CSF- Carbon Spine Frame
The Carbon Spine Frame (CSF) from Schaerer Medical is an advanced solution for prone patient positioning, designed to combine safety, ergonomics, and optimal access during surgery.
Its unique four-pad support system evenly distributes the patient’s weight across the thoracic and pelvic areas, allowing the abdominal region to remain completely free. When used with Axis or Arcus surgical tables, the CSF ensures maximum functionality thanks to its cantilevered design, which facilitates access for surgical and anesthesia staff, as well as for equipment such as O-rings and C-arms.
