The KL-D V is an electric operating table for hospitals that want to control every position, transfer, and move. Surgeons, anaesthetists, scrub nurses, and operating department practitioners rely on it from the moment the patient arrives until the team wheels the table away.
Patient transfer is the first point of risk in any case. With electrically braked castors, the table stays put while the team slides the patient across from a trolley. Once the patient is positioned, the self-locking controls hold the chosen angle through long operations, whether that is 26° Trendelenburg for pelvic surgery or 17° reverse Trendelenburg for upper abdominal and laparoscopic work.
General and urological surgeons use the ∧ shape, the lumbar corners and the 100 mm waist board lift for kidney and flank approaches, with the shoulder and waist supports holding the patient steady on the side. Gynaecology lists use the leg boards, which drop 90°, together with the leg supports. The headboard’s 90° range up and down suits head, neck and thyroid surgery, and the high-rise arm support positions the arm for breast and axillary procedures.
Orthopaedic and trauma teams insert the headboard at the leg end when a C-arm needs to reach the whole body without the column in the way, so fractures of the pelvis, spine and limbs can be imaged during fixation. The screen frame keeps the anaesthetic area separate from the sterile field.
Infection prevention teams value the gap-free mattress and stainless rails and covers, which staff wipe and disinfect between cases, and estates staff value a die-cast frame that resists rust. Busy general hospitals running mixed lists gain most.
