About the DRE Pneumatic Assist Stirrups
These pneumatic stirrups use power-assisted positioning to reduce nerve pressure during lithotomy procedures, unlike manual stirrups that rely on staff strength and guesswork. Protection wings actively shield the peroneal nerves and calves while boots automatically conform to each patient’s leg contours.
The pneumatic system maintains sterile repositioning throughout procedures without breaking the surgical field. Positioning angles display clearly on integrated meters, and the multi-directional adjustment expands operative access for complex cases. Worth noting: the automatic pressure redistribution across the gastrocnemius muscle reduces post-operative numbness complaints.
Full leg wrapping eliminates pressure points from ankle to calf. The system handles patients up to 396 pounds while maintaining precise control.
