ATTENUATE ARMS POSITIONERTM
For patients required to lay in a supine position with their arms positioned above their head, feeling comfortable is almost an impossibility. That is—until now.
This arm(s) positioner, called the “ATTENUATE ARMS POSITIONER," offers improvements over similar products. It's constructed of high density foam—soft, yet firm. A polyethylene material supports the base and maintains rigidity (with handle). Head and neck supports attach to the base for reproducible positioning.
Patients may be positioned with proper head support, arms extended above their head and placed onto the foam positioner. A slightly elevated angle allows the arms to rest, with an additional angle for the wrist area. Patients have a choice: to hold onto a soft "Grip Ring" or just relax.
This positioner is excellent for esophagus, chest, pancreas, ribs, and breast treatment technique. The patient can be set-up and treated in a fixed position throughout the treatment course. Excellent for oblique and lateral technique. It is also helpful for any treatment technique which requires the patient to have only one arm in the extended position.
Dimensions: 20" wide and 9.5" high
Can easily be placed into the opening of the Computed Tomography diagnostic unit. Dosimetry can benefit by confirming their patient treatment plan(s), and there is no metal component.
