OverviewThe horseshoe head cushion in positioning gel is designed to protect and support the patient’s head, neck and face during procedures performed in lateral or prone position. The gel provides excellent anatomical conformity and even pressure distribution in the operating room. The open horseshoe shape allows easy airway access, facilitating intubation and anesthetic procedures while maintaining stable head positioning. The flattened top increases contact area with the head, reducing pressure points compared with convex models. Thanks to the gel properties, this cushion effectively helps prevent prolonged pressure and improves patient comfort during the procedure. Dimensions of 90 × 40 × 20 mm make it suitable for operating room constraints. It integrates into a complete set of OR positioning accessories.
