Operation lamps are a special type of lamps that illuminate the surgical area to achieve optimal visualization of small, low-contrast objects at varying depths in incisions and body cavities. Its main function is to provide optimal visualization during a surgical procedure.
Lighting in an operating room is key to the success of every operation performed by surgeons. This illumination is made through the operation lamps which are special lamps designed to illuminate the surgical area, thus providing a bright and uniform illumination centered on the operating table during the surgical act, that is why the care and maintenance of these noble equipment is essential.
What is the function of the operation lamps?
The main function of the operation lamps is to provide adequate lighting during a surgical procedure. The light of these lamps should be white as in the operating room the doctor needs to be able to observe the color of any organ or tissue, as this is an indicator of the patient’s condition and health. This type of lamp should in turn provide hours of bright light without overheating the patient or health personnel involved in the operation.
Key aspects for the lighting of an operating room
- The light from the lamps should be white as in the operating room the doctor needs to be able to observe the color of any organ or tissue as this is an indicator of the patient’s condition and health.
- The more electric current, the more intense the light.
- Luminaires should be easily manipulated.
- Do not generate infrared (IR) or ultraviolet (UV) radiation as it may cause damage or injury to the body tissue that is exposed during surgery.
- Accessibility and easy maintenance.
- Offer intense light directed but that avoids the minimum visual fatigue and does not cause eye fatigue to physicians and assistants.
- A light that does not generate shadows and focuses on the surgical intervention area.
Care and maintenance of operation lamps
It is a must in every operating room, to thoroughly clean and disinfect smooth surfaces, edges and protruding screws of the operation lamps. Operation lamps must be coated with a high quality coating as a powder-like paint, free of solvents, its application does not pollute the environment, but above all produces a smooth surface, high brightness, without pores and high resistance to any disinfectant product.
And the sterilizable lamp grip should be placed centered in a very comfortable place, so that the surgeon can easily adjust the position of the lamp. The spare parts for the lamps must be able to be purchased normally and safely by the supplier.
What do we offer you in Kalstein?
At Kalstein we are MANUFACTURERS of medical equipment of the highest quality, and we make available novel lamps of operations at the best PRICES of the market. This time we present our YR02106 Operating Lamp. This lamp has revolutionary LED lighting technology: brilliant four-color blending concept. HERE
Light sources with four colors (green, amber, red and warm/cold white) are mixed exactly where it is created (in the single light beam capacitor), but not in the surgical field, which generates super high CRI (Ra & gt; = 95 Meanwhile, the new light source requires fewer LEDs to achieve ideal illuminance with less radiated heat.
