Spinal

Lateral Medical understands spinal surgery patient positioning requires precise, team-based techniques to optimize surgical access while preventing severe complications like nerve injury and pressure sores. Key positions include prone (face-down) for posterior approaches using specialized frames (Wilson, Andrews), lateral decubitus for side-access, or supine (back-down). Proper padding is critical to protect pressure points (eyes, ears, cheeks, knees) and maintain neutral spinal alignment.

We are excited to bring our clinician designed solutions to spinal surgeons and anaesthetists across Australia.

Cervical

Cervical spinal surgery requires precise patient positioning to ensure surgical access, protect neurovascular structures, and minimize risks like vision loss or nerve injury. Please find our range of innovative and practical solutions….

Lateral

Correct lateral patient positioning is fundamental to safe and effective spinal surgery. When a patient is properly supported in the lateral position, surgeons gain optimal access and visibility while pressure is evenly distributed to protect vulnerable nerves, joints, and soft tissue. Lateral Medical provides lateral positioning solutions so surgical teams can improve operative efficiency and patient safety…

Pelvic

Pelvic raising positioners elevate the pelvis during surgery to improve surgical access, enhance imaging (radiolucent), and reduce pressure. These devices are crucial for procedures like iliosacral screw placement, orthopaedic trauma, and gynecological surgeries, often improving stability and comfort. …

Prone

Prone spinal surgery typically utilises specialised operating table to maximise access, reduce abdominal pressure, and minimise blood loss. Key considerations include freeing the abdomen to reduce venous pressure, padding pressure points, and using lateral or single-position techniques for MIS procedures. Please find our range of innovative and practical solutions….

Spine Table Extensions

Spinal table extensions allow existing, standard operating tables to be converted into specialised spinal operating platforms, offering a cost-effective alternative to purchasing dedicated, standalone spine tables. These systems provide essential, radiolucent, and adjustable support for prone, supine, and lateral spine surgeries. Please find our range of innovative and practical solutions….
