Orthopedic Trauma Patient Positioning FAQs

What does the Trauma collection support?

Orthopedic trauma workflows that need stable positioning, clean operative access, and unobstructed imaging. That includes lower-extremity elevation, prone positioning, pelvic support, extremity holding, protection, and select post-op recovery.

Why is imaging access so important for trauma positioning?

Trauma cases lean heavily on intraoperative imaging to confirm alignment and fixation. A purpose-built positioner keeps the setup stable while leaving room for the C-arm and imaging workflow.

What products elevate the leg during trauma surgery?

The Ramp family handles leg elevation. PROP, Wedges, Knee Buddy, Leg Buddy, and Leg Buddy Heel Cut cover related intraoperative and post-op needs, each with its own intended use.

How do you position a limb for surgical prep?

The Limbo Extremity Holder is designed to position an extremity for foot or hand access during applicable surgical prep and procedural workflows.

Is there a hands-free limb holder for the OR?

Yes. The Limbo Extremity Holder is a stand-alone positioner that supports an extremity during prep and procedural workflows without an assistant holding the limb. Check the eIFU for approved setup and intended use.

Are sterile bags available for trauma positioners?

Yes. Several products in the Ramp portfolio have matching single-use sterile bags. Confirm the correct size and pairing before ordering.
