Abstract
The present invention relates to a sterile packaging which considerably reduces the risk of contamination of a part which is in contact with an area on a patient's body, and which can be exposed to the risk of infection. More specifically, the invention has a replaceable air cushion unit for use in conjunction with a femoral compressor, which includes a base plate, an inflatable air cushion having a periphery attached to the base plate and a shielding element covering and sealing the air cushion from ambient surroundings. The base plate is also detachable from the femoral compressor after use.
