  • Adjustable-height tables designed to test for syncope by moving the patient through various positions while the patient is strapped to the table (i.e., tilt test). These tables move by electric motors (usually with battery back-up) and are operated by electronically-controlled hand units. The patient is placed on the examination/tilt table in a head up position with the head elevated higher than the feet and legs in a reverse Trendelenburg position. The table is then moved so that the patient is in the head-down position where the head is lower than the feet and legs in the standard Trendelenburg position. Typically, the tables can travel from 70 degrees head up reverse Trendelenburg to 15 degrees head down Trendelenburg in 13 seconds. Adjustable tilt test tables have straps to secure the patient to the table, a foot-board support for when the patient is in the head-up position and removable drop sections to allow for the introduction of imaging and cardiovascular equipment for syncope testing. Sections of the table may also fold-up to offer back support to the patient when the patient is lying on his/her side. Tilt test adjustable examination/treatment tables are used in cardiovascular and neurological diagnostic settings to test patients that experience syncope.
