TrenMAX®: A Stronger, Safer Alternative to Foam-Based Positioning Pads for Trendelenburg & Reverse Trendelenburg Robotic Bariatric Surgeries

TrenMAX® eliminates time-consuming effort by surgeon and OR staff to stop and reposition a patient or robot during surgery; also inhibits surgical complications caused by patient movement

The TrenMAX® from Innovative Medical Products is a new, safer, more secure positioning system that provides surgeons and OR staff a superior alternative to all-foam solutions when positioning patients for Trendelenburg bariatric, surgical procedures. Because it has more than twice the coefficient of friction than memory-foam positioners, TrenMAX® provides the most secure positioning system available for most any size patient, in either a head-down or feet-down direction, and at any angle. This means patient movement no longer has to be expected as a “normal” problem that routinely comes with Trendelenburg positioning, even with bariatric patients.

Innovative Medical Products to Exhibit Extensive Portfolio of Patient Positioners for Knee, Hip, Sports Medicine, and Robotic Surgeries at 2017 AAOS Annual Meeting in San Diego

Innovative Medical Products’ New Gel-Infused Memory Foam Pads Provide Superior Benefits Not Possible With Standard Foam Pads

Improves patient protection during surgery while reducing the possibility of pressure ulcers

Innovative Medical Products’ new Gel-Infused Memory Foam Pads offer two important benefits that are far superior to foam-alone solutions. Unique in the industry and available only through Innovative Medical Products, the IMP pads are infused with proprietary formulated gel beads that provide 30% greater load distribution than standard memory foam pads, as demonstrated by independent pressure mapping tests. This greater load distribution reduces the possibility of pressure ulcers.

Innovative Medical Products’ latex-free SLIMLINE™ convoluted foam Hip Abduction Pillow provides greater patient comfort and easier nursing care than standard abduction pillows. The SLIMLINE™ pillows measure 7.5” x 25” x 4” and come vacuum-packed, four to a case.

Innovative Medical Products and The Center for Education, Simulation and Innovation at Hartford Hospital (CESI) Form Cooperative Relationship To Bring Added Value To Each Party

Innovative Medical Products and The Center for Education, Simulation and Innovation at Hartford Hospital (CESI) have entered a cooperative relationship to share the latest ideas and technologies that support simulation-based surgical training including the development of patient positioning solutions that promote patient safety and improve patient outcomes.

Tri-Pull™ Secure Shoulder Solution Provides Surgeons Maximum Rotation Control in Shoulder Surgeries

Three systems work together to secure, distract, and control rotation of the shoulder precisely how the surgeon wants it

The Tri-Pull™ Secure Shoulder Solution, from Innovative Medical Products, employs three proven systems to confidently secure, distract and control precise rotation of the shoulder during surgical procedures. IMP’s Tri-Pull™ solution includes the Reznik Universal Shoulder Positioner™, De Mayo RoTractor®, and the Phase 4 Gel™ Splint.

New Gel-Infused Memory Foam Base Pad for Innovative Medical Products’ MorphBoard® Modular Peg Board System Significantly Improves Patient Safety

Innovative Medical Products’ new Gel-Infused Memory Foam Base Pad for IMP’s MorphBoard® modular peg board system significantly improves patient safety, especially involving bariatric patients.

Innovative Medical Products’ Clip-On™ Pads for Use with De Mayo Hip Positioner® and Universal Lateral Positioner® Are a Better Fit for Increased Patient Protection

Innovative Medical Products’ Clip-On™ patient protective pads, made to work specifically with the De Mayo Hip Positioner® and IMP’s Universal Lateral Positioner® (ULP), provide important advantages over traditional pads in ensuring patient protection and easier handling by OR staff:

Innovative Medical Products’ Locking Peg Assures Complete Positioning Stability During Hip Surgery

The most stable peg construct in the industry, IMP’s Expand-A-Peg™ Locking Peg eliminates peg ‘wobble’ and prevents peg from dislodging from pegboard during surgery

Setting the ‘gold safety standard’ in pegboard positioning, Innovative Medical Products’ Expand-A-Peg™ Locking Peg eliminates intra-operative peg motion and disengagement, keeping patients securely in place for the entire surgical procedure.

Humbles LapWrap® Positioning Pad Provides More Security for the Patient and Greater Versatility for the Surgical Team

Easy-to-use positioning pad not only secures patients’ arms during surgery but also allows access for IV tubes and leads for anesthesia

The Humbles LapWrap® Positioning Pad, from Innovative Medical Products, secures patients’ arms by their sides during surgery. The LapWrap® helps prevent shoulder injuries by not allowing a patient’s arm to fall from the side of the operating table. It also protects neurological structures by preventing hyperextension of the elbow. The easy-to-use, soft-foam pad not only positions patients’ arms but also allows access for IV tubes and leads for anesthesia. In fact, the LapWrap® was initially designed by an anesthesiologist for the anesthesia provider.
