A traction table, line-powered, is a mobile medical device used in clinical settings to apply controlled mechanical traction to a patient’s spine. It helps relieve pressure on the lumbar or cervical regions by using motorized adjustments, such as adjustable table sections, rotational rollers, or traction masts with accessories like head halters or pelvic belts. This aids in managing conditions like spinal misalignment, muscle tension, or post-surgical recovery by gently stretching the spine under professional supervision.
These devices are typically regulated as medical equipment designed for therapeutic use, often requiring compliance with safety and performance standards depending on the jurisdiction. They are supplied as hospital-grade equipment, intended for use in physical therapy clinics, orthopedic departments, or rehabilitation centers. Regulations may vary by country, but they generally fall under broader medical device classifications based on risk and intended clinical application.
