Accessories for Spine Surgery

Spinal surgery accessories are vital to patient safety and positioning in these delicate procedures. Medical conditions affecting the spine can cause severe back pain and immobility for patients and can radiate to other parts of the body. The most common types of back surgery include spinal fusion, laminectomy, and discectomy. Each of these procedures require the surgeon to position the patient differently on the operating table. Common positions for spine surgery include prone and face down, depending on which are of the vertebrae the surgeon will be working. Spinal surgical table accessories accommodate each of the positions for knee-chest, jackknife and kneeling.
