Cushion for 4145305® lateral support fixtures

This lateral support cushion compatible with 4145305® surgical positioning fixtures featuring a secure hook-and-loop (velcro) attachment system is engineered for operating suites during procedures requiring uncompromised patient stabilization. Tailored to fit the precise mechanical plate dimensions of this specialized operating table accessory, this medical pad delivers a stable, firm, and protective contact interface essential for securing patient posture during orthopedic, spinal, thoracic, and urological surgery.
Rigid lateral stabilization is essential for preventing unintentional body rotation, shifting, or tilting, particularly during procedures performed in strict lateral decubitus or under steep operating table angles. Equipped with a heavy-duty hook-and-loop mounting interface, this cushion installs instantly and remains firmly anchored to the metallic or composite support bracket, preventing slippage or migration during patient repositioning and surgical manipulations. Bracing firmly against the flank, iliac crest, or ribcage, it absorbs continuous counter-pressures without bottoming out, preserving dependable surgical reference planes throughout the operative procedure.

The medical foam padding is engineered to distribute heavy contact forces evenly across the targeted anatomical contact area, protecting vulnerable bony prominences along the pelvis and thoracic wall. It eliminates concentrated focal pressure spikes and completely isolates the patient from the rigid framework of the 4145305® support brace. This effective cushioning actively protects against shear injuries, deep bruising, and intraoperative pressure necrosis during lengthy surgical cases under general or regional 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, while the hook-and-loop backing enables rapid changeover between cases.
