Product Overview

The PURIST Orthopedic Leg Positioner is designed to boost efficiency and surgeon control throughout direct anterior Total Hip Replacement (THR) procedure. It enables all essential leg movements for direct anterior THR in a condensed and efficient manner.

How PURIST Orthopedic Leg Positioner works

The PURIST Orthopedic Leg Positioner streamlines procedures, supports repeatability, and frees the hands of the surgical team. It is fixed on a mobile base with large casters that make mobility effortless and grants the flexibility to pair with any general surgical table.

Why PURIST Orthopedic Leg Positioner?

It is built to perform independent DA THR movements on a graduated scale - and its enhanced design allows the surgeon to control traction and rotation intra-operatively with precision and without help from non-sterile personnel. Its quick setup, staff-friendly operation, and small footprint make the PURIST popular with busy OR teams. Combine the PURIST with any standard OR table to build a superior leg positioning system.

A dedicated orthopedic table is typically expensive, bulky and tends to be challenging to move about the OR and even into storage. The PURIST Orthopedic Leg Positioner offers meticulous positioning capabilities such as independent traction, rotation, extension, and ab/adduction controls, with a smaller footprint making storage simple.

It is fixed on a mobile base with large casters that make mobility effortless. Easy to store, generally low maintenance, and grants the Customer the flexibility to pair with any general surgical table.
