Troop Elevation Pillow
The Troop Elevation Pillow® is designed and intended to facilitate airway management for obese and large-framed patients. The pillow is for intra-op and post-op care.
Designed and developed by a practicing Anaesthetist, the Elevation Pillow addresses the inherent problem of "stacking blankets". It is both stable and easy to setup.
The Pillow quickly achieves head elevated laryngoscopy position (H.E.L.P). This position is recommended for airway management of obese patients.
Features
- Aids airway management for obese patients.
- Improves "ease-of-breathing".
- Obese patients breathe more comfortably during pre-oxygenation (pre-induction) and during regional anaesthesia.
- The Elevation Pillow greatly facilitates mask ventilation.
- Helps align the Upper Airway Axes.
- Easier, faster setup eliminating "stacking of blankets".
- Stable patient positioning is maintained during surgery.
- Helps decrease acid reflux (aid to manage GORD).

The Troop Pillow can be easily cleaned/wiped over with any proprietary hospital cleaner.
The Troop Pillow is not disposable.
To be used in conjunction with the disposable Troop Pillow Covers.
Disposable Barrier Covers are strongly recommended to keep the Vinyl material clean and free of patient fluid. These are disposable and will save on turn around time between cases.
