Fracture Table Post Pads Series 3105 – Perineal Pressure Protection
The Fracture Table Post Pads Series 3105 are designed to provide cushioning and protection around the perineal area during procedures using a fracture table. The pad is designed to help reduce the risk of compression injury caused by pressure between the patient and the fracture table post.
The 3105 provides a protective padded interface between the patient and the table post, supporting appropriate patient positioning while helping manage pressure around this sensitive anatomical area.
Key Features
- Designed for use with fracture tables
- Helps protect the perineal area
- Designed to help reduce compression injury
- Provides cushioning between the patient and fracture table post
- Compact design for targeted protection
- Suitable for surgical patient positioning
- Suitable for orthopaedic and trauma procedures
- Designed for use in professional healthcare environments
Fracture Table Positioning
A fracture table is commonly used during certain orthopaedic and trauma procedures, particularly procedures involving the hip and femur. The patient is positioned using the table’s supports and traction equipment to provide access to the surgical area.
The perineal area can be exposed to pressure from the table’s post during positioning. Appropriate padding can help provide a protective barrier between the patient and the supporting equipment.
The Fracture Table Post Pad Series 3105 is specifically designed for this application.
Perineal Protection
The perineum is a sensitive anatomical area located between the external genitalia and anus. During fracture table positioning, pressure around this area requires careful consideration.
The Series 3105 provides cushioning designed to help reduce direct compression between the patient’s perineal area and the fracture table post.
Appropriate patient positioning and pressure management should always be assessed by qualified healthcare professionals according to the patient’s individual requirements and the surgical procedure.

Suitable Surgical Applications
Fracture table positioning is commonly associated with procedures where controlled positioning and traction are required. The Fracture Table Post Pads Series 3105 can be incorporated into appropriate positioning protocols where a fracture table post is used.
Potential applications may include relevant:
- Orthopaedic procedures
- Trauma surgery
- Hip procedures
- Femur procedures
- Fracture procedures
- Lower limb surgery
The specific positioning equipment required will depend on the surgical procedure and the patient’s individual needs.
Pressure and Compression Protection
The primary purpose of the Fracture Table Post Pads Series 3105 is to help avoid compression injury to the perineal area.
The pad provides cushioning at the contact point between the patient and fracture table post. This can form part of an overall pressure management strategy during procedures where the patient remains positioned on a fracture table.
The pad should be used according to the manufacturer’s instructions and the healthcare facility’s applicable patient positioning procedures.
