Is the KanguruWeb® comfortable for the patient?
The KanguruWeb® has been tested on many patients suffering from various degrees of
obesity with excellent feedback on comfort. The Universal base unit has been designed to
be positioned directly under the patient with no requirement for additional padding. Some
patients even express a higher degree of comfort when the disposable web is secured and
the pannus is held firmly in place.
Can the base unit be used on a hospital bed?
The Universal base unit can be used on all hospital beds, gurneys, exam tables and operating tables.
If radiolucency is a requirement please refer to product #RB2500, specifically developed
for use in Cath/IR and EP labs.
Will using the KanguruWeb® system impact the patient's anatomy?
Using the KanguruWeb® renders the patient's anatomy more appropriate. When the
pannus is firmly retracted, it is easier to visualize the femoral crease and groin area.
Does it take two people to deploy the device?
No. Two people are preferred and will make the deployment more expeditious;
however, you can deploy on one site first, then move to the other side of the bed,
gurney or table and deploy the other side.
How do I clean the base unit?
The base unit can be cleaned using a hospital approved disinfectant. Wipe it down
after each use. Any remaining stains can be removed by submerging the base unit in
soapy water. Do not autoclave.
