Bariatric OR Package: Table, Bed and Trolley Coordination

A bariatric OR package coordinates the operating table, the patient bed and the trolley for a higher-weight patient, and the load rating is the thing that makes it work. Without a coordinated package, the table carries the patient and the trolley does not.

What a bariatric OR package includes

The package has three coordinated items: the operating table rated for the patient weight, the patient bed and the trolley that move the patient, and the fixtures and the lift that transfer the patient. Each has a load rating, and the package works only if the ratings line up, so a patient who fits the table does not fall at the transfer step.

Package items compared

Confirm the load rating on each item, not just the table, because a bariatric package fails at the weakest link. The table, the bed and the trolley must all carry the same weight for the transfer to be safe.

For a US-market product, an accurate description of the load rating and any claim you make should be correct.

See the US Federal Trade Commission on product claims for the accuracy behind a load rating.

FAQ about a bariatric OR package

What is a bariatric OR package?

The coordinated operating table, patient bed and trolley rated for a higher-weight patient, so the patient is carried and transferred safely across the whole pathway.

Why does a bariatric package fail?

It fails at the weakest link. If the table carries the weight but the trolley does not, the transfer is unsafe, so confirm the load rating on each item.

Does the load rating matter on the bed and trolley?

Yes. The table, the bed and the trolley must all carry the same weight, or the package is not coordinated for a bariatric patient.

What should I confirm before buying?

The load rating on each item, the package coordination and the transfer fixtures, so the patient moves safely from bed to table to trolley.
