Is the PURIST compatible with any surgical table?
Pretty much. Over the last >10 years, we have had very few situations in which our accessories did not fit!
The PURIST system is a free-standing device, and the accessories attach to the OR table side rails. Side rail dimensions can vary depending on the country, but this is not a problem. We offer various side rail attachments to fit various size side rails. Our accessories are currently used in markets with different size side rails such as the USA, Europe, Australia, and Japan.
There is no need to pair our systems with a traction table. In fact, more basic OR tables such as the STERIS 5085 or Maquet Magnus are preferred because they have fewer metal structures that could interfere with intraoperative imaging.
What is the best way to set up the OR table when using PURIST?
Follow all requirements of the OR table used. We recommend flipping the table orientation 180 degrees when possible so the long portion of the table base will be situated under the patient’s centre of gravity. This usually provides increased stability. Ensure there is adequate clearance for the C-arm to manoeuvre into place.
How is the PURIST classified in my country?
According to MDR and FDA regulations, PURIST is classified as a class I medical device.
What is the maximum patient weight for the device?
The PURIST is designed for patient weights up to 227 kg. However, if the patient weight limit of the OR table is lower than this, the table weight limit takes priority. Ensure to check the orientation of the OR table, as different orientations often have different weight limits. Always refer to the OR table user manual to ensure you are operating within their specifications.
Does the PURIST have patient height requirements?
No, the PURIST does not have patient height requirements.
Do you have different traction boot sizes?
Yes. The PURIST comes with a size medium boot in their standard configurations. We also offer a size small boot that can be purchased separately.
What is the footprint of the PURIST?
61 cm (2’) x 91 cm (3’)
