Maquet 1004.84B0 knee positioning device – Precision, safety and comfort for orthopaedic surgical procedures
In orthopaedic surgery, stability, precision and patient comfort are crucial factors that influence the success of the procedure. The Maquet 1004.84B0 knee positioning device perfectly meets these requirements by offering a simple, robust and adaptable system designed to effectively maintain the lower limb during procedures targeting the knee joint. This device is particularly useful during arthroscopic procedures, meniscal or ligament repairs, and any surgery requiring stable immobilisation of the thigh.
Made from durable materials such as stainless steel and polycarbonate, the 1004.84B0 combines mechanical reliability with ergonomic design. The device is adjusted manually using a radial adjustment clamp, which allows for smooth adaptation to different thigh diameters. This flexibility of adjustment is essential for adapting to different patient morphologies and ensuring optimal anatomical positioning.
The thigh is held in place by an integrated safety strap, combined with an extra-soft gel pad that distributes pressure evenly. This system limits the risk of skin damage or excessive compression, while ensuring that the limb is securely fixed in place. This makes it possible to stabilise the knee firmly while avoiding any unnecessary discomfort for the patient.
The 1004.84B0 is easily mounted on a standard operating table side rail, allowing for quick integration into the operating environment. It is also equipped with a circular clamp compatible with European standards, further simplifying installation. Thanks to its modular design, it can be used alone or in combination with other Maquet accessories, such as the arthroscopic leg support (ref. 1008.14C0), which expands its range of uses in the operating theatre.
This device is also designed with hygiene and easy maintenance in mind. Its light weight (1.8 kg without clamp) and compact dimensions make it easy to store and handle.
With a maximum load capacity of 227 kg, the 1004.84B0 is suitable for a wide range of patients and guarantees optimal safety throughout the surgical procedure. Its design combines robustness, ergonomics and compatibility, making it the preferred choice for surgeons and demanding surgical teams looking for precise knee positioning.
