Urology Table

Urology Table

PRIMARY CLINICAL & DIAGNOSTIC USES

1. Patient Positioning for Urological Procedures

• Primary Use: Provides a specialized examination and procedure table designed for urological examinations and interventions, including cystoscopy, urethroscopy, ureteroscopy, and prostate biopsy. The table allows for lithotomy positioning with adjustable leg supports, Trendelenburg tilt, and optimal access for the urologist.

• How it helps: For the urologist and urology nurse, the specialized table provides the positioning needed to perform diagnostic and therapeutic procedures—allowing for optimal visualization of the urethra, bladder, and prostate while ensuring patient comfort and safety. For the patient undergoing a urological procedure, a table designed for these examinations supports proper positioning that reduces discomfort and facilitates efficient, accurate diagnosis.

2. Cystoscopy and Urethroscopy Procedures

• Primary Use: The table is designed for cystoscopy and urethroscopy, with features including stirrups for lithotomy positioning, drainage channels for irrigation fluids, and radiolucent surfaces for fluoroscopic imaging when needed.

• How it helps: For the urologist performing cystoscopy, the table provides stable, adjustable positioning with easy access to the urethral meatus—allowing for efficient examination of the bladder and urethra. For the patient, proper positioning reduces the time required for the procedure and minimizes discomfort.

3. Transrectal Ultrasound and Prostate Biopsy

• Primary Use: Accommodates transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy procedures, with positioning features that provide optimal access to the prostate while allowing the patient to be positioned comfortably for the procedure.

• How it helps: For the urologist performing prostate biopsy, the table provides the stable positioning needed for precise needle guidance—improving biopsy accuracy and reducing procedure time. For the patient, stable, comfortable positioning helps reduce anxiety during this sensitive procedure.

4. Lithotripsy and Ureteroscopy

• Primary Use: Designed for endoscopic stone procedures including ureteroscopy and lithotripsy, with features including radiolucent tabletops for fluoroscopic guidance, adjustable height for ergonomic access, and drainage systems for irrigation fluids.

• How it helps: For the endourologist performing stone procedures, the table provides the imaging compatibility and positioning needed to visualize and treat ureteral and renal stones—ensuring accurate stone localization and efficient fragmentation. For the patient, a table designed for stone procedures supports efficient, effective treatment with minimal repositioning.

5. Trendelenburg and Reverse Trendelenburg Positioning

• Primary Use: Motorized Trendelenburg and reverse Trendelenburg positioning allows for optimal patient positioning during procedures, using gravity to improve visualization and access to the urogenital structures.

• How it helps: For the urologist, adjustable tilt positions allow for optimal visualization of the bladder and urethra—using gravity to improve access and drainage during procedures. For the patient, controlled positioning changes are smooth and comfortable, reducing anxiety during repositioning.

SECONDARY & SUPPORTIVE USES

1. General Urological Examinations: Positioning for routine urological examinations, including digital rectal exams and prostate assessments.

2. Vasectomy Procedures: Table positioning for vasectomy and other minor urological surgeries.

3. Urodynamic Studies: Positioning for urodynamic testing to assess bladder function.

4. Fluoroscopic Imaging: Radiolucent tabletops for C-arm fluoroscopy during interventional procedures.

5. Drainage Collection: Integrated drainage systems for collection of irrigation fluids during procedures.

6. Bariatric Urology: Heavy-duty tables available for bariatric patients requiring urological procedures.
