3. Obtain adequate help to place both legs into the stirrups simultaneously, to
adjust for patient leg length, loosen boot lock handle and gently slide boot up
or down the bar, slightly flexing the knees. When satisfied with the position, re-
tighten the boot lock handle.
4. The ankle, knee, and opposing shoulder should be maintained in a relatively
straight-line during positioning. Notice that for a typical patient, the thigh and
foot are abducted at approximately the same angle.
5. To reposition the stirrups, squeeze the squeeze handle together. When you have
reached the desired degree of lithotomy and or abduction simply release the
handle.
6. Perform a final check to ensure that the patient’s heels are properly seated in
the heels of the Boots and that there are no pressure points on the calf. The leg
must be centered in the Boot to eliminate pressure on the peroneal nerve.
Secure the pad. Over tightening the Velcro strap serves no benefit and can
cause damages to the strap/ pad. Gently secure the strap to the boot, never
pulling it at an angle.
