ABSTRACT
Objective To develop a detachable upper limb operation table for facilitating field surgery and improve the utilization rate of surgical shelter in field hospital.Methods The operating table was composed of a rectangular frame made of stainless steel and a table top of insulation board.The width of the rectangular frame was quartered,and two elastic fasteners were placed respectively at the points of a quarter and 3 quarters.The operating table came into being after the two fasteners were connected.Results The table had its height regulated as required and facilitated intraoperative X-ray exposure,and enhanced the efficiency and satisfaction of the surgeon and nurse.Conclusion The table gains advantages in size,carrying,operation and structure,and thus is applicable for upper limb operation in field shelter.
