Abstract: A lighthead for operating room service, said lighthead comprising a plurality of light sources, preferably LED elements, for generating a light field on a site to be illuminated, as well as adjustment elements for modifying features of said light field, said adjustment elements comprising a user interface for modifying features of the light field by the actions of a lighthead operator, characterized in that the user interface further comprises projection elements for projecting adjustment instructions on or around the light field. A method utilizing the lighthead for projecting adjustment instructions is presented.

Abstract: An operating room lighting system, which comprises a lighthead support for a lighthead with a plurality of light elements, especially LED light elements, for generating a light field on an object to be illuminated, as well as adjustment elements for controlling features of the lighting system, especially for controlling features which modify a light field generated by the lighthead, said adjustment elements comprising a portable pointing device for controlling the lighting system by means of a pointing beam by the action of a lighting system operator. In the invention, the portable pointing device further comprises projection elements for projecting adjustment instructions on or around a light field generated by the pointing device and/or on a light field generable or generated by the lighthead.

Abstract: A method (100) for controlling lighting includes using a portable pointer device, intended for the focusing of lighting, to determine (310) its position for establishing position data, and transmitting (150) the position data to a control unit, which is intended for controlling a lighthead and which controls the lighthead in such a way that the lighthead produces lighting for an object from a direction determined by the position data and location data, the location data having been established by determining a location of the pointer device in relation to the lighthead.

Abstract: A surgical operating table has a plurality of sections, connected to each other and capable of being pivoted at least in vertical plane, and upon which the patient is rested while a surgical procedure is performed. These sections include a back support, which comprises a lower back section, a middle back section protruding therefrom, and two shoulder sections disposed on either side of the middle back section and releasably secured to the lower back section. In the releasing process, the shoulder section is first pivoted to an inclined angle downward from a plane of the lower back section and the middle back section, thus enabling a protrusion on the shoulder section to be released from a clamping of the frame portion and the rod, on the lower back section after which the shoulder section is capable of being pulled away and removed from the lower back section.

Abstract: According to one exemplary embodiment, the application relates to a method for controlling an operating table with a portable device by receiving an operating table activation command by way of the portable device's touch screen and transmitting an adjustment command consistent with the activation command wirelessly to an operating table for controlling the same in accordance with the adjustment command.
