Optimal comfort and safety in surgery: the 1003.7400 cushion from Maquet
The 1003.7400 cushion, designed by Maquet (Getinge Group), is an essential component for ensuring ergonomic, stable and secure patient positioning on the operating table. Designed to meet the rigorous requirements of surgical environments, this cushion is specially adapted for use in conjunction with lateral fixation accessories such as body supports, articulated arms and ball joint fixations. Thanks to its careful design and high-density foam material, the 1003.7400 cushion not only ensures excellent pressure distribution but also helps prevent skin or neurological damage, particularly during prolonged procedures.
This cushion is particularly useful for procedures requiring lateral or semi-lateral positioning, or to secure specific areas of the body such as the back, buttocks or flanks. Its ability to adapt to different devices makes it highly versatile for use in surgical disciplines ranging from orthopaedics to neurosurgery and visceral surgery. In terms of hygiene, the 1003.7400 cushion complies with strict hospital standards thanks to its easily washable surface. It can be combined with fixing arms or swivel supports, often mounted on standard operating table rails.
Its compatibility with accessories such as the 1002.40A0 articulated arm or the 1002.19C0 support allows surgical teams to configure the ideal position for each patient while reducing fatigue for the medical team. Although seemingly simple in design, this product is part of a continuous effort to improve operating safety and patient comfort. By providing a flexible yet stable base for mounting elements, it limits excessive pressure points while keeping devices in a firm and stable position.
The 1003.7400 cushion is much more than just a cushion: it is an essential component of the operating table infrastructure, ensuring the safety, comfort and precision that are essential for the smooth running of surgical procedures.
