Smith & Nephew 72201813 Ferkel Thigh Support Disposable Pad (New/Unopened)

The Smith & Nephew 72201813 is a specialized, single-use cushioning liner designed exclusively for use with the Ferkel Thigh Holder system. This pad is a critical safety component for surgeons performing ankle arthroscopy or distal tibia procedures. By providing a medical-grade foam barrier between the patient's thigh and the rigid stabilization frame, the 72201813 redistributes the significant pressure required to hold the leg in a fixed position, protecting the soft tissue, vasculature, and nerves from compression injury.

This New-in-Box item remains in its original, undamaged manufacturer's packaging, ensuring it is free from environmental contaminants and ready for immediate clinical use. The pad's ergonomic "wrap" design allows for rapid setup and a secure fit within the 72201812 stabilizer, facilitating a faster room turnover and a more standardized patient positioning protocol in high-volume sports medicine centers.
