A lightweight over-patient work surface that improves workflow and patient safety during retrograde femoral access procedures.
The Retrograde IR Platform is the ideal support for your equipment needs, providing a large, stable area for catheter / guide wire manipulation and management. The height adjustable work surface conveniently aligns with the femoral access site and improves patient comfort by eliminating the need to work directly on or around the patient’s legs.
It is exceptionally light, strong, radiolucent, and extremely easy to install by placing over the legs of a supine patient while they rest on the imaging table. The platform can be locked in place to ensure security during instances of patient restlessness.
The Platforms are available in two sizes.
Retrograde IR Platform: Ideal for clinicians who need a larger surface area with the flexibility to extend using the AM0410 Extension. This allows for a shorter setup when working with shorter wires and rapid exchange catheter systems or an extended platform for procedures requiring longer equipment.
Retrograde IR Platform - Narrow: Designed for clinicians who prioritise a compact surface, closer patient access, rail-mounted equipment clearance and compatibility with shorter wires and rapid exchange catheter systems. It is compatible with the M3693 Leg Extension but not with the AM0410 Extension. Available commercially from April 14.
Bringing the working surface closer to the access site allows for the team to work together side by side, with equipment available where you need it.
The modular design allows you to tailor your working surface to your procedural requirements.
The legs lock into the base to ensure the work surface is secure when you need it to be, even if the patient is restless.
Suitable for supporting clinicians' wrists and common equipment for interventional radiology procedures
Designed for easy set-up and removal
Creates a large, adjustable work-surface for laying procedural equipment
Can be adjusted to suit individual patient size
Made from materials that are permeable to X-ray radiation, allowing for clear imaging
Can be added if a longer work-surface is required (not available for the Narrow platform)
Smooth surface allows easy clean-up with approved cleaners and disinfectants

How much does the platform weigh?
The AM0400 weights 8.7kg without the extension. The AM0450 weighs 5.3 kg. Both are very light and easy to set up.
Does it work with my Imaging system?
The AM0400 works with all commonly used imaging systems with tables longer than 2.4 metres. The AM0450 only works with imaging systems with tables longer than 2.4 metres, and width of 50cm and less.
Does it fit all patients?
It will typically clear most large patient sizes. It is supplied with leg extensions giving a total clearance of 390mm from image table surface to the underside of the platform.
