sahu sir live class number (133) surgical positions - patient positioning during surgery - periop

In surgery, patients can be positioned in various ways depending on the type of procedure being performed and the area of the body being operated on.

Supine Position:
The patient lies flat on their back with arms placed at their sides or on arm boards.
This is the most common surgical position and is used for many types of surgeries, such as abdominal, cardiac, and orthopedic procedures.

Prone Position:
The patient lies face down on their stomach with arms extended by their sides or positioned above their head.
This position is used for surgeries on the back, spine, and other posterior areas.

Lateral Position:
The patient lies on their side with the surgical side facing up.
The lower leg is typically straight while the upper leg may be flexed for stability.
This position is used for surgeries involving the lungs, kidneys, and hips.

Lithotomy Position:
The patient lies on their back with their legs elevated and supported in stirrups.
This position is commonly used for gynecological, urological, and colorectal surgeries.

Trendelenburg Position:
The patient lies flat on their back on an inclined plane, with the head down and feet elevated.
This position is used in surgeries that require better visualization of pelvic organs or to manage blood flow.

Reverse Trendelenburg Position:
The patient lies flat on their back on an inclined plane, with the head elevated and feet down.
This position is used for upper abdominal surgeries and can help reduce blood loss.

Sitting (Semi-Fowler's or Fowler's) Position:
The patient is positioned in a seated or partially seated position.
This position is often used for surgeries on the face, neck, and shoulders.

Jackknife (Kraske) Position:
The patient lies on their abdomen with the hips elevated and the head and feet down.
This position is used for surgeries involving the anus, rectum, and back.

Lloyd-Davies Position:
Similar to the lithotomy position, but the legs are placed farther apart.
This position is used for surgeries involving the lower abdomen and pelvis.

Beach Chair Position:
The patient is positioned in a reclined, upright position with the head and torso elevated.
This position is commonly used for shoulder surgeries and certain head and neck surgeries.

It's important to note that each surgical position comes with its own considerations and potential risks, such as pressure points or nerve compression. Proper padding and support must be provided to minimize these risks and ensure patient safety and comfort.
