Pediatric Surgical Positioners

Pediatric surgical patients face unique physiological risks, including immature skin layers and higher metabolic rates. Action® pediatric and neonatal surgical positioners are engineered to help protect even the most fragile neonatal skin.

  • Pediatric Chest Rolls: Available in eight sizes for smaller patient populations, including neonatal chest rolls. Visit our adult Chest Rolls for six additional sizes.
  • Pediatric Patient Positioners: safely position pediatric surgical patients without rolling washcloths or other make-shift items.
  • Pediatric and neonatal donuts and Head pads: Designed to protect and cradle the patient’s smaller head.
  • Pediatric Ulnar Nerve Protector: helps to protect the pediatric patient’s ulnar nerve while providing greater visibility and access for IV or A-line for anesthesiologists.

Featuring our proprietary ultrasoft Akton® polymer, Action® pediatric patient positioning solutions prioritize pressure distribution and shear reduction without compromising the delicate microclimate of the pediatric patient. Our AKTON polymer pediatric surgical positioners are engineered with a softer durometer to provide immersion and protection for neonatal and pediatric patients.

The ultrasoft polymer combined with the soft, flexible surface of our pads allows the product to move with the patient, reducing negative effects of shear on fragile skin. In addition, Akton® polymer distributes weight and dissipates heat; lowering the risk of high-pressure points and hot spot development that can lead to pressure injuries. These combined benefits enhance patient protection.
