The operating room in our Minor Ops Suite has been fitted with an industry-leading new overhead surgical light as we continue to upgrade our facilities here at the Clinic.
The new light, a Brandon Medical Astramax HD-LED, was approved for installation by our Medical Director David Watt to provide even better conditions in our Minor Ops Suite for our team to operate on skin cancers and perform earlobe reconstructions. It has several features which our doctors are already benefiting from:
- significantly higher light intensity – brighter lighting and fewer shadows while operating
- full spectrum colour accuracy – a very balanced and full white light spectrum allows all colours to be seen clearly, making it easier to identify small variations in skin and tissue colour
- adjustable red balance – different quantities of red light in the beam help to compensate for the human eye’s difficulty in distinguishing between similar shades of red
It’s also very energy efficient, meaning that unlike with some traditional lighting systems, patients won’t experience a heating effect whilst under the light.
The installation of this new surgical light represents another significant investment as we ensure the highest standard of private clinic facilities for our medical team and, most importantly, our patients.
