The Midmark 9A506001-232 round premium upholstered headrest is designed to enhance patient positioning, comfort, and clinical accessibility during examinations and procedures. Built specifically for Midmark examination and procedure tables, this headrest provides stable head and neck support while maintaining a professional appearance suitable for modern medical environments. The Shadow upholstery finish offers a clean, neutral tone that blends seamlessly into contemporary clinical spaces.
This premium headrest features high-density cushioning and a durable medical-grade upholstery surface that supports extended patient contact without discomfort. The rounded profile distributes pressure evenly across the patients head, helping reduce tension and improving positioning accuracy during evaluations, imaging preparation, and minor procedures. Designed for daily use in high-volume practices, the headrest maintains structural integrity and visual quality even under frequent cleaning and repositioning.
Key Benefits
The headrest provides enhanced patient comfort through its ergonomic contouring and supportive foam density. Patients remain relaxed during examinations, improving cooperation and reducing movement during sensitive procedures.
Medical-grade upholstery resists cracking, tearing, and fluid penetration, ensuring long service life in demanding clinical environments. The smooth surface allows quick disinfection between patients.
The round shape supports natural cervical alignment, helping clinicians maintain accurate positioning for ENT, dermatology, and primary care examinations.
Shadow color upholstery maintains a professional appearance and reduces visible staining compared to lighter materials.
Secure attachment design prevents shifting during patient movement, ensuring reliable positioning throughout the procedure.
Compatibility and Applications
The Midmark 9A506001-232 headrest is engineered for compatibility with select Midmark examination and procedure tables that support interchangeable headrest accessories. It integrates directly into the tables mounting interface without modification.
Typical clinical applications include primary care examinations, dermatology procedures, wound care treatment, minor surgical preparation, ENT assessments, and patient consultations requiring upright or semi-reclined positioning.
The headrest is suitable for hospitals, outpatient clinics, ambulatory surgery centers, urgent care facilities, specialty practices, and long-term care settings where patient comfort and stability are essential.
Usage Guidelines
Install the headrest securely into the designated mounting bracket on the compatible Midmark table. Confirm that the locking mechanism is fully engaged before patient use.
Adjust the patient position slowly to ensure the head and neck remain supported. For reclining procedures, verify that the headrest remains centered and stable.
Clean the upholstery between patients using approved medical surface disinfectants. Avoid harsh solvents that may degrade the upholstery finish.
Inspect regularly for secure attachment and surface integrity prior to each clinical session.
Certifications and Safety Standards
The headrest is manufactured using healthcare-grade materials that meet clinical durability and infection control expectations. Upholstery components are designed to comply with CAL133 flammability performance requirements commonly specified for medical furnishings in regulated healthcare environments.
Materials used are suitable for routine clinical disinfection protocols and are compatible with commonly used hospital-grade cleaning agents.
Comparison with Competitors
Compared with generic examination head supports, the Midmark round premium headrest offers superior fit and stability because it is engineered specifically for Midmark tables. Universal headrests often require adjustment and may shift during procedures, while this model locks directly into the intended mounting system.
Lower-cost foam supports tend to flatten over time and create uneven pressure points. The high-density cushioning used in this headrest maintains shape retention and consistent patient support.
Many aftermarket options use standard vinyl that deteriorates under repeated cleaning. The medical-grade upholstery on this unit is designed for frequent disinfection cycles, extending usable lifespan and preserving appearance.
Typical User Profile and Application Scenarios
Primary care physicians use this headrest for routine examinations and consultations requiring seated or semi-reclined positioning.
Dermatology clinics rely on stable head support for precise lesion assessment and minor treatment procedures.
ENT specialists benefit from consistent head positioning during ear and throat examinations.
Urgent care facilities use the headrest for patient stabilization during wound evaluation and treatment.
Outpatient surgical centers employ it during preparation and recovery positioning to improve patient comfort.
Best Practices for Use and Maintenance
Clean immediately after each patient using approved disinfectant wipes to prevent contamination buildup.
Avoid sharp instruments contacting the upholstery surface to preserve integrity.
Inspect mounting components weekly to ensure secure attachment and prevent accidental movement.
Store in the neutral position when not in use to maintain foam resilience and prolong cushioning performance.
Replace if visible cracking, tearing, or loss of structural support occurs to maintain patient safety standards.
Regulatory and Safety Information
This accessory is intended for use by trained medical personnel within a clinical environment. Proper installation and positioning are required before patient contact. The headrest is not designed as a restraint device and should not be used to immobilize patients without appropriate supervision.
