Lithotomy Position Gel Pads: Protecting Patients During Prolonged Surgeries
Lithotomy position gel pads are important accessories that are widely used in the operating theater to improve Patient safety and comfort while performing the lithotomy position. This position is often used in gynecologic, urologic, and colon-rectal operations and in the discussions, the patient is positioned on the back with the feet standing on the stirrups. Although this positioning is beneficial to the surgeons since it gives easy access to the area of interest, the patients undergo various pressure effects on the body, which in turn may result in various complications like nerve injury, pressure sore and circulatory disorder.
