The Hand Table® is a simple design. Set down the base, set down the sides, set the top on it. Done. The Hand Table® has a niche. And that niche is working on the palmar aspect of the hand. Those incisions get long, and you have to look back and forth from the beginning to the end of the incision while you have an assistant retracting and they are moving all the time and likely not where you want them to be; and their hands are tied up. It can be frustrating. A table like this actually retracts the tissues for you. It frees up your hands and your assistant’s hands so you can do the work that needs to be done. Having a device like this no doubt improves the efficiency, the ease, decreases the frustration and obviously the time. It’s certainly something every hand surgeon should have in their armamentarium.
This is a design quite familiar to most hand surgeons. Many request it shortly out of their training window, for good reason. LOW PROFILE, static retraction that stays. I don’t need to waste an assistant for that. Invaluable for longer cases, particularly involving micro work requiring variable surgical working angles. Suction drain at far edge of pan is a clever addition. Durable, easy to clean, process.
The Hand Table® is a hand surgeons best friend! It makes positioning a hand easy and allows for a surgeon to operate with good exposure and retraction with or without an assistant. I’m able to be efficient and it enables my assistant to provide more crucial help to the cases outside of retraction and holding the hand position. There are no other comparisons on the market right now and it’s a must have at all of the surgical facilities we operate at!
