World’s first inflatable, disposable prone support for surgery in prone position. Surgeons and anesthetists in training are teached to avoid venous congestion and pressure on nerves, but proning is one of the most heavy position switches for nursing staff. By mirroring the human skeleton and variations in size, the IPS supports the rib cage and pelvis while allowing the soft tissue and abdomen to hang freely. This reduces the risk of bedsores, reduces Intra-Abdominal Pressure (IAP) and prevents venous congestion. The use of compressed air instead of manual labor is an ergonomic breakthrough in the OR.
Ergotrics was founded in 2014 by Dr Paul Depauw, neurosurgeon. Ergotrics specializes in positioning and moving patients with compressed air in the healthcare sector. Ergotrics designs and manufactures inflatable positioning cushions that allow to lift and tilt patients quickly, easily, ergonomically, hygienically and safely. The first innovations are a breakthrough for the proning procedure and the prone position in neurosurgical operations. Further R&D will lead to innovations for home care and other hospital applications.
