Why choose The RAMP?
Full knee extension
The raised position of the distal footrest facilitates full knee extension.
Pressure point protection
The soft, rounded distal side provides comfort around the Achilles tendon.
Hyperflexion position
The patient’s foot can rest in a dedicated area to stabilise the hyperflexed position.
Flexible attachment
The mounting slots and Velcro straps allow adaptable attachment.
Flat support surface
The firm, flat surface ensures stable positioning of the sole of the foot.
Clinical applications
Improved surgical ergonomics
Elevating the knee in full extension limits variations in the height of the surgical field.
Full extension with improved access
The raised-foot design facilitates full extension, particularly for patients with larger thighs.
Hands-free stability
Use with a lateral support and positioning block helps stabilise the leg in the different positions.
Simple installation
The device attaches rapidly to a standard operating table using two Velcro straps.
Optimised draping
Draping between the footrests facilitates heel positioning in every position.
Quick and easy installation
