Powered transfer has been a reality at Varberg Hospital for many years. Easier procedures, less transfer times, reduced risk of infections, and increased patient flows are among the benefits appreciated by the hospital’s surgical teams. When the time came for the hospital to replace its motorised tables, which were deemed too old and worn, it naturally chose the new STERIS Cmax-T table. Georg Schwarz, the hospital’s biomedical engineer, tells us why: “The surgeons didn’t even dream of giving up the advantages of having powered transfer.
That said, they were surprised by the level of comfort the Cmax-T offers! It starts up gently and is easy to turn, accelerate and brake. The Cmax-T makes transferring patients a breeze!”. Another significant advantage of the Cmax-T is its multi-sectional tabletop and accessories which allow it to accommodate most surgical specialities, from urology and gynaecology, to shoulder surgery,  endoscopic surgery and more.
