Optimal Patient Positioning For Surgical Procedures

Our staff loves the Cervical Spine Retention System. It's easy to use, saves a lot of time, is comfortable for the patient, and does not irritate or damage their skin. This product helps us position the patient in the most optimal way possible while also ensuring a comfortable experience for the patient. The pain of capturing images we otherwise would not be able to capture without the Cervical Spine Retention System is relieved.

Thank you for coming by to help Dr. Giltner. We have had great success with your pannus retention system for deflection for tissue deflection and supporting our left arm cases. We will continue to use this product instead of using excessive tape.

The Pannus Retention System has changed the way we position our patients on the cath lab procedure table for a femoral access approach. We have used tape and straps in the past to move the patient’s pannus to visualize and clean the femoral area. The Retention system has made it so much more comfortable for the patient and easier for the staff to set up the patient for their procedure. It is versatile, easy to use, and can be repositioned quite easily without much difficulty. We love this product.

We originally brought in the PRS due to a needle stick. We had had a patient with a hanging Pannus that was taped up so we could access the femoral artery. Before the doctor was able to gain access, the tape let go and the patient’s pannus had to be manually held back. Our Cardiology Fellow who was starting the procedure attempted to hold back the pannus with one hand while anesthetizing the area with his other hand. He inadvertently pulled the needle out of the patient and stuck his hand that he was using to hold back the patient’s pannus. We tried the PRS and the staff and doctors all agreed that the PRS was a more secure and safer alternative to tape alone. In the months that we have been using it, we have seen that this system has increased safety for both patients and staff.

I just wanted to let you know how grateful we are that your company has brought the Pannus Retention System to the market. This has been a game changer for us and has allowed for easier access for our physicians. This device makes providing high quality care to our patients easier than ever. We also use your armboards with the lead shield covering and this helps protect our staff from extra radiation while maintaining high comfort levels for the patients. Reducing scatter radiation that our staff receive while in a case has been a number one quality metric that your device has exponentially helped us to succeed. Thanks for all of your hard work.

Our TAVR team loved the PRS. It was very easy to use and helped us out tremendously during the case with access. We have just started our TAVR program and use an Ioban drape from the neck to the knee. This set up is nice in case we run into issues we are prepared, but it made it very difficult with our larger patients to obtain percutaneous access. PRS solved those issues without compromising our sterility so we could continue to offer our patients the high quality care they deserve.
