In this section we will talk about the proper use of the hover mat air transfer system in the operating room. We will explain how to prepare an operating table with the hover mat and show the correct technique for transferring onto and off of an operating table.
If the patient can transfer independently onto the surgical table than the hover mat should be preset on the table. If utilizing a gel pad for pressure relief during the procedure, place the pad on the or table first. Then place a sheet between it and the hover mat if desired to place linens and protective pads on the device to keep the surface clean. Hover check offers to disposable Sheet options that can be used to protect the hover mat. The hover cover is a highly absorbent disposable sheet that wicks away moisture and helps control the microclimate of the patient's skin. The logo side of the sheet is placed facing down while the absorbent side is against the patient's skin.
The disposable sheet provides another option, featuring an electronically weakened center line for easy removal post-surgery. The smooth shiny side is placed facing down while the textured absorbent side is against the patient's skin.
To keep the patient safety straps out of the way, connect them below the surgical table or tuck them underneath the table pad along with the overhanging sides of the hover mat and sheets or pads to keep them out of the way of any equipment that may be connected to the side rails of the O.R table.
Patients who cannot help themselves onto the or table can be placed on the hover mat and folding or pre-op using the log roll technique. The hover mat can then be used to laterally transfer the patient onto the surgical table. For demonstration purposes only. There will be no linens on top of the hover mat in this segment. It is recommended that a sheet be placed between the patient's body and the hover mat.
With a stretcher, wheels locked and rails down, insert the air supply hose into the hover mat. One caregiver should assume the position of safety, advise the patient of the move and instruct the other caregiver to turn on the air supply using the appropriate button for the hover mat width, once the hover mat is fully inflated, the caregiver next to the patient pushes the hover mat at an angle towards the receiving caregiver. Because the hover mat is wider than the O.R table. It is especially important that the receiving caregivers body is positioned against the table to ensure the stay close approach.
Once the caregiver has received the hover mat and patient, the other caregiver will move to the foot end of the or table to verify that the patient's body is centered on the surgical table. This step is very important to ensure the patient's safety prior to hover mount deflation. Once both caregivers have assessed the patient's positioning, one caregiver should assume the position of safety and inform the patient that the hover mat will deflate. The caregiver at the foot end will then press the standby button to deflate the hover map.
The safety straps can be removed and tucked under the O.R table mattress pad along with a hover mat or connected under the table. The patient will remain on the deflated hover mat during the surgical procedure, after the procedure on top the hover mat and connect the safety straps.
With a stretcher locked in position next to the surgical table transfer onto the stretcher using the same safe patient handling techniques. In PACU, the patient can remain on the deflated hover mat for future transfers, positioning to ease the insertion of a portable cassette of an X-ray as needed, or to offload for circulatory benefits and patient comfort.
