Bevelled and centre-hollowed headrest cushion type Awigs/Viwas©

The Awigs/Viwas© type headrest cushion is a specialised cephalic positioning solution specifically designed to fit the Awigs/Viwas© headrest of Maquet® operating tables. Two distinctive technical features set it apart from standard headrest cushions: its bevelled profile, which ensures a gradual anatomical transition between the cephalic support surface and the adjacent table segment, and its central hollow, designed to locally relieve the most sensitive support areas of the cranial region by eliminating direct contact at the central pressure point.
Developed by @bloc, a French specialist in patient positioning in the operating room with over 10 years of expertise, this cushion addresses the specific needs of the surgical positions for which the Awigs/Viwas© headrest is used. The central hollow plays an essential clinical role: by eliminating pressure at the most exposed area of the occipital or cranial region, it significantly reduces the risk of skin injuries caused by prolonged compression, while maintaining stable and even peripheral support around the relieved zone.

The bevelled profile complements this by ensuring progressive continuity of the support surface, preventing any discontinuity that could generate pressure points at the junctions between table segments.
Manufactured in France in accordance with the quality and hygiene standards of the medical environment, this cushion features a cover designed to withstand the disinfection protocols used in healthcare facilities, making daily maintenance straightforward for clinical teams.
This cushion is part of @bloc's comprehensive range of operating table cushions, available to healthcare facilities around the world.
