Legholder RX®
Standard
The best-selling version of our leg positioners in the past, the LegholderRX® standard now features a more stable construction, optimized padding with side knobs and Velcro straps with marked pull tabs.
Legholder RX®
Fusion
The new improved “fusion” edition of our LegholderRX® standard features special hemispherical knobs on the side of the stirrups to allow easier sliding of the drapes between the stirrups and to prevent the foot from slipping out sideways. The increased height between stirrups ensures enhanced stability.
Legholder RX®
Extra stable
Very stable positioning thanks to biometrically calculated and ergonomic flat contact surfaces, increased height and recess for the Achilles tendon on the 2nd and 3rd brackets (dotted line).
*Each product is delivered with long or short Velcro straps.
Types of surgeries that can be performed with LegholderRX®
The Legholder RX® provides stable positioning of the foot and the leg, allowing surgery in six different knee – joint flexion positions without support in the poplitea. Fixation is performed directly by Velcro straps around the OR table before prepping.
This way of positioning in combination with a lateral thigh post is very helpful in open knee surgeries such as arthroplasties, osteotomies, cartilage reconstruction and patellar surgery.
Motion at the ankle joint is free. The malleoli and the center of the ankle joint are easily palpable, thus facilitating axial alignment.
NEW IMPROVED VELCRO STRAPS
Available in two lenghts
The Velcro straps have a practical locking bar and visual directions on the pull tab to depict correct use.
SHORT VELCRO STRAPS
Ideally used to fasten the LegholderRX® only around the one leg section on the operation side. This enables free movement of the leg section.
LONG VELCRO STRAPS
Can be used over one leg section as well as over both leg sections.
