A patient table, modified with a fixed-base design thereby allowing for heavier patients, greater tilting and cantilevering capabilities, greater table top extension (i.e. providing head to toe coverage), and overall stability, is described. The operating room table re-design includes incorporation of utility sources into the architecture of the table, so that utilities, such as wiring, vacuum, and gas hoses, arise from the table itself, rather than tracking over the operating room floor. The source of all utilities to the table (as opposed to those emanating from the table) may come from an underground connection. Further, the table is interchangeable with tables customized for a specific procedure. |
