Neurological tables are used for greater stability and are easy to use because of their reliability. The healthcare administrative staff makes careful choices when picking these tables based on the superior medical inspection and treatment. These tables are commonly used for the treatment of patients who suffer from neurological conditions, and also commonly used in a variety of physiotherapy departments. Let’s talk more about these useful tables.

Basic features of neurological tables Neurological tables are high-quality tables that are specially designed for optimum comfort for the patient. They carry a broader base with a large upholstered top where the patient can perform or carry out exercise movements. Thus, there has to be room and space for the patient as well as the therapist. A maximum height of 40” is created with the help of unique lifting mechanism. An electric actuator works behind, which is run and controlled by a foot switch. Retractable wheels allow the table to move around in any direction with ease.

Here are the standard features you will find in every neurological table:

  1. Large upholstered top

  2. Exceptionally low operating height

  3. Unique lifting mechanism for a smooth lifting action

  4. High-quality gas struts to adjust the back section safely & effortlessly

Different types of neurological tables Neurological tables come with different features, warranty and costs. The price of these tables can start from anywhere from $2000 and go beyond $8000. Some examples are Bariatric Neurological Table and Neurological Couch. They are specially designed to lift patients up to 400kg and carry space below that can help with patient hoist access. Neurological Couch carries a much broader base and thus offers increased stability. Just make sure that the tables provide simple access for patients. Many tables use the simple concept of four electric columns for adjusting the height and thus eliminate the risk of the 'trampoline' effect.” The risk is always there when heavy patients sit on one side of the table. Many make the positioning of patients even more comfortable with the help of three breathe holes with plugs.

The couch should become horizontal for the patient in emergency situations.  The desired features include high-density fire-retardant foam and low running costs. The table you buy should offer a firm and stable treatment surface for the physiotherapy departments. Always shop for neurological tables from a leading supplier or dealer in your locality.
