Allowing for a minimally invasive approach to total hip replacement, use of the hana hip and knee arthroplasty table provides a faster recovery time with less pain.
The hana hip and knee arthroplasty table contains two carbon fiber spars with a Spherical Spatial Positioning System that facilitates leg positioning during surgery to allow for better exposure of the patient’s hip. Because of the carbon fiber construction and radiolucent leg spars, physicians also benefit from enhanced imaging capabilities, as X-rays can be taken through the spars to ensure the patient’s leg is in the proper position. The hana table also features a mechanical lifting device, which helps to lift the femur out of the wound to facilitate preparation of the femoral component.
Other features of the hana hip and knee arthroplasty table include unrestricted access to C-arm imaging, a 420-pound patient capacity, low table profile for easy patient transfer, continuous LED monitoring, Tempur-Med Pad technology that contours to the patient’s anatomy — which improves comfort and safety during surgery — and a fracture kit to support surgical treatment for fractures of the lower extremities. At Princeton Baptist Medical Center, the hana hip and knee arthroplasty table is being used for anterior hip arthroplasty and hip and femoral fracture care. Partial knee arthroplasty has also been performed using the device.
