pack plays a big part in comfort, too. In addition to it possibly being
too heavy on the surgeon's hip or head, it also generates a fair amount
of heat during use.
Keep the end goal in mind
Our overriding goal is to offer our surgeons the bright light, comfort
and convenience that they want so they can deliver the best possible,
most efficient patient care. If that means choosing a headlight that
costs more than the others, but was the clear winner in our trial, then
that's what we'll do.
