The Action® Orthopedics Hip Positioner was originally commissioned by Dr. William Hozack of the renowned Rothman Institute Orthopaedics in Philadelphia, PA for use during total hip replacements. Designed to complement the Anterior Supine Approach to THR, this unique positioner, often called a "bump", was engineered to provide consistent, optimal site access and patient stability while protecting the patients skin integrity. Our soft Akton® polymer encases a rigid foam core to create a critical frame-like stability while simultaneously redistributing pressure and shear forces that can damage the sacral tissue. - Improves patient safety by redistributing pressure and minimizing shear - Eliminate use of potentially harmful makeshift items such as rolled/ taped blankets, towels, IV bags, etc. - Weighted platform provides rigid, secure base required during reaming - Reusable and durable, easy to clean - Physician preferred item SIZE: 16"x8.5"x2.63" (40.64 x 21.56 x 6.68 cm)
