Without stable, continuous positioning, the hip joint is highly vulnerable to subluxation, dislocation, or poor joint healing during early recovery. The Protekt® Anti-Abduction Knee Spreader directly solves this operational problem, acting as an unyielding, anatomical positioning block that maintains safe hip abduction while distributing pressure evenly across the thighs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe interior architecture of this knee separator utilizes a high-density, high-resiliency polyurethane foam block precisely calibrated to hold the patient's thighs exactly 4 inches (10 cm) apart. This fixed distance provides the ideal anatomical spacing required to keep the head of the femur secure within the acetabulum, eliminating dangerous adduction or internal rotation during sleep or extended bed rest. By shaping the core to match the natural contour of the inner thigh, the spreader prevents high point loads, protecting fragile skin layers from static friction and deep tissue strain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cb\u003eKey Benefits:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eFixed 4-Inch Anatomic Separation:\u003c\/b\u003e Precision-engineered core spacing holds the patient's thighs exactly 4 inches apart to ensure continuous hip abduction and prevent joint dislocation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eUniform Pressure Distribution:\u003c\/b\u003e Contoured structural foam boundaries match the natural curve of the inner thigh, spreading weight evenly to prevent localized friction sores.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e46-Inch Heavy-Duty Anchoring Strap:\u003c\/b\u003e Outfitted with a long, durable utility strap that wraps securely around both limbs to keep the positioning wedge properly aligned during patient shifts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eDual Cover Options for Facilities:\u003c\/b\u003e Available with a soft, breathable polyester cover for general patient comfort, or an institutional-grade vinyl cover for easy fluid cleanup.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e100% Medical-Grade Latex-Free:\u003c\/b\u003e Constructed completely without natural rubber latex to eliminate the risk of severe allergic reactions in sensitive clinical environments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eSimple Wipe-Down Sanitization:\u003c\/b\u003e The easy-to-clean vinyl variant blocks fluid penetration, allowing nurses and environmental services staff to sanitize the surface quickly between patient uses.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cb\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eApplication Class:\u003c\/b\u003e Orthopedic Leg Positioning Aid \/ Hip Anti-Abduction Wedge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eCore Architecture:\u003c\/b\u003e High-density, form-fitting structural polyurethane foam core\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eStrap Length Parameter:\u003c\/b\u003e 46-inch (117 cm) integrated adjustable positioning strap\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eAnatomical Spacing Profile:\u003c\/b\u003e Maintains a fixed 4-inch (10 cm) separation between the inner thighs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eAllergen Safety Rating:\u003c\/b\u003e 100% Latex-Free material formulation\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eFlammability Compliance:\u003c\/b\u003e Materials are formulated to satisfy strict California Technical Bulletin (TB) 117 fire safety codes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eManufacturer Warranty:\u003c\/b\u003e 1-Year Non-Prorated Performance Warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Proactive","offers":[{"title":"Polyester","offer_id":31602770247731,"sku":"PRO-60130","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Vinyl","offer_id":31602770280499,"sku":"PRO-60140","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2304\/8155\/products\/Protekt_Anti-Abduction_Knee_Spreader_Polyester.jpg?v=1754949775","url":"https:\/\/rescue-supply.com\/products\/proactive-medical-protekt-anti-abduction-knee-spreader","provider":"Rescue Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
