Examination/treatment table, manual (A non-mobile table designed for routine/minor medical examinations and/or treatment of the patient. It will typically consist of a framework with a flat table top surface which may have a head section that can be manually adjusted into a raised position. The height of the table may also be manually adjusted to fixed positions (i.e., set to an initial height but not readily adjustable). It may facilitate a paper roll holder from which paper is pulled to cover the table surface as a hygienic barrier for each new patient. This device is typically used in examination rooms or doctors' surgeries as a statically placed table.)
