A heel stirrup is a medical device designed to securely support a patient's heel during procedures, keeping the foot in a stable position. It is commonly used in pairs to maintain the lithotomy position for obstetric, gynecological, urological, or rectal examinations and surgeries.
Heel stirrups are reusable accessories that attach to operating tables, examination tables, or treatment chairs. They are typically made of metal and plastic components and are regulated as accessories to the primary procedure equipment they support.
