Figure 2 Immobilizing the infant To position for circumcision: The infant’s perineum should rest against the raised platform between his legs (Figure 3). This elevates the genitalia for the procedure. For smaller infants, place a folded towel under the hips for additional elevation.

The infant should be under continuous observation when immobilized. Use of non-Olympic straps is not recom- mended and may lead to product failure. Damage resulting from using straps purchased from other manufacturers is not covered by the product warranty. Arm straps (x2) Leg straps (x2)
