Ferno Medkids Baby Board - FNO-0313922
The Ferno Medkids Baby Board (#0313922) ensures that an infant patient is safe and secure with cervical alignment via a Pneumatic Positioning Device. The material is Dupont Cordura and is safe for x-rays.
Please note, this device is best for pre-term neonates and infants ranging from 2 lbs (1 kg) to 15 lbs (7 kg).
