What peers are saying
We would recommend this device to any surgical team that uses steep Trendelenburg positioning as part of their patient positioning. The system is safe, even the largest of patients do not slide. From a staff perspective it is very easy to set up and work with. The product is cost effective and frankly, it is one of the best products we have used in our clinical areas.
