Innovative Medical Products To Exhibit at 2012 AORN Congress

March 26, 2012 - PRLog -- PLAINVILLE, Conn. – Innovative Medical Products, a global leader in patient positioning, will be an exhibitor at the 59th annual AORN Congress in New Orleans, March 24-29. The company will display its full range of gel and positioning products at Booth #4009 in the Ernst N. Morial Convention Center:

TUFFease® gel pads, for preventing pressure ulcers, are made with a softer, more supple cover for added patient protection, and a more durable bottom surface less likely to be punctured or torn.

The new Humbles LapWrap® Positioning Pad provides more security for the patient and more versatility for the surgical team with its VELCRO® hook and loop material. IMP’S LapWrap® answers the concerns of the AORN Guidelines for protection of the neurological structures of the elbow when keeping arms close to the body.

The De Mayo Universal Distractor™, used in conjunction with the De Mayo Knee Positioner™, is a sterile external device that allows the surgeon to independently control the distracting of the knee joint.

IMP’s easy-to-handle sterilization cases not only meet and exceed the weight standards of new hospital guidelines but are also conveniently stackable, saving on storage space. Designed to accommodate IMP’s De Mayo Knee Positioner® and De Mayo Universal Distractor™, the new cases weigh under 22 lbs.

The De Mayo Hip Positioner® eliminates lifting an obese patient for lateral positioning. The system thus minimizes the risk of a work-related injury to the nursing and OR staff.

IMP’s MorphBoard® is a pegboard lateral positioning system designed to accommodate obese patients with a simple rotation of its centerboard module. For use with the pegboard is IMP’s Expand-a-Peg® Locking Peg that eliminates peg ‘wobble’ and positively prevents the peg from dislodging from the pegboard during surgery.

The sterile Phase 4 Gel™ Splint is a unique forearm traction splint for shoulder or elbow arthroscopy in the lateral position. It eliminates the need for an extra sterile barrier.
