What our clients say about us
“The IPV is a super product. Thank you for your beautiful and practical solution to ventilate patients comfortably in the prone position.”
Team Intensive Care
AZ St-Maarten Belgium
“This method is simple, more ergonomic and more hygienic than the ways and materials with which one is familiar today. The position of the patient was correct and stable.”
OR Team
UZ Leuven (Belgium)
“One day these medical devices will become mandatory.”
Neurosurgeon
UZ Gent (Belgium)
“With the Ergotrics inflatable prone positioning system you can work much faster, more hygienically and healthier for the staff, both when the patient is transferred to the prone position and during the positioning itself.”
Prof Robert Pflugmacher,
Universitätsklinikum Bonn (Germany)
“The ergonomic advantages of inflatable positioning devices are clear. Furthermore we think that the optimal positioning also will result in less intra-abdominal pressure and therefore less venous pressure, better operating conditions and possibly less intraoperative blood loss. We will investigate this further.”
Dr. F. van Eijs, M.D, Ph.D.
Anesthetist, ETZ The Netherlands
“With the IBO and IPS we can prepare the patient for surgery in prone position with 2 nurses less. This is a great advantage for efficiency in the operating theatre”
