Cushion 120 x 90 mm for TAB 273© or TAB 313© pubic supports

This 120 x 90 mm positioning cushion is engineered for surgical suites to fit straight pubic supports of type TAB 273© as well as articulated pubic models of type TAB 313©. Designed to match the mounting surface of these specialized operating table positioning fixtures, this reduced-format medical pad delivers a firm, stable, and protective contact interface during orthopedic, reconstructive, and trauma procedures performed in the lateral decubitus position.
During total hip arthroplasty and pelvic osteotomies, rigid pelvic immobilization is essential for accurate acetabular component alignment and reproducible bone preparation. With its small 12 x 9 cm footprint, this cushion is particularly suited for slender, low-BMI, or pediatric patients. It focuses stabilizing support directly over the pubic symphysis while significantly maximizing surgical clearance around the incision. It withstands anterior clamping loads without tilting or displacement, effectively preventing forward rotation of the pelvis against the torsional forces of hip dislocation, acetabular reaming, and reduction maneuvers.

The medical foam padding dissipates heavy pelvic clamping pressures evenly across the targeted contact area, protecting the prominent bony and soft-tissue structures of the pubic region. It eliminates concentrated focal pressure spikes and isolates the patient from the rigid metallic framework of the support bracket. This effective cushioning mitigates the risk of intraoperative pressure necrosis, bruising, and cutaneous trauma 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.
