Telemetry Desk & Radiology Imaging Console Manufacturer - North America

Furniture Fundamentals of Designing a Telemetry Lab

In hospitals and medical centers, telemetry lab spaces are often set up with numerous groups of computer monitors where the technicians can monitor their patients. Medical professionals work on fixed prefabricated desks or benches. This can result in a lack of efficiency due to the uncomfortable workstations and a load of complaints from the staff.

For this reason, planning to build or update your imaging or telemetry room requires an understanding of the design criteria and best ergonomic practices before getting started. Sustema's professional team of industrial designers, installers, and customer support staff will work alongside you every step of the way.

Some considerations include not only the ergonomics of the desks but also their functionality. For this type of situation, the desks need to accommodate multiple CPU monitors, power and data cables, telephones, printers, barcode scanners, keyboards, mice, KVM switches, speakers, and routers. The desks also need to properly handle the weight of all necessary equipment, be able to provide vertical and focal depth monitor adjustment and be able to raise and lower their surfaces to fit any individual.

Telemetry and Imaging Room Design Checklist

The process of selecting a radiology imaging desk furniture manufacturer may seem overwhelming at first but Sustema's team is here to guide you throughout the process.

Here is a question checklist to start narrowing down the basics

• How many people will be using this room on average?
• Has the hospital or your facility assigned a project manager or an architect?
• Has an ergonomist approved your project?

• Are there work-related injuries that need to be addressed?

• What are the current issues with the room?
• What is your budget?
• What is your timeline?
• What equipment will be used on the desk?
• Where is the power coming from?
• Is this a new build or a remodel?

These are all great questions to ask yourself and your team which will help you clarify the functionality of the room and its impact on the work of doctors and nurses using the room. This will also be beneficial when the time comes to talk with furniture manufacturers.

To determine the best fit for all your radiology “stakeholders,” make sure you meet and get feedback from your radiologists, purchasing department, IT department, and administration.
