Hip Distraction System

Today, I'm here to present to you the features and benefits of the Arthrex Hip Distraction System, the most advanced supine positioning table attachment available on the market. The Arthrex Hip Distraction system will attach via Clark rails through these Clark rail adapters on each side of the table. The Well-padded patient platform attaches to those adapters, and there's a cutout on the operative side to allow the C-arm to always get a nice shot of the hip joint. The C-arm can be brought through the leg bars or on the non-operative side of the patient. Additionally, the perineal pad is a reusable memory foam chamfered, cut style oversize pad that comes in two different densities. There's also a disposable cover that comes just for hygiene purposes. The nonoperative and operative leg spars are made from aluminum and other lightweight metals with a carbon fiber shell. There's also a wheel system built into the gross traction carriage that allows the system to slide easily after multiple uses, and then lock to the carbon fiber frame via a rubber pad brake system. You'll find traction is controlled and titrated by this fine traction knob at the base of the teletrack carriage bar. The range of motion for your leg can be controlled via the levers and triggers at the end of the operative spas. Your abduction and adduction are controlled here by squeezing this trigger. Your flexion and extension are controlled by the undersurface lever via pulling down and counterclockwise to release it. To be able to flex and extend your hip joint and to lock it, you simply pull it out and down to lock the joint in place. The boot itself has a four strap system with pads on each of those straps. There's an outer shell construct with large handles, and you can detach the boot during the procedure to do your range of motion check. You simply lock the boot back to the teletrack carriage via this metal key and white tab on the bottom. The boot can be manipulated by unlocking this lever here on the inner portion of the spar, for your manipulation of the foot into external and internal rotation, as well as plantar flexion and dorsiflexion. Additionally, for your range of motion check, your perineal post and pad can be easily detached during the procedure to do a range of motion check after your cam decompression. Lastly, we offer the stabilizer leg that attaches to the patient platform in between your operative and nonoperative leg spar. This gives you extra stability to the whole system and makes it a little more rigid throughout the procedure.
