Latest surgical procedures such as minimally invasive and robotic surgery face various challenges in positioning the patient safely and providing adequate access to the surgical site. The increasing number of robotic surgeries requiring more specific positioners have spurred the surgical cushions market growth. D.A. Surgical TrenGuard is one of the most efficient and effective patient positioning system in the market.
Advancements in the medical field provide better and new hospital equipment for complex surgeries. Operating table is one of the most vital factor in the field of surgery. An ergonomic design of the patient positioning equipment is projected to minimize the risk of injuries and increase workflow efficiencies along with providing accurate delivery of prescribed radiation doses. However, implementation of the US Medical Device Excise Tax (MDET) in the U.S. from 2018 can impede the market growth. Importers and manufacturers of taxable medical devices will be subjected to 2.3% tax on the U.S. sales.
