Universal operating table, electrohydraulic

Universal operating tables with electrohydraulic controls are motorized surgical tables designed to adjust patient positioning dynamically during procedures. Their segmented, articulating surfaces allow precise contouring—such as tilting, flexing, or curving—to support a wide range of surgical specialties, from orthopedics to neurosurgery.

These devices are typically regulated as medical equipment, often requiring compliance with safety and performance standards for surgical tables. They are commonly supplied as reusable hospital assets, though some may include disposable components like drapes or covers. Regulations may vary by jurisdiction, focusing on mechanical integrity and patient positioning safety.
