Wireless Footswitch for Leica Surgical Microscopes

The wireless footswitch offers reliable, uninterrupted, and stable communication with Leica surgical operating microscopes. Each footswitch is uniquely paired with a communication interface, ensuring no interference. This setup enhances the overall reliability and efficiency of surgical procedures.

The wireless footswitch allows surgeons to assign their preferred microscope and imaging functions to specific footswitch buttons, these individual layouts can simply be activated via the touchscreen prior surgery. This customization reduces workflow interruptions and unnecessary movements, promoting a more comfortable and efficient working environment for the operating surgeon. Additionally, the compact and lightweight design without cables allows for flexible positioning, reducing OR clutter.

The Leica wireless footswitch is designed for use with surgical microscopes, offering several common use cases: 

• Microsurgery: Surgeons can control microscope functions hands-free, reducing interruptions and maintaining a sterile environment.
• Ophthalmic Procedures: The footswitch allows precise control of imaging functions, enhancing efficiency and comfort during delicate eye surgeries.
• Customizable Workflow: Surgeons can pre-program the footswitch with their preferred functions, improving workflow and reducing unnecessary movements.
• Flexible Positioning: Its compact, cable-free design allows for optimal placement in the operating room, minimizing clutter and enhancing ergonomics.

Hands-free control, such as using a wireless footswitch, offers several advantages, especially in surgical settings: 

• Improved Efficiency: Hands-free operation reduces workflow interruptions, allowing surgeons to focus on the procedure.
• Comfort and Ergonomics: Surgeons can maintain a comfortable posture, minimizing physical strain during long surgeries.
• Customizable Control: Functions can be pre-programmed and customized, streamlining the surgical process.
• Reduced Clutter: Wireless design eliminates cables, reducing clutter and improving mobility in the operating room.
