Neuraxial Anesthesia Administration Proper Positioning Device.

EpiHug is an ergonomic foam pillow designed to facilitate optimal patient positioning for neuraxial anesthesia and improve patient comfort and safety. Its durable construction is made with sustainability in mind.

EpiHug is an ergonomic foam pillow designed to facilitate optimal patient positioning for neuraxial anesthesia and improve patient comfort and safety. Its durable construction is made with sustainability in mind. EpiHug is firm enough to provide patient support and stabilization while remaining soft enough to allow the patient to comfortably “hug” the device to reduce procedural anxiety.

Its use is seen frequently in obstetrics as well as orthopedics and various other specialties in the form of epidurals, spinals, or combined spinal-epidurals. 

“Based on my observations in real-world use, I’m confident that the EpiHug device helps ease patient anxiety, decreases the physical burden of nursing staff, and facilitates efficient  administration of neuraxial analgesia for obstetrical patients.”
