Cushion for 4600.572T© or 1002.97A0© pubic support fixtures

This upholstered positioning cushion with wrap-around flaps and extra-firm foam compatible with 4600.572T© and 1002.97A0© surgical pubic supports is engineered for operating suites during orthopedic procedures requiring unyielding pelvic rigidity. Tailored in medical-grade upholstery to fully encase the mounting plate of these specialized operating table positioners, this protective pad combines structural firmness with enveloping coverage, essential for securing patient stability in the lateral decubitus position.
During total hip arthroplasty, complex revision procedures, and pelvic osteotomies, absolute pelvic immobilization is critical for accurate acetabular component alignment and reproducible bone preparation. Formulated with extra-firm medical foam, this cushion delivers superior compression resistance. Positioned firmly against the pubic symphysis, it prevents deformation under severe intraoperative mechanical loads produced during hip dislocation, vigorous acetabular reaming, and prosthetic impaction. Its wrap-around side flaps encase the hard perimeter and metallic edges of the mounting bracket, preventing direct patient contact with rigid hardware.

This configuration effectively protects superficial soft tissues and bony landmarks against pinching, shear forces, and cutaneous abrasions under heavy anterior clamping pressure. It actively mitigates the risk of deep hematomas, pressure necrosis, and intraoperative tissue trauma during extended 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.
