Electric Treatment Chair vs. Operating Table: VENUS & ECURA Compared

Electric Treatment Chair vs. Operating Table: Not every procedure requires an operating table – but when is which model the better choice? We compare the BRUMABA models VENUS and ECURA and show you the most important differences – so that you can make the best decision for your practice or clinic.

BRUMABA VENUS and ECURA Overview

  • VENUS is ideal when a fully-fledged operating table with maximum flexibility is required – especially for surgical or invasive procedures.
  • ECURA is ideal for a wide variety of non-invasive treatments with high comfort requirements, but without operating room approval

While the VENUS Operating Table from BRUMABA has full approval for use in the OR, the ECURA Electric Treatment Chair shines with compactness and a particularly slim design – ideal for non-invasive applications.

Electric Treatment Chair vs. Operating Table: Areas of application of VENUS and ECURA

If you have to decide between an electric treatment chair and an operating table, a lot depends on the area of application. VENUS combines the functions of an operating table and an electric treatment chair and is therefore predestined for surgical procedures, dermatological treatments and aesthetic operations. In contrast, the ECURA was specially designed for applications such as IVOM, cosmetics and dermatological therapies, as well as for tattoo studios – wherever precision and comfort are required, but no OR approval is necessary.

Comfort & Adjustability of the Two Models

Both models offer maximum patient comfort thanks to extra-thick, viscoelastic padding and electrically adjustable reclining surfaces. While the memory function of the VENUS offers eight memory locations for individual positions, the ECURA has a memory function with four memory locations – ideal for recurring treatment procedures. In addition, the ECURA has a separate button with the permanently stored Trendelenburg position for emergencies.

Equipment & Special Features

In terms of equipment, the VENUS Operating Table impresses with an integrated nose slit for prone positioning, an adjustable neck support, optional arm supports and a wide range of accessories – perfect for longer procedures and can be customized depending on the application. The ECURA, on the other hand, relies on a particularly ergonomic design with a slim base and a magnetic head section, which further increase treatment comfort.

The cordless VENUS Operating Table can be equipped with various chassis and, thanks to a powerful battery with a runtime of up to two weeks, is fully mobile and flexible. Operations and treatments are thus possible in a wide variety of rooms. Transporting the operating table becomes child’s play. The ECURA has an electric height adjustment and a fixed, slim base with a swiveling platform for additional foot operation. Thanks to the permanent power supply via a mains cable, a constant power supply is ensured – ideal for continuous use in everyday practice. The additional emergency power battery operation also gives the ECURA security for failure-free operation.

Both models are well thought out down to the last detail – made of high-quality stainless steel, customizable with up to 35 upholstery colors and ergonomically designed. Thanks to the BRUMABA hydraulic system, the VENUS Operating Table has a maximum load of up to 250 kg, while the ECURA has high-quality electric motors that enable a load of up to 200 kg.

Whether electric treatment chair or operating table – BRUMABA offers the right solution for every application, individually tailored to your practice or clinic.
