Midmark 9A82001-216 - ARMBOARD, HAND SURGERY- PEBBLE GREY, EACH
The Midmark 9A82001-216 Hand Surgery Armboard is a precision support accessory designed to stabilize the upper extremity during delicate procedures. Built for surgical and procedural environments where control and patient positioning are critical, this armboard provides dependable support while maintaining patient comfort. The pebble grey upholstery complements modern clinical aesthetics and matches standard Midmark table finishes, allowing seamless integration into existing procedure rooms.
Its rigid internal structure prevents unwanted movement during fine motor procedures such as hand, wrist, and forearm treatments. The supportive surface reduces muscle tension and assists clinicians in maintaining consistent positioning, which helps improve procedural efficiency and accuracy. The board attaches securely to compatible exam and procedure tables, providing stability without obstructing the clinicians working space.
Key Benefits
The armboard improves procedural precision by keeping the patients arm properly aligned and immobilized. This reduces the need for manual support by staff and allows clinicians to focus entirely on the procedure. The contoured padding distributes pressure evenly, helping prevent discomfort during longer treatments.
Durable upholstery resists fluid penetration and is easy to disinfect between patients. The neutral pebble grey color maintains a clean professional appearance even after repeated cleaning cycles. The boards stable mounting system prevents wobble or shifting, ensuring safety during both minor and advanced procedures.
Compatibility and Applications
This armboard is designed for use with compatible Midmark procedure and examination tables equipped with side rail mounting capability. It is commonly used in dermatology, orthopedics, podiatry, plastic surgery, and outpatient surgical centers where upper extremity positioning is required.
Typical applications include suturing, minor surgical excisions, injections, hand therapy procedures, fracture management support, and microsurgical interventions. The accessory is particularly beneficial in procedures requiring steady hand positioning such as tendon repair or nerve work.
Usage Guidelines
Before attaching the armboard, confirm the table rail is clean and free of debris. Securely mount the armboard onto the rail and verify that the locking mechanism is engaged. The patients arm should be placed gently onto the padded surface, ensuring natural alignment of the shoulder and wrist.
Adjust the patient position rather than forcing the limb into alignment. During procedures, periodically confirm that circulation remains unrestricted. After the procedure, remove the patients arm carefully and disinfect the surface according to facility protocol.
Certifications and Safety Standards
The armboard is manufactured in accordance with healthcare equipment safety standards and designed for use in professional medical environments. Upholstery materials are intended for medical grade cleaning and disinfecting solutions commonly used in clinics and surgical centers. The mounting hardware is engineered to maintain stability under standard procedural loads.
Comparison with Competitors
Unlike generic arm supports that rely on foam padding alone, this armboard incorporates a reinforced internal structure that minimizes flex during precise procedures. Many universal armboards require frequent repositioning, whereas this model maintains stable alignment once secured.
Compared with disposable positioning aids, the Midmark armboard offers long term durability and cost efficiency. It also integrates visually with compatible procedure tables, preserving a consistent professional appearance across treatment rooms.
Typical User Profile and Application Scenarios
The armboard is commonly used by physicians, surgeons, physician assistants, and nurses working in outpatient surgery centers, specialty clinics, and hospital procedure suites. Facilities performing repetitive hand procedures benefit most from the positioning stability provided by this accessory.
Typical scenarios include dermatology lesion removal, carpal tunnel injections, wound repair, nail surgery, and postoperative dressing changes. The armboard also supports patient comfort during extended procedures that require the arm to remain elevated.
Best Practices for Use and Maintenance
Clean the upholstery after each patient using approved disinfectants. Avoid abrasive cleaners that may degrade the surface. Periodically inspect mounting hardware to confirm proper function and tightening. If visible wear appears on the padding, replace the accessory to maintain infection control standards.
Store the armboard in a dry location when not in use. Do not stack heavy objects on the padded surface to prevent permanent deformation. Regular inspection ensures the product maintains proper support performance over time.
Regulatory and Safety Information
This accessory is intended for professional medical use only and should be operated by trained healthcare personnel. Always confirm secure attachment prior to patient positioning. Do not exceed normal procedural load expectations. If instability or damage is observed, remove the product from service until replaced.
