Pediatric round lateral support cushion diameter 60 mm

This pediatric round lateral support cushion measuring 60 mm in diameter with a 50 mm thickness is engineered for surgical suites to equip circular lateral braces and positioning pads on pediatric operating tables. Designed to match compact round mounting plates found on pediatric lateral positioners, this medical pad delivers a firm, stable, and protective contact surface essential for patient stabilization during varied operative setups.
In pediatric orthopedic, general, and trauma surgery, reliable lateral stabilization of the pelvis, chest wall, or iliac crests is critical to prevent patient shifting during table tilting or lateral decubitus positioning. With its scaled-down 6 cm diameter footprint, this cushion matches the slender anatomy of children and infants without crowding the surgical field. Its generous 50 mm thickness provides deep shock absorption against rigid side brackets without bottoming out, keeping young patients safely aligned within the intended operative axis.

The medical foam padding dissipates localized contact pressure evenly across the circular footprint. It eliminates concentrated focal pressure spikes and isolates the patient completely from the rigid metal or composite framework of the lateral brace. This thick protective cushioning actively safeguards fragile pediatric skin and subcutaneous tissues against shear stresses, bruising, and compression injuries during surgical cases under general anesthesia.
The outer medical-grade coating complies strictly with pediatric operating theater infection control standards. Fully waterproof and impermeable to blood, irrigation fluids, intravenous solutions, and surgical skin prep disinfectants, its smooth surface prevents fluid penetration. The cushion cleans and disinfects quickly between surgical procedures using standard hospital-approved surface disinfectant wipes or sprays.
