Surgical headlamps are medical devices used to support and stabilize the surgeon's head during surgical operations. These headlamps are designed to ensure that the surgeon can work in a comfortable and stable position. Surgical headlamps come in various structures and features and are used in various surgical procedures.

The principle of operation of surgical headlamps is to stabilize the patient's head and provide the surgeon with easy access. These headlamps typically consist of supports placed on the sides or back of the head. Stabilization is generally achieved using adjustable locking mechanisms, allowing the surgeon's head to be fixed in the desired position. Additionally, some surgical headlamps may have additional supports on the sides or underneath the head.

The use of surgical headlamps is quite widespread. These headlamps are used in various surgical fields such as neurological surgery, brain surgery, spinal surgery, ear-nose-throat surgery, plastic surgery, and eye surgery. The ability to stabilize and secure the patient's head helps the surgeon perform the operation more precisely and safely. Furthermore, surgical headlamps support the surgeon in working in an ergonomic position, reducing surgical effort.

Some technical terms related to surgical headlamps include:

• Head Holding Frame: The metal or plastic frame used in surgical headlamps, which is placed on the sides or back of the head to stabilize the surgeon’s head.

• Adjustable Lock Mechanism: The mechanism in surgical headlamps that ensures the head is fixed in the desired position. This mechanism is usually easy to adjust and lock.

• Sterilization: The sterilization process applied to ensure that surgical headlamps can be used in a hygienic and sterile environment. This process is typically performed through autoclaving or chemical sterilization methods.

Surgical headlamps are essential devices that enable surgeons to work comfortably and stably during operations. Stabilizing the head in the correct position helps the surgeon perform the surgical procedure more effectively and safely. Additionally, surgical headlamps provide an ergonomic working position, reducing the surgeon's fatigue and potentially shortening the duration of the operation.
