O.R. Support gets this question a lot. We are often asked if we can add one or more motorized movements to a physician’s pain management c-arm table. This question normally happens after the pain management doctor has attended a cadaver injection workshop where one of the instructors showed them a new way to do an injection or a faster way to perform some other pain management procedure.
There are 5 standard motorized pain management table movements:
- Height adjustment
- Lateral tilt
- Trendelenburg – Reverse Trendelenburg (most physicians count that as one movement)
- Extend retract (sometimes called head to toe or X motion)
- Side to side slide (Y motion)
Other c-arm table movements:
- Four-way free float (manual movement – mostly used for vascular procedures)
- Four-way motorized float (a combination of X and Y motions)
- Fowler back (a backrest that raises up to 90 degrees)
The good news is yes you can upgrade your current used c-arm table. The price just depends on the brand and type of surgical imaging c-arm table you have. If you have one of the modular PMT 8000 c-arm tables, then it is easy. The factory just sends in a factory trained c-arm table service engineer and they will add motors, pivot points and sometimes linear rails for head to foot movement or side to side slide and you are back up and running (It seems like there should be a good pain management pun here. If you think of one send us a note and we will insert it here and give you credit) ..anyway…it normally takes 1-3 hours. Not very long at all.
