Product Description
The Thornberry Large Patient Hip Positioner is used for stable positioning of a large patient during total hip and revision surgery. It is designed to attach directly to the operating table utilizing existing table clamps, or the Post Clamps (DSC-2595) which are not included.
The upper arm assembly can be adjusted for height. Both arms include a push-button to allow the pad platform to swivel and lock into any of three fixed positions. The tall 18″ post also includes a push-button to allow the post/arms unit to swivel and lock into any of three fixed positions.
The distance between the arms (centered) is 8.5″ minimum and 17.25″ maximum.
The complete unit is autoclavable except for the foam pads. The pads are made of semi-dense foam to help prevent pressure points and are sealed with a washable coating. The coating also helps to lessen the possibility of skin breakdown.
