Short Featherweight Leg Section

The Short Featherweight Leg Section improves caregiver ergonomics and operating room (OR) workflow efficiency for surgical staff during many surgical procedures. Due to its length of 18 inches, there is no need to detach and reattach the compact surgical leg section during a procedure. The leg section can remain attached to the surgical table throughout the procedure.

How the Short Featherweight Leg Section Works

Weighing only 11-lbs., the Short Featherweight Leg Section improves OR efficiency and ergonomic working conditions for surgical staff and exceeds Association of periOperative Registered Nurses (AORN) weight guidelines for repeating lifting in the OR. With the surgical table leg section remaining attached during the procedure, surgical staff can articulate the leg section down to -105° and achieve low table height to accommodate a wide range of patient positioning options, surgeon heights, and seated procedures.

Why the Short Featherweight Leg Section?

The Short Featherweight Leg Section is ideal for orthopedic, gynecological and urological procedures.

Orthopedic Procedures:

• 18-inch length of this compact, surgical table leg section improves surgical site access and  surgeon ergonomics for knee arthroscopies and Beach Chair procedures such as shoulder arthroscopies and humerus  fractures
• Allows lower surgical table height down to 26 inches
• Improves ease of positioning throughout the  procedure
• Reduces need for handling of leg section during orthopedic procedures, offering time savings and reduced staff strain

Gynecology Procedures:

• Allows leg section to remain attached for  convenience during procedures such as Total or Laparoscopic Hysterectomy,  Hysteroscopy, Dilation and Curettage (D&C), and more
• Perineal Cutout allows unobstructed use of the weighted speculum
• Allows for attachment of a footboard as an instrument shelf for surgeon

Urology/Cystoscopy Procedures:
