Rectangular positioning cushion with cutaway 400 x 400 x 140 mm
The operating table rectangular cushion with cutaway (Length 400 x Width 400 and maximum height of 140 mm) is a hybrid surgical positioning block featuring a flat horizontal resting platform integrated with an inclined 14 cm cutaway slope. Its square 400 x 400 mm footprint delivers balanced anatomical support without abrupt drop-offs to elevate a limb, cushion the lumbar spine, or support the pelvis without slipping.

Why choose this cushion ?
This rectangular cushion with cutaway measuring Length 400 x Width 400 and maximum height of 140 mm is engineered for operating tables in surgical suites requiring steady anatomical elevation that bridges a level resting platform with a smooth, sloping transition to table level. Unlike simple triangular wedges that peak at a sharp ridge, its cutaway geometry provides a broad horizontal rest across its 14 cm crest that angles down along an inclined plane, eliminating sharp transition borders beneath delicate nerve paths and vascular bundles.
The completely flat base and vertical boundary surfaces ensure dependable stability directly on operating table sections. Unlike stacked surgical linens or curved rolls prone to flattening and shifting, this rectangular cutaway block will not slide, shift, or tilt under patient weight, securing reliable postural stability from start to finish. It works effectively beneath the popliteal fossa to maintain slight knee flexion, decompress the lumbar spine, and offload the calcaneus, or under an upper extremity to support the forearm while allowing the wrist and hand to align naturally along the decline during orthopedic, plastic, or vascular procedures.
The cushion is offered in two medical foam densities to meet surgical requirements: standard density for softer cushioning during brief procedures to relieve bony prominences, and very high density to prevent bottoming out under sustained load or heavier body weight, ensuring the 140 mm working elevation remains fully functional throughout surgery.
The outer medical-grade coating conforms strictly to operating theater infection control standards. Fully waterproof and impermeable to blood, irrigation fluids, and surgical prep solutions, its smooth surface prevents fluid penetration. The positioning block cleans and disinfects quickly between surgical cases using standard hospital-approved surface disinfectant sprays or wipes.
