No work environment requires more precision and performance from its equipment than a surgical operating room. Stryker, a leading medical technology and equipment firm, has brought the reliability of LED lighting into the operating room with their Visum lighting system.
The Stryker Visum system has multiple advantages over traditional halogen surgical lighting systems. The LEDs provide significant power savings over the bright but energy-hungry halogen lights, and more importantly, the LED lights are durable and reliable. This isn’t just a maintenance advantage – the middle of a surgical procedure is no time to replace a lightbulb.

The multi-reflector design of the Stryker Visum helps keep the illuminated are free of shadows, and provides excellent depth of field. The LED design maintains consistent color temperature even as the brightness is adjusted, while the same-color white diodes help prevent the rainbow color effect faced by multi-color LED arrays. The Visum LED system produces minimal heat, which means a more comfortable environment for those working in the operating room, as well as less heat transmission onto the sterile operating area. And a cooler lighting system provides indirect energy savings as well, since air-conditioning doesn’t need to combat excess heat from the lamps.
The Visum lighting system is available in single and dual-fixture designs, and it is compatible with integrated cameras for recording or broadcasting procedures.
