The BoneFoam Shark offers a unique positioner to stabilize the patient's arm and torso in the lateral decubitus position. In addition to offering arm support, the Shark prevents the patient from rolling anteriorly and provides easy access to IV lines and other anesthesia leads.
Lateral Positioning Challenges
While the lateral position is necessary and useful for several surgeries and several procedures, it can be associated with injuries to the shoulder and brachial plexus. It is helpful to support the upper shoulder and arm in a neutral position to reduce the risk of injury.
Support & Maintain Neutral Shoulder Alignment.
The BoneFoam Lateral Decubitus Arm & Torso stabilizer is not an operative surface – it is designed to support the torso in the lateral position, maintain neutral shoulder alignment and safely position the upper extremities while operating on the torso or lower extremities.
A highly functional two-piece design.
The two-piece design allows for the patient to be intubated in the supine position and then rolled into the lateral position placing the upper arm onto the memory foam top. This is to protect the neurovascular bundles of the shoulder while maintaining access to the down arm.
