T-POD Responder, Pelvic Stabilization Device

Description

ONE SIZE FITS ALL:
Unlike many pelvic bands or pelvic stabilization devices, T-PODResponder is one-size-fits all for both children (over 50 pounds) and adults. This means you only have to carry one size of device with you at any time

Based on the design of our popular T-POD product, T-PODResponder features a thinner and more compact design to better fit in your emergency bags (a 3-4mm thickness compared to the 7-8mm thickness of T-POD). The new 100% polyurethane material is thinner, breathable, latex-free, durable, contains moisture wicking capabilities and will not fray even when cut to size.

6 REASONS TO CHOOSE T-PODRESPONDER: 
 – One person can apply. Designed with an easy-to-tighten pulley system, T-PODResponder can be applied by one person in the field. 
 – One size fits all. You can customize the fit of T-PODResponder for nearly any size person over 50 lbs. 
 – 100% radiolucent. T-PODResponder is designed without the use of metal so it does not have to be removed for MRI, X-Ray and CT scans. 
 – Compact and lightweight. Designed to better fit into your emergency bag. 
 – Using a unique mechanical advantage pulley system, T-PODResponder ensures simultaneous, symmetrical compression, where and when needed—placing control of the tightening process in the hands of providers. 
 – Early pre-hospital pelvic immobilization using T-PODResponder reduces morbidity, mortality, blood loss, the need for blood transfusions and hospital length of stay.

T-PODRESPONDER CLINICAL ADVANTAGE:
 – Effective and easy-to-use device to stabilize the pelvic ring in patients that have suspected pelvic fractures and possible internal bleeding.1
 – Can substantially reduce transfusion requirements, length of hospital stay, as well as reduce mortality in patients with unstable pelvic fractures.2 
 – Can provide better stabilization of a globally unstable pelvic fracture than an external fixator. 3

T-PODRESPONDER PELVIC STABILIZATION BENEFITS:
 – Small & Lightweight Design – Featuring a 3-4mm thickness compared to the 7-8mm thickness of the previous T-POD design, T-PODResponder is now smaller and more compact than ever to better fit into your emergency bag.
 – One Person Application – The unique easy-to-tighten pulley system means that T-PODResponder can be easily applied by just one person in the field.
-One Size Fits All – No carrying around different sizes. You can quickly and easily trim T-PODResponder to customize the fit for any size person over 50 lbs. For morbidly obese patients, you can easily combine two T-PODResponder devices together. The device can be safely applied to any sized child over 50 lbs., so long as a 6-8 inch gap along the midline can be obtained.
– 100% Radiolucent – You do not have to remove and then reapply T-PODResponder for radiological procedures. Designed using no metallic parts, T-PODResponder can stay on and keep your patient’s pelvic region stable during MRI, X-Ray and CT scans.
– Symmetrical, Circumferential Compression – Designed using a unique pulley system spanning nearly the width of the belt, T-PODResponder offers compression that is evenly distributed on both sides of the pulley system and across the width of the binder.
– Modulated Compression – Unlike a buckle system where compression can only be adjusted at certain settings, the T-PODResponder pulley system means that infinite adjustments can be made.
– Over-tightening Prevention – T-PODResponder’s pulley system features a 6-8” gap that is designed specifically to prevent over-tightening.
– Improved Material – The new T-PODResponder uses new 100% polyurethane material that is thinner, breathable, latex-free, durable and contains moisture wicking capabilities. Better yet, the new material will not fray even when cut to size.
