Patient positioned safely on the operating table.
The BEACH-CHAIR+device was designed to help anaesthetists to carry out intubation. The patient is positioned comfortably and safety - and the staff, responsible for positioning the patient, will save time.
The BEACH-CHAIR+device was developed jointly with the practical experience of a specialist and Samarit Medical AG.
The device can also be used for operations while not in the beach chair position, for example:
Shoulder Surgery (Humerus, Clavikula), Shoulder Arthroscopy, Struma, Maxillofacial procedures, Facial Surgery, Neurosurgery
BEACH-CHAIR+ and it’s benefits.
• Easier intubation in the supine or a improve carotid access beach chair position.
• The patient can be anatomically positioned by changing the air pressure in the head or neck cushion.
• It is non-conductive reducing the chance of cautery burns. The beach chair protects the spine.
• It makes positioning easier and faster, saving time, up to 3x faster.
• Reduces patient problems in the neck and throat area after surgery.
The problems of Beach Chair positioning are well-known - we now have the solution.
The problem for patients:
As soon as the patient has been anaesthetised, the muscles and the cervical vertebrae relax. The head rest leaves marks on the back of the head and there is a high risk of the back being burned through contact with the metal.
After a longer procedure, patients often complain of severe neck pain and headaches. This is often due to the patient being placed in an uncomfortable position with insufficient neck support.
