Joint and Sports Surgery Positioning FAQs

What surgeries need patient positioning for joints and sports injuries?

Joint replacement and sports medicine procedures (hips, knees, shoulders, and related orthopedic workflows) depend on stable, repeatable positioning. BoneFoam's Joints & Sports collection focuses on direct anterior hip, knee rehab, and non-operative extremity protection.

What positioning products are used for hip and knee surgery?

The Hippy Direct Anterior Hip Positioning System and Zero Degree Knee anchor BoneFoam's Joints and Sports solutions. Guardian protection solutions (Arm Guard, Head Guard, Leg Guard, and Tray Topper) support disposable patient protection on the operative side.

Can I do a direct anterior hip on a standard OR table with Hippy?

Yes. Hippy is designed to stabilize the pelvis for anterior hip procedures on a standard OR table, so no specialized orthopedic table or attachment is required. Review the eIFU for approved setup and intended use.

What can I use to support my knee after surgery at home?

Zero Degree Knee and Knee Buddy. Both are designed to support positioning and therapy after a total knee replacement, ACL reconstruction, or arthroscopic knee surgery. Follow the recovery plan your surgeon or physical therapist gave you.

How do you protect the non-operative side during joint surgery?

Arm Guard, Head Guard, Leg Guard, and Tray Topper are designed to position or protect the non-operative side while keeping the operative side accessible.

Hippy vs. Zero Degree Knee: what's the difference?

They solve different problems. Hippy is an intraoperative positioner that stabilizes the pelvis for anterior hip procedures on a standard OR table. Zero Degree Knee is a post-op rehab product used at home or in clinic to support knee extension and flexion after surgery.
