Smith & Nephew
Hip Positioning System

This Hip Positioning System allows surgeons to access and treat the hip joint using arthroscopic techniques. The hip joint is notoriously difficult to access during arthroscopic procedures when using standard and cumbersome fracture tables. Smith & Nephew’s Hip Positioning System, which attaches to most standard operating room tables, is designed to gently and slightly separate the joint, creating space for the surgeon to work. The system’s flexibility and cost make it a simple and convenient option for outpatient surgery centers looking to grow their hip arthroscopy practices as well.
