Cushion for Tasserit© type sacral rest supports measuring 180 x 100 mm

This sacral rest cushion measuring 180 x 100 mm is engineered for surgical suites to equip compact pelvic positioning plates on Tasserit© type operating tables. Tailored to fit the precise mechanical footprint of this specific surgical support, this medical pad delivers a stable, firm, and protective contact surface essential for patient immobilization during lower limb orthopedic and trauma procedures.
During total hip arthroplasty, intramedullary femoral nailing, and femoral fracture reductions on extension tables or traction frames, the sacral bracket absorbs massive procedural forces. This cushion withstands heavy axial traction loads and counter-pressures generated during fracture manipulation without bottoming out or shifting. With its compact 18 x 10 cm footprint, it provides rigid skeletal fixation of the pelvic girdle while maintaining clear surgical clearance and unobstructed fluoroscopic imaging access under C-arm guidance.

The medical foam padding is engineered to distribute heavy pelvic loads evenly across the targeted contact area, protecting the prominent bony landmarks of the sacrum and posterior iliac crests. It eliminates concentrated focal pressure spikes and completely isolates the patient from the rigid metallic or composite framework of the Tasserit© bracket. This effective cushioning actively protects vulnerable skin and subcutaneous tissues against shear stresses, tissue ischemia, and intraoperative pressure sore formation during lengthy surgical cases under general or spinal anesthesia.
The outer medical-grade coating complies strictly with 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.
