Kneefix™
Home  :  Sinmed - Civco  :  Positioning of the Lower Abdomen and Extremities
  • The Sinmed Kneefix Cushion is a contribution towards better stability and reproducibility in supine position, regardless of the target area.
  • The wedge shape and concave leg position cause a flattening of the lumbar spine and reduce tension in the muscular system; hence, general positioning of the patient is accurate without the necessity of fixation.
  • The Sinmed Kneefix Cushion is made of lightweight, closed cell foam. It is easy to handle and may be disinfected with commonly used products, such as alcohol.
 
Kneefix™ Elevation Block
  • Add more flexibility to your Kneefix cushion by using elevation cushions.
  • The elevation cushion is made of the same material as the Kneefix and elevates the Kneefix with 5 cm.
  • The Kneefix fits in the topside of the elevation cushion and will not slide off.
  • The elevation cushions may also be stacked to raise the legs even higher with 5 cm steps.
 
  • The Kneefix is often used as a comfortable support for the feet and ankles when the patient is in prone position.
 
  • Flexible handles on each side of the Kneefix allow for easy handling and storage.
   
Low Kneefix™  
  • The Kneefix is a popular product that is widely used to provide patients a comfortable and stable treatment position.
  • The wedge shape and concave leg position cause a flattening of the lumbar spine and reduce tension in the muscular system; hence, general positioning of the patient is accurate without the necessity of fixation.
  • To provide excellent stability for smaller or less supple patients, Sinmed now has a Kneefix cushion that is 4 cm lower.
  • The base of this lower Kneefix cushion is identical to the standard version, allowing it to be used on the elevation blocks and Combifix system.
  • The low Kneefix cushion is made of lightweight polyethylene foam. It is easy to handle and may be disinfected with commonly used detergents.
  • To distinguish it from the standard red Kneefix, the low Kneefix is black.
