Where the Vinyl Covered Flat Bottom V-Trough Head Holder Fits
The V-trough gives the adult head a deep, centered channel, so it settles in and does not roll to one side during an AP or PA exam. The flat bottom keeps the holder square on the table, and the walls of the trough hold the head without a strap. Because the foam and vinyl carry no metal, it suits the MRI suite. Keep in mind the vinyl and its sewn seams show up in imaging, so when you need a trough that stays clear on an X-ray, the closed cell immobilizer troughs give a non-coated, radiolucent option.
Built for Comfort and Clean-Up
- Deep V-trough centers the adult head, so it holds position for AP and PA exams without a strap.
- High-density foam gives an even, supportive resting place through a long study.
- Royal blue reinforced vinyl wipes clean and resists tears, so it stands up to daily use.
- Fully sewn seams seal the cover, so fluid stays on the surface and the foam stays dry.
- Carries no metal, so it works in MR-safe environments.
- Latex-free, so it suits patients and staff with a latex sensitivity.
Cleaning and Care
Clean the vinyl with cold water and a mild detergent right after any contact with fluid. A disinfectant wipe handles routine cleaning, with a few minutes of dry time before the next patient. Skip harsh solvents and do not soak, launder, or autoclave the holder, since that shortens the life of the vinyl. Store it clean and dry with the rest of your positioning sponges so the trough keeps its shape.
