Proactively repairing Exam Tables reduces risk and improves patient satisfaction
Most clinics and surgical centers have any number of exam tables which operate for years and years without issue. Over the years, time takes it toll on some of the critical parts of these often overlooked medical equipment assets. Most of these parts have been discontinued or are hard to find.
Below are some of the common issues we see when working on examination tables.
- Back pistons that do not lock or cannot be unlocked
- Back pistons that are "springy" and do not stay in position after being moved
- Worn out piston adjustment levers
- Broken center piston assemblies
- Ripped or damaged padding
- Loud piston or assembly noises during actuation or movement
Acela can help by:
- Performing a simple site audit to identify any tables that may need repairs
- Eliminating the need to replace large, heavy and bulky exam tables by sourcing hard to find parts
- Conveniently repairing tables on-site during off-hours
Facilities can:
- Realize exam table maintenance cost savings of over 80% compared to replacing the table with a refurbished one
- Provide a better patient experience and reduce risks associated with unexpected movement or operation of exam tables
