Surgical Head and Neck Positioners

The head and neck are among the most critical areas to support and protect in the O.R.

From supine to prone to lateral, Action® gel pads for surgical positioning conform to the patient’s unique anatomy, supporting pressure injury prevention while giving surgical teams the stability and access they need.

  • Supine Head Pad: Features a dual-layer foam and polymer construction, with a supportive foam base and 6″ circular cutout positioned beneath a soft, flexible polymer pad to cradle the occiput.
  • Ophthalmic Cradle Headrests: A supine head positioner with unique contours that offers broad neck support while positioning the head in an oval center dish to reduce pressure and improve stability.
  • Prone Headrests: A prone headrest for surgery. Designed to support the patient’s head in a straight, neutral position during prone procedures.
  • Head Pads with Center Dish: A moderately dished head positioner for lateral position. Reduces pressure on the side of the patient’s face and ear.
  • Contoured Head Pad: The contoured design provides stability of the patient’s head while in the supine position, making it a reliable head positioner for surgery across a range of specialties.
