Usage

For professional use only as an accessory to compatible Plinth 2000 couches.
Install and adjust the stirrups according to Plinth Medical’s couch and accessory instructions, ensuring they are securely fixed to the couch before use.
Position the patient’s legs in the stirrups only after confirming that all locking mechanisms are engaged and the couch itself is correctly set up and stable.
Adjust height and angle of the stirrups as required by the clinical procedure while maintaining patient comfort and safety.
Use only with Plinth Medical couches and within the stated safe working load of the couch and accessories as specified in the relevant Plinth Medical user manuals.
Inspect the stirrups regularly for signs of damage, wear, or loose fittings; remove from service and have inspected or repaired by authorised service personnel if any defect is found.
Clean and decontaminate in line with local infection-control policies and Plinth Medical’s general cleaning guidance for couches and accessories (e.g. wipe with suitable detergent solution; use appropriate disinfectants if contamination is suspected).

Contraindications

Do not use with non-compatible couches or with any couch not approved by Plinth Medical for use with these accessories.
Do not use if any part of the stirrups or their mounting hardware appears damaged, loose, or incomplete.
Do not exceed the safe working load limits of the couch and its accessories as specified in the Plinth Medical user manuals.
Use with caution or according to local policy in patients where lithotomy positioning is clinically contraindicated or poses increased risk (e.g. certain hip, back, or vascular conditions).

Adverse Effects

As a positioning accessory, potential adverse effects relate to improper use or positioning, such as patient discomfort, pressure on soft tissues, or musculoskeletal strain if the legs are not supported correctly.
Risk of patient injury if the stirrups are not securely locked in place or if the couch and accessories are used contrary to manufacturer instructions (e.g. instability or sudden movement).
Potential for cross-contamination or infection if the stirrups are not cleaned and decontaminated appropriately between patients.

Storage Conditions

Store in a clean, dry clinical environment when not attached to a couch.
Avoid exposure to corrosive chemicals and harsh cleaning agents not recommended for chrome-finished medical equipment.
Inspect periodically for signs of corrosion, damage, or loose fittings and service or replace as required.
Follow any additional storage and maintenance guidance provided by Plinth Medical for couch accessories.
