Competitive Landscape
Xodus competes in the patient positioning segment against large diversified medtech companies (e.g., 3M, Hillrom) and numerous smaller manufacturers of foam pads and positioning aids. Its differentiation is based on clinical evidence, specialty-specific design, and a strong brand focused solely on perioperative safety, rather than competing on price alone.
