MAGNUS OR table system

MAGNUS links functional areas: in addition to the actual

operation, preparation, transport and post-operative care
play a further significant and logistically complex role in all
surgical disciplines. For this reason, Maquet has been work-
ing for decades on solutions to integrate the individual fields
and their different challenges into a variable and comprehen-
sive system. The MAGNUS OR table system is the convincing
culmination of these efforts. With its special chassis frame
and the compatible transfer board, MAGNUS enables the
patients to be transferred gently from their bed to the operat-
ing table top. The electrically adjustable table top ensures
the transport to the operating theatre or diagnostic centre
in a position appropriate to the needs of the patient.
Until the table top and the patient are finally transferred by
the MAGNUS table column automatically and without any
further stress.

Ergonomic working conditions

In every position

Elevated postition

Upright and free of strain: the MAGNUS table top can

be raised to a height of 1,320 mm. This allows surgeons to
operate comfortably from a standing position, e. g. during
a total hip replacement in the dorsal position. Non-tiring
working conditions that provide relief from potential back
strain, even during longer surgery.

Lowered postition

Relaxed arms and shoulders: the extremely low setting

of the MAGNUS OR table system ensures safe and stress-
free operating, e. g. in minimally invasive laparoscopic inter-
ventions. A step stool is not needed.

The system – easy and versatile

for the challenges of today and tomorrow

MAGNUS allows for optimum positioning: the perfectly

coordinated modular design of the operating table top pro-
vides functionalities and positional options that make both
microsurgical and complex interventions significantly easier
and more flexible. The table system is ergonomically designed
to facilitate relaxed working and deliver the best possible pa-
tient comfort, both for in-patient and out-patient applications.
The combination of the innovative table column inclination
saddle technology, the extreme working radius and the opti-
mised cushioning concept provides an overall system, which
is already equipped to cope today with the requirements of
the future.

Flexibility and modularity

MAGNUS OR table top

MAGNUS facilitates all surgical interventions: due to Maximum adjustability – the new manoeuvrability in
its perfect height adjustment, the OR table top contributes OR tables: the inclination saddle concept supports even ex­-
to relaxed working, both while standing and sitting. Extreme treme table adjustments with angles that far exceed current
adjustment ranges, particularly for inclination and tilt, facili- standards. As a result, MAGNUS offers new possibilities,
tate and optimise patient positioning. This system feature particularly with minimally invasive surgery. But other surgical
offers levels of functionality that have never been achieved disciplines also benefit from this new development. Today,
before. MAGNUS is already designed for the future.

The modular, structural concept ticks all the boxes, when it comes to Extreme longitudinal position for intra-operative radioscopy and excellent
positioning requirements freedom of access for the OR team. Positioning example: nephrectomy in
lateral position

Positioning example: thorax surgery in lateral position Genucubital position for intervertebral disc or rectal surgery with the

Cushioning and radioscopy

MAGNUS cushioning concept and working radius

Best prerequisites for intra-operative radioscopy: due

to its extreme working radius, MAGNUS achieves a position
where the patient is almost “floating”, providing optimum
radioscopy possibilities and free access to the surgical field
from all directions.

Pressure-relieving positioning: in numerous test studies

quet has developed operating table cushioning that offers

Control and positions

MAGNUS hand-operated controller

Intuitive operation – easier than ever: the MAGNUS hand

controller is fitted with a display and self-explanatory icon
keys, which facilitate fast and intuitive handling. Up to ten
different patient positions can be stored and recalled from
the integrated program memory. Intermediate storing
is also possible, e. g. when using an intra-operative C-arm in
the flat position and then returning to the operating position.
The display, which is available in various language versions,
provides useful status information and indicates possible
operating faults, as required. Moreover, the back-lit key panel
considerably simplifies work in a darkened endoscopy room.

Movability, positioning and ergonomics:

MAGNUS transporters

Fast, safe and comfortable-in-use for the nursing staff:

Transporters with additional functions are twhe future-proof
response to the growing requirements of clinical procedures.
Because of its special chassis frame and the electrically ad-
justable table top, MAGNUS simplifies the transport of seated
and recumbent patients within the operating theatre.

Easy handling and safe manoeuvring: The MAGNUS

transporter has various castor settings: Tracking wheels for
stable straight-line travel, four movable castors for lateral
movement or locked castors for a safe parking position. It
can be activated or deactivated easily and ergonomically
through a foot lever.

Supporting patients and staff alike: Simplifying repositio- Technology for the logistic challenges of modern clinical procedures

ning, protecting the back muscles of the staff and optimally

supporting patients during every phase of surgery with co-
ordinated positioning options. MAGNUS exceeds the possi-
bilities of an OR table and is the lynchpin of modern OR
proceedures. The MAGNUS patient table top can also be ad-
justed on the transporter using an electric motor.

Whether the patient is in the “shock position” or “head

down” for a comfortable initial phase or with the back plate
in the upright position, e. g. in spinal anaesthesia or to sup-
port the patient’s respiration post-operatively, the MAGNUS
transporter always remains independent and flexible with its
lithium-ion battery and ensures ideal patient care at every
stage and at every location, inside or outside the operating
theatre.
