The STARSystem (STARBoard, STARSupport and STARTable) forms a clinically engineered medical arm board system for right side radial access in cath labs.
The STARSystem facilitates ease of radial access during Interventional Cardiology procedures, while enhancing the operational environment. It is primarily designed for working on the right-side of the patient, but can be used for both right-side and left-side radial access.
Designed to work with any cardiac or radiology procedure table, the STARSystem is a patient positioning system that is quick to install and adjust to variations in patient size. Set-up takes seconds with no consumable components required. The STARBoard allows for quick, effective presentation of the patient’s wrist for distal radial access and for proximal radial access when the hyper-extended position is preferred. Once access is achieved, a simple adjustment of the STARBoard allows you to rotate the patient’s wrist to a more relaxed, medially-rotated position during the rest of the procedure. The system facilitates both right and left arm access when working on the patient’s right side. Made with carbon fibre for superior strength, radiolucency and durability, the STARBoard is lightweight and compact.
The STARBoard will hold the patient's arm in the position you set with the adjustable friction bearings while remaining free to rotate and adjust.
The STARTable provides clinicians with an adjustable ergonomic work surface and extra protection from scatter radiation with 0.5mm Lead (Pb). Click here to check the scatter radiation report.
The STARSupport connects to the STARBoard after radial access is gained enabling left arm procedures with superior patient comfort.

How much protection from scatter radiation does it offer?
The shield includes 0.5mm lead (Pb) for scatter protection.
Does it assist with left arm access too?
The system comes with the STARSupport which can be connected to the STARBoard for left arm access.
Is it easy to clean?
The system components can be easily wiped with disinfectant between cases. You can consider placing it within a clean bag that is disposed of following each procedure.
My arm pad was stained with blood post-procedure and we can’t remove it, what should we do?
Before placing the patient’s arm on the Arm Support Pad and Armrest, we recommend draping the Arm Support Pad prior to use to avoid blood contamination as the soft foam padding is subject to staining.
The arm pad can be reused after disinfection, provided there is no visible damage or tearing.
If you are still concerned with the presence of bloodstains, please feel free to contact us to purchase a replacement Arm Support Pad.
What's the difference between the STARSystem and the IR System?
While both systems can be used for radial access, the STARSystem is primarily designed for working on the right-side, and the IR System, for the left.
For procedures that require right-side radial access, often seen in the cardiovascular space, we recommend using the STARSystem - this comes with a STARBoard, STARTable + Shield, and the STARSupport. If left-side radial access is required, but the clinician prefers to work on the right-side, then the STARSupport component can we used to hold the left-arm in place. Note that the STARTable + Shield can only be used on the right side.
For procedures that require left-side radial access, often seen in interventional radiology, we recommend using the IR System - this comes with a STARBoard, Extension Tray and the IR Shield. The Extension Tray component helps to transition the guide wire from the patient to your draped trolley.
