Abstract
A table ( ) for an operating room providing a cantilevered over-patient instrument surface ( ) that can be swiveled away from the operating field without moving the base ( ) of the table. The instrument surface may have two levels ( ) with a variable degree of overlap between the levels to form an instrument surface of a desired area. The instrument surface may further have a curved edge ( ) so that the proximity of the instrument surface to the operating field does not change as the instrument surface is rotated relative to its base. A sterile drape ( ) covers the instrument surface and extends downward to be attached around the table support structure ( ). The drape may be formed of two sections ( ) having overlapping tail portions ( ). The base may include a footpad ( ) for a nurse ( ) working at the table. Spring-loaded rollers ( ) facilitate movement of the table across the floor ( ) while withdrawing under the weight of a nurse standing on the footpad to provide unmoving contact between the base and the floor when the table is in use.
