THE FALKO 3D VISOR
FALKO is the innovative Head-Mounted Display (HMD) designed and developed by Tecnomed Italia specifically for the medical field. The Visor, is registered as a medical device and complies with EU Regulation 2017/745 and the relevant harmonised standards. It is designed for use in hospital operating theatres, surgery centres, and clinics.
FALKO allows visualising video information from any medical imaging equipment, including magnifying cameras, micro-operators, dynamic navigation hardware for surgery, multi-parameter monitors, ultrasound scanners and more, in real time.
By wearing it, the medical professional has the possibility to work with an enlarged view of the area, constantly maintaining a correct posture, looking towards the patient, and with perfect hand-eye coordination.
A distinctive aspect of FALKO is the dedicated software, which enables tele-cooperation in healthcare. This allows medical professionals from all over the world to actively participate in a surgery remotely, as if they were physically present in the operating theatre.
When the point of view of the practitioner wearing FALKO is shared with authorised remote users, they are able to make real-time notes to the surgical video. These notes can be made in different forms, such as freehand signs, written text or predefined shapes, and are visualised in real time by the practitioner as augmented reality elements, superimposed on the area visible through the viewer.
Work-Related Musculoskeletal
Complaints in Surgeons
Today, the health of healthcare professionals is the focus of numerous studies and specific protocols defined on the basis of work areas and types of problems reported.
Recently, in the UK, 130 anonymous surveys were sent out to surgeons of different specialties. Almost 80% of them mentioned suffering from musculoskeletal pain on a regular basis.
The main causes are:
The postures of the staff are also mainly aimed at providing a better view of the intervention area, involving physical proximity to the patient and a direct view of the surgery area. This bent-forward posture assumed by the staff results in increased muscular efforts to balance the upper body and contractions of the lumbar muscles.
Clinical studies over the last decade have repeatedly confirmed that the use of the HMD medical visor, which allows the image produced by the Medical Device to be displayed directly in the surgeon’s eyes in real time, optimises time, solves the above-mentioned problems and more.
In hospital surgery, the use of head-mounted displays is becoming increasingly common. But we are talking about costs that are impossible for all other medical/surgical contexts, especially with regard to MULTIFUNCTIONAL and MULTISECTORAL visors.
The FALKO 3D Visor is specifically designed for medical applications, surpassing the limitations of commercial visors. It facilitates medical training, enhances communication with patients and combines advanced technology with ergonomic design for optimal operational efficiency in maxillofacial, endodontic, and prosthetic fields.
