Abstract
The present invention provides an apparatus for moving a patient on a pad and holding the pad in place on an anterior hip table or a standard surgical table. The pad works in conjunction with the reusable patient lifting/moving base, allowing nurses to more readily and easily move patients on the table in order to facilitate surgical positioning. The pad may also be used in combination with a post overlay to prevent injuries to the genital area of the patient.
