Hi I am trying to find solution that are sustainable for the Trendelenburg Patient Safety Positioning System. What do you use in your Hospital? Mine at the moment uses the Pink Pad. Thank you for your help.
I am also not sure how the Pink Pad has become so common. It used to be that straps were used. Some places use a sticky white sheet. I think the pink pad came in for robotic surgery where steeper head down is used but now it seems to be used in laparoscopic cases too. It's a real waste and must cost a lot of money too. I wonder if there's any evidence if patients fall off the table less with the pink pad?
