Defeat Feet Injuries With This Device
Protect patients from one of the most common pressure
injuries with ProForm Heel Protectors from SANDEL. The
anatomical design improves weight and pressure distribution,
delivering enhanced relief. An opening under the heel keeps air
circulating. Support under the Achilles tendon reduces leg
rotation while support around the longitudinal arch helps stop
foot drop. Made from a resilient foam, the Heel Protectors are
disposable, reducing cross-contamination risk. Request a
sample!

Don't Operate on Obese Patients Without This
Intubate obese patients more quickly and reliably with the Troop
Elevation Pillow from CR Enterprises. Designed and developed
by an anesthesiologist, it helps achieve head-elevated
laryngoscopy position for optimal airway management. Use
Troop to improve intubation time and avoid cancelled cases due
to failed intubation. The two-piece set, which includes a head
cradle and base unit elevation pillow, is designed for most
patients up to 450 lbs. The three-piece set includes an addition
to support patients over 450 lbs. or with BMI > 50. Choose from
reusable vinyl or single-use foam designs.

This System Holds Trendelenburg Patients
Tight
Prevent accidents during Trendelenburg with TrenGuard
patient restraint systems from D.A. Surgical. They work all the
way to 40 degrees. The TrenGuard 450 holds patients
weighing up to 450 lbs.; the TrenGuard 600 holds up to 550
lbs. The rigid support frame fixes to accessory table rails.
Attached to the frame are four adjustable stabilizing pillows that
anchor the patient to the table, and a cervical headrest that
prevents patients from slipping down. The frame can't move,
and neither can the patient. Set-up takes 15 seconds. Visit the
D.A. Surgical website to view a webinar on the Trendelenburg
position and earn one free contact hour!
