April 4, 2022 tedisel

Technology achieves what humans cannot. Also in the field of health. There are countless tools to facilitate and complement the experience and work of medical professionals in hospitals and health centers, also achieving better, higher quality, more efficient and safer patient care.

Technology is the engine that drives the development and evolution of many sectors, including the healthcare industry. For decades, we have seen how innovation and technology in hospitals give a boost to health systems, improving their processes.

The main objective of tools for the health sector is usually to facilitate the work of doctors and the medical team and, of course, reduce human error. In this sense, an example of technology in hospitals are motor arm systems, especially in critical areas and operating rooms.

What are motor arm systems?

One of the most common medical instruments in hospitals are motor arm systems or articulated arm systems, whose advantages and benefits are multiple.

This system is an instrument made with innovative technology to facilitate surgical interventions and, at the same time, help in the recovery and well-being process of patients who have undergone surgery.

This type of medical equipment is composed of a modern mechanical structure that works, as its name indicates, as a kind of mechanical, articulated or motorized arms.

It is a modular system that offers surgeons and doctors the possibility of carrying out an infinite number of large, specific and immediate movements. Therefore, its use is common both in operating rooms and critical areas to carry out surgerys, intensive therapies, etc.

What are motor arm systems for?

This medical instrument has several functionalities that are concentrated in a single machine:

Serves as a source of electrical energy
Supplies gases and lighting
It can rotate on its own axis, facilitating its handling by the specialized medical team

Thanks to these characteristics and a versatile profile, motor arm systems are an added value and a guarantee for patients and doctors. Its qualities make it possible to significantly reduce possible complications in an operation. And therefore, they contribute to the successful completion of the surgery. In fact, on occasion, the use of this system can save the life of a patient.

Main functions of motor arm systems

These instruments for hospital use go beyond acting as arms. We are going to highlight what its basic functions are:

Adaptability and ergonomics

Due to its characteristics and versatility, it could be considered that the use of articulated arm systems requires a lot of space. However, this is not the case. This medical equipment allows to regulate the range of mobility depending on the available space. In addition, the different modules are removable and, once installed, the configuration can be changed easily in order to improve its operability according to the needs of the surgery and the healthcare personnel.

It is important that both the installation and configuration of this device for medical use is carried out by qualified personnel, with experience and knowledge of its operation.

In addition to adapting to space, thanks to its ergonomic design, it also adapts to the physique (height, for example) of the doctor. In addition, the change of positions also helps the staff not have to adopt uncomfortable positions that can cause damage or some type of pathology or injury.

Heads

It has a whole series of heads, so the motorized arms adapt to them. It also has hospital accessories and medical components and various supply modules.
