Description

AcralMed Bariatric OR Table Width Extenders

The bariatric patient population in healthcare facilities has grown significantly in recent years. These patients often require specialized care and equipment to address obesity-related healthcare needs. As a result, healthcare facilities continue investing in equipment that better supports bariatric patients, especially in the operating room.

Most operating room tables measure only 24 to 26 inches wide, which may not provide adequate support for bariatric patients. Our bariatric OR table width extenders increase table width by up to 16 inches, creating a safer and more supportive surface. Additionally, they help facilities better accommodate the growing bariatric patient population during surgical procedures.

According to the National Institutes of Health Library of Medicine, the US has one of the greatest levels of obesity in the world. This growing trend requires healthcare facilities to prepare for the needs of bariatric patients. The bariatric width extender offers an easy, cost-effective way to help your operating room stay prepared.

These extenders feature built-in Posi-Lock rail clamps and aluminum side rails for secure attachment. Additionally, the side rails allow you to use compatible accessories without interference. Each extender adds 8 inches to one side of the operating room table. Use each extender individually or together as a pair to increase table width by up to 16 inches. They can also be used in tandem with the standard size OR Table Width Extenders.

Rest assured, these extenders lock securely to the existing siderail, ensuring stability and safety during procedures. 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, 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 the bariatric OR table width extenders for your facility!
