The Gold Standard in OR Patient Positioning — Trusted by Veterinary Surgeons for Over 25 Years
Designed by a Board-Certified Anesthesiologist. Used by Board-Certified Orthopedic Surgeons. Proven in surgical and dental environments worldwide.
Still Wrestling With Outdated Positioning Gear?
Every minute your team spends fumbling with inadequate positioners costs you money — and puts your patients at risk.
Antiquated positioning devices lead to:
- Unstable patient positioning - causes dangerous intraoperative shifts
- Poor surgical exposure - longer, more difficult procedures
- Pressure sores - hard, inflexible surfaces during long cases
- Slow turnover times - eat into your daily case volume
- Overworked staff - spending time on avoidable positioning corrections
Why HUG-U-VAC? Because Every Second in the OR Counts.
HUG-U-VAC positioners are vacuum-moldable and conform quickly and precisely to each patient's unique anatomy — locking them safely in position with 3 simple steps.
The result:
- Less time positioning
- Less time correcting
- Better surgical outcomes
