Universal SteriBump® from Innovative Medical Products Guarantees Sterility

March 26, 2012 - PRLog -- PLAINVILLE, Conn. – The Universal SteriBump® from Innovative Medical Products, an industry leader in patient positioning devices, provides guaranteed sterility at the surgical site, thus helping to reduce the possible occurrence of Healthcare Associated Infections (HAI).

Because the lint-free Universal SteriBump® positioner is designed for single use, there is no possibility of cross contamination. Its guaranteed sterility also frees up operating room scrub techs, nurses, or physician assistants from having to hold a limb during certain surgical procedures or having to bundle together sterile towels and other cloths to create a makeshift limb support, saving valuable OR and Sterile Processing Department’s time.

The Universal SteriBump’s® contour design cradles the patient’s extremities in the sterile field, providing more secure, elevated positioning. Its rectangular shape also lets OR personnel select multiple positioning heights or angles.

The sterile IMP foam support is ideal for shoulder abduction during lateral shoulder arthroscopy, incision closure of total hip or knee surgery, vascular surgery, extremity trauma, carpal tunnel and other procedures.
