Precision Mobile Platform for Eye and ENT Surgery Engineered specifically for Ophthalmology, ENT, and plastic surgery, the Hausted 578 Hydraulic Surgi-Stretcher provides an exceptional mobile surgical platform. Designed to seamlessly transition a patient from pre-op to the operating room and directly into recovery on a single surface, this stretcher significantly improves case turnaround times while maximizing patient safety and comfort.

Microscopic Articulation & Unobstructed Access During delicate head and neck procedures, specialized patient positioning is critical. The 578 features a low-profile articulating headpiece designed to grant surgeons maximum site access for both superior (over-brow) and lateral (side-approach) procedures. Utilizing dual operating control knobs, the surgeon can achieve infinite adjustability and precise, microscopic movement of the patient's head to secure the exact angle required for surgery.

Ergonomic Hydraulic & Manual Controls Caregiver strain is greatly reduced through a combination of intuitive hydraulic and manual controls. Dual-sided hydraulic foot pedals allow for smooth height adjustments and instant Trendelenburg positioning. Meanwhile, foot-end hand cranks provide reliable, exact control over the backrest and leg flex without the need for an external power source, ensuring the stretcher is always ready for use.

Key Features:

• Specialized Articulating Headpiece: Low-profile design with dual knobs for infinite, precise adjustments during delicate procedures.
• Dual Hydraulic Controls: Easy-to-use foot pedals located on both sides control height adjustment (24" to 32") and Trendelenburg positioning (16°).
• Hand-Crank Positioning: Foot-end hand cranks allow for precise control of the backrest (0-90°) and knee flex (0-75°).
• Retracto™ Side Rails: Premium stainless steel rails drop completely out of the way for zero-lift lateral patient transfers.
• Advanced Mobility: Four-wheel brake and steer system with 8-inch casters ensures smooth, precise maneuverability.
• Integrated Storage: Seamless thermoformed base cover features a built-in O2 tank holder and ample storage space for patient belongings.
