RIMSA uses only white LEDs in all of its medical lamps, effectively eliminating the issue of colored shadows during procedures. The LEDs engineered by RIMSA deliver a light output that can reach a color temperature of 5,000K—a level of pure white light that closely resembles natural daylight at solar noon.
In addition to superior brightness, RIMSA’s LEDs offer an exceptional Color Rendering Index (CRI), ensuring that every tissue, instrument, and surface is illuminated with true-to-life color accuracy, which is critical in surgical and clinical environments.

The colour rendering index (CRI) measures the ability of a light source to reproduce colours accurately. According to IEC 60601-2-41, the scialitic lamps are able to guarantee a minimum value of the CRI. Due to their specific use and importance, RIMSA’s scialitic lamps guarantee the perfect CRI value for faithfully reproducing colors.

Added to this is the advantage of a lower temperature generated on the printed circuit board, which guarantees a longer life, less light degradation and a greater scialytic effect than a direct reflection solution.

Instead of using direct light principles, RIMSA focuses on reflected or indirect light. The advantages are functional and strategic: the use of indirect LED technology increases the light-emitting surface; the indirect reflection allows to obtain a larger illuminated surface using fewer LEDs; The use of fewer LEDs results in greater energy savings and lower material consumption.

When it comes to surgical lighting, you should always consider the impact of the quality of lighting on the surgeon’s eyes. Their visual comfort is of paramount importance.
The RIMSA scialytic lamps are designed to put the surgeon, doctors and team in perfect comfort: their characteristics ensure the right brightness and guarantee a perfect visibility, without straining the eyes, Cause glare or force the surgeon and team to take incorrect positions to ensure better vision.

In the operating room, every gesture is important. RIMSA has equipped its surgical lamps with ergonomic devices to direct light in a simple and functional way. RIMSA designs and produces the arms of its lamps according to the principles of ergonomics: they are made of aluminium to reduce weight, while ensuring excellent stability.
By designing its own support structures internally, RIMSA is able to better respond to any need, offering customized solutions based on the size of each installation. In addition to custom support structures, RIMSA also offers two bracket configurations: single bracket or double bracket. While the double bracket is the only configuration offered by all other manufacturers, RIMSA also offers a single bracket solution to meet the requirements of installations with low ceilings.

In operating rooms, maintaining a sterile environment is essential to prevent infection. An effective method of controlling bacterial load in the operating field is the use of laminar airflow. It is interesting to note that the shape of the object, like a lamp, hit by the laminar airflow does not affect the turbulence of the air created. However, the temperature of the object under the airflow significantly influences the turbulence: higher temperatures increase the turbulence.
To overcome this problem, RIMSA designs its lamps with materials that promote heat dissipation. The body and dome of RIMSA lamps are made from die-cast aluminium, effectively reducing the heat radiated by the lamp head. In addition, the internal components, including the LED PCB, are made of aluminum, copper and ceramic, minimizing heat generation at the source. This design choice not only lowers the operating temperature of the LEDs, but also improves the interaction of the lamp with the laminar airflow, extending the life of the product.

RIMSA has installed an optical lens system in its products so that the light beams coincide and are always perfectly focused at any distance between 70-140 cm from the operating field.

The feeling of blinding from glare occurs not only when the surgeon looks directly at the light source, but also when the eye deflects its gaze from the center of the illuminated area to the edge of the surgical focus. This type of glare is called indirect glare and is caused by the eye passing through areas with different light intensity, such as the passage from the illuminated surgical field to any other area in the operating room. This sudden change in intensity can cause numerous problems.
Firstly, this kind of glare causes visual discomfort; surgeons would try to be more comfortable by continually changing positions to improve their vision, but in doing so they would sacrifice concentration. The loss of concentration caused by glare can be harmful to patients. In 2013, it was discovered that transitional lighting reduces the feeling of glare. With UNICA RIMSA has solved this limit by introducing a compensation area that allows a “progressive and gradual adjustment of the light intensity”
