimeter low seat height and a 295 kg patient weight capacity. All models come with standard hand and foot controls, and an optional programming feature can store up to four favorite positions, as well as an optional rotation feature that allows the table to bring the patient and necessary devices to the point of care.

“The Midmark 630 brings patient and provider together comfortably and safely at a time when the number of procedures performed in non-acute care settings continue to grow, and physicians are being asked to do more, for more people, with fewer resources,” said Kurt Forsthoefel, marketing director of the medical division at Midmark.
