Purpose A new element in the preparation of the patient at the ADIC-OLVG is the use of an antistatic operation mattress under the patient's arm. It increases comfort and it offers adequate immobilization of the arm. The mattress is reusable.
Description

This consists of a latex bag, filled with small polystyrene grains which adapts to the form of the patient's arm and hand when resting on this mattress. By pulling the mattress vacuum it forms a comfortable cast of the patient's arm. This will immobilize the arm and provide optimal comfort.
