Every woman needs to visit a gynecologist twice a year for prevention purposes. Preventive examination will help to avoid the appearance of unpleasant diseases, the development of infection or eliminate them in the early stages. For many, this procedure causes discomfort, embarrassment and fear. Some women put off visiting a doctor, even with obvious symptoms of the disease.

A good chair will help the patient relax and create optimal conditions for examination.

Although outwardly all types of products are quite similar, but each of them has its own characteristics in the design.Particular attention should be paid to ways to regulate the position of the patient, as well as the presence of additional features that will create comfortable conditions for the client.
Devices with a mechanical method of regulation are designed for multi-stage changes in the dorsal and pelvic region, as well as the height of the chair itself. Typically, mechanical chairs have two levers that adjust the height and angle of the backrest. This version of the equipment is strong and durable, and it can also withstand very heavy patients. But manipulations to adjust the parameters of the chair cannot be carried out after the patient has landed. Usually, the gynecologist pre-sets the optimal parameters that will be convenient for any patient.
The second type of obstetric and gynecological chairs is powered by a gas spring. This option is a pneumatic device that runs on gas energy. To change the patient's position, you do not have to make additional efforts, and there will also be a smooth move, without sudden movements. But such a mechanism can quickly fail. This is due to poor quality ammo. As a result, the back of the chair cannot be adjusted, it will constantly recline to the floor. There will be no further work with such a chair. It is worth noting that work can be restored if the spring is replaced. But it must be specially made for a chair of this brand, have the same parameters as a damaged spring. Unfortunately, a damaged spring cannot be repaired.
The third type includes devices with hydraulic control. The hydraulic design is large and heavy.The piston is installed under the seat and with its help you can adjust the height of the chair. Such a device is quite difficult to operate and maintain, since liquid leakage often occurs due to high pressure. Currently, chairs with such a system are almost never used.
Modern gynecological chairs are equipped with an electric drive, which is an electric motor connected to an adjustable part. In such chairs, it is possible to adjust not only the height or angle of the backrest, but also the change in the pelvic section. The most common drives are from German and Danish manufacturers; in the event of a breakdown, it is easy to find spare parts for them.
Since with the help of this device the gynecologist will not only examine patients, but also perform certain manipulations and even surgical interventions, certain parameters must be taken into account when choosing. Considering all the nuances, comfortable conditions will be created for both the patient and the doctor.
First you need to pay attention to what height the product can fall and rise. How low it can sink affects how easily and quickly a client can sit on it. And the maximum height is required for the convenience of operations or inspection.
The size of the chair plays an important role in choosing a particular model. Large dimensions in a small office will create inconvenience in performing certain manipulations. But also, the back and pelvic section should not be too small, otherwise women with a high body weight or a wide pelvis will be uncomfortable during the examination. In addition to dimensions, the weight of the device itself should also be noted.Electric chairs are heavy, which will make it impossible to move it while cleaning the room. To facilitate this task, it is better to take chairs with wheels.
Consider what weight load this gynecological equipment can withstand. Many models have a maximum load capacity of 100 kilograms. Based on this, it is impossible to accept patients with overweight. Also, given the constant load, such devices will quickly fail.
If you want the equipment you have chosen to serve you for more than one year, then you should also look at the material of manufacture of the components. For example, plastic leg holders will quickly become unusable with frequent admission of patients with considerable weight, and there are a lot of such patients in our country. It will not be possible to replace this design as they are not sold separately. Therefore, it is better to give preference to a foot holder with a metal base. And a good addition would be the ability to adjust the height and angle of this part. To create comfortable conditions for the examined women, it is desirable to have armrests. With their help, it will be more convenient for them to lift, but their presence is not necessary.
Also pay attention to the quality of the lining material. The chair will be used every day, after each patient it will be necessary to treat it with chemicals, and a UV lamp will also work in the office. These factors affect the appearance of the device. After such constant exposure, cheap leatherette upholstery will quickly lose its presentable appearance, and after a while it may begin to tear, which will require its complete replacement.
