Lateral Medical understands optimal anaesthesia patient positioning aims to provide maximum surgical access while minimising risks like nerve injury, pressure sores, and cardiovascular instability, requiring careful planning and padding.
Key positions—supine, lateral, prone, and lithotomy—must be secured, with special attention to protecting joints, avoiding over-stretching nerves (e.g., brachial plexus, peroneal), and maintaining, neutral spine alignment along with optimum airway alignment.
We are excited to bring our clinician designed solutions to surgeons and anaesthetists across Australia.
