Reduce HAPI Risk and Maximize Patient Safety in the Lateral Decubitus Position

New Layers of HAPI Protection


  • Help prevent Hospital-Acquired Pressure Injuries (HAPIs)
  • Maximize immersion, envelopment, softness, breathability, as well as positioning security with PinkProtect
  • An ultra-supportive pressure management core distributes pressure over the most challenging positioning surfaces

Innovative Designs Improve Patient Safety


Unique, high-density Peg Covers feature a supportive, seamless design that optimally balances HAPI-reducing characteristics as well as pressure-distribution.

Lateral Positioning Solutions for a Range of Surgical Procedures

Pink Pegboard Kits Provide Safe, Stable Support for Patients in the Lateral Decubitus Position


Orthopedic

Orthopedic


Orthopedic procedures often require precise limb control and rigid stabilization for safe surgical access. Pink Pegboard Kits support consistent lateral positioning, secure extremity management, and improved visualization during shoulder, hip, and fracture-related cases.

Common Procedures:
  • Hip replacement
  • Shoulder arthroplasty
  • ORIF (Open Reduction and Internal Fixation)

Patient Callouts

Simple, Safe Solutions that Help Patient Safety Advocates Meet

AORN
Guidelines & Recommendations

Official AORN Guidelines Recommend


  • “A patient in the lateral position is at risk for injury from pressure on vulnerable points on the dependent side.” Section 10.0 - Positioning the Patient
  • “During prolonged surgery in the lateral position, the patient can experience local muscle compression with ischemia and subsequent reperfusion injury leading to compartment syndrome or rhabdomyolysis.” Section 10.1 - Positioning the Patient

Proven Pressure Management

In a study of 15 subjects ranging from 16-54 BMI (average BMI 35.5), the Pink Pad provided an average peak pressure reduction of 43%.

US Government Data1.2 show Hospital-Acquired Pressure Injuries (HAPIs):
  • Are the direct cause of death for roughly 60,000 patients each year
  • Add an estimated $43,180 in costs per hospital stay
  • Result in more than 17,000 medical lawsuits, annually (the second most common claim after wrongful death)
  • Increase hospital stays by nine days on average

Images shown are of the same 30.85 BMI subject, on a solid surface, with and without the Pink Pad. Tests were conducted with an Xsensor Sensor Pad Model PX 100:48.144.02

Unlock Time Savings


  • Setup time: less than 1 minute
  • Eliminate the need for custom, off-label positioning components
  • Reduce setup time, cost, and eliminate cross-contamination risks

Clinical Best Practices


Provide a consistent, safe standard of care for every patient, in every procedure, every time.

Innovative, yet supportive materials offer protection against HAPIs, regardless of patient weight or BMI. Pink Peg Board Kits can be tailored to the unique needs of your surgical specialty.

Leading Clinical Evidence

  • “Postoperative erythema was significantly less common on the Pink Pad…” P.2
  • “There was significantly less pain in the Pink Pad group versus the gel-pad group.” P.2
