Why choose this cushion ?
This teardrop-shaped pubic positioning cushion measuring 136 x 108 mm features wrap-around upholstered flaps and is engineered for surgical suites to equip anterior pelvic positioning brackets on operating tables. Designed to match the specific geometry of pelvic clamping supports used in orthopedic and trauma surgery, this pad provides a stable, firm, and protective contact interface essential for patient immobilization in strict lateral decubitus.
During total hip arthroplasty, revision surgery, and pelvic osteotomies, rigid pelvic immobilization is essential for accurate acetabular component alignment. With its contoured teardrop design, this cushion conforms precisely to the anatomical profile of the pubic and groin area, providing uniform support without encroaching on the hip flexion fold or hindering surgical access. The extended wrap-around flaps encase the perimeter of the bracket plate, preventing direct skin contact with rigid hardware and sharp metal edges.
The internal foam padding is engineered to absorb heavy anterior clamping loads without bottoming out or shifting. It eliminates localized pressure spikes over the delicate pubic symphysis while locking the pelvis against anterior rotational forces during acetabular reaming and joint reduction maneuvers. This effective cushioning actively protects against shear trauma, deep bruising, and intraoperative tissue damage during lengthy surgical cases under general or spinal anesthesia.
The protective outer coating strictly complies with hospital infection control standards. Fully waterproof and impermeable to blood, bodily fluids, irrigation liquids, and surgical skin preparation antiseptics, its smooth surface prevents fluid penetration. The cushion is quickly cleaned and decontaminated between surgical procedures using standard hospital-approved surface disinfectant wipes or sprays.
