Applications Of Medical Head Positioners In Urological Surgery

Correct and safe surgical positioning basically guarantees a successful surgery. A proper surgical positioning not only facilitates the smooth operation, but also effectively prevents the occurrence of complications caused by forced surgical positions. 90° lateral position is the most commonly position in urological surgery, but will cause many clinical complications due to restricted limb movement during surgery. Therefore, different sizes of medical head positioners are designed and manufactured according to the lateral position of surgical patients of different ages and weights, so as to reduce complications, make patient feel comfortable, and improve physician satisfaction. The traditional lateral positioner is placed through fixing a pelvic fixator to the patient’s pubic symphysis and sacrococcygeal region. If the pelvic fixator is fixed too tightly, the patient’s abdominal breathing will be weakened and the inferior vena cava return will be obstructed; if the pelvic fixator is fixed too loosely, it will easily cause the patient’s body to move and affect the exposure of the operative field. The modified foam slotted head positioners are designed to fit the patient’s body shape when lying on the side, so they can increase the stability of fixation, better expose the surgical field, prevent intraoperative displacement, and shorten the
