Expanded range of tilt angles:
OTESUS supports an even wider range of angles for combi‑
nations of Trendelenburg/reverse Trendelenburg and lateral
tilts – significantly expanding the patient positioning possi‑
bilities. This delivers benefits across all disciplines, and
opens up new opportunities for laparoscopic procedures
such as sigma resection.
Surgical Workplaces OTESUS 7
Angle indicator:
the angle indicator clearly displays the angles of Trendelen‑
burg/reverse Trendelenburg, lateral tilt, and the position of
the back plate. Furthermore, it provides orientation, facilitates
communication in the OR with regard to patient positioning,
and aids with documentation.
Easy click:
MAQUET's Easy‑Click interface makes adding and removing
modules simple, efficient and intuitive. This minimizes the
time required for patient setup, and for tailoring OTESUS to
specific procedures.
Transponder technology:
as a safety feature, selected accessories that can be
mounted on the leg plate mounting points are equipped
with special transponders. OTESUS tracks the
transponders, and issues a warning when the accessories
are on a collision course with the column or floor – even
if the table top is positioned in reverse.
hygienic Design:
The electrolyte finish of the stainless steel surface reduces
the adhesion of bacteria and makes it easier to remove
residue.
Simple machine cleaning:
various transporters, table tops and accessories may be
machine decontaminated, ensuring the highest hygiene
standards.
Note: Hygienic Design does not replace existing cleaning and disinfection procedures or protocols.

A range of improvements: the new OTESUS stationary

in today's modern operating rooms. A number of innovative
features improve ergonomics, create new patient positioning
opportunities, and boost patient safety.

ates a more ergonomic working environment for surgeons, allowing them to operate either standing or seated. In addi‑tion, very low table settings provide better access to bariatric patients and patients in beach chair and lateral positions.
User-friendly and efficient: the new OTESUS transporter
was designed for even greater ease of use and enhanced
ergonomics. It features large wheels for excellent maneuver‑
ability, and allows for precise positioning with minimal physi‑
cal effort.
The table tops can be transferred from the transporter
to the table column from the head or foot position. For the
transfer, OR staff can use the intelligent hand control or the
foot pedal that frees up their hands for other tasks.
