Twin boom shoulder traction systems are available for shoulder arthroscopy applications and are designed to be placed away from the surgery zone. These traction systems can be positioned anywhere on the operating table and traction is applied from the end of the extended boom arm so that the system does not obstruct the surgical process.

Available in single or double traction systems, these shoulder traction units can be installed on any type of operating table. Components of these shoulder traction systems include traction cords, pulleys, arm gauntlets and arm slings.
