In one embodiment, a neck support device includes: first and second leg attachment portions; a head cradle; and a first coupling portion attaching the first leg attachment portion to the head cradle and a second coupling portion attaching the second leg attachment portion to the head cradle. In another embodiment, a method of supporting the neck of a user when the user is laying on his or her back or supporting the back of a user when the user is in a seated position includes: attaching the first leg attachment portion to the first leg of the user; attaching the second leg attachment portion to the second leg of the user; and fixing the head cradle.

The vibrating foot rest is configured for use with a patient. The vibrating foot rest is a therapeutic device. The vibrating foot rest massages the legs of the patient. The vibrating foot rest comprises a foam wedge and a master circuit. The foam wedge contains the master circuit. The foam wedge is secured to the legs of the patient. The master circuit is a vibrating structure that massages the legs of the patient.

A support cushion assembly (10) suitable for use in medical institutions and the like. The assembly (10) comprises a profiled body with a waterproof washable cover containing a filling. The assembly has a first cushion part (12) locatable beneath the back of a person lying on their side, a connecting part (14) extends from the first cushion part (12) to a second elongate cushion part (16) which is locatable in use to support the person's abdomen and/or their legs.

A gaming support pad includes a cover having fill material therein that forms at least one feature on a side of the gaming support pad. The gaming support pad further includes a pad, enclosed by the cover, the pad comprising a plurality of different material layers.

Methods and devices for reading a memory cell using multi-stage memory sensing are described. The memory cell may be coupled to a digit line after the digit line during a read operation. A transistor may be activated to couple an amplifier capacitor with the digit line during the read operation. The transistor may be deactivated for a portion of the read operation to isolate the amplifier capacitor from the digit line while the memory cell is coupled to the digit line. The transistor may be reactivated to recouple the amplifier capacitor to the digit line to help determine the value of the memory cell.

A back rest assembly includes a base assembly mountable adjacent a resting surface and a back rest having a supported side pivotably supported by the base assembly and an unsupported side spaced laterally apart from the supported side along a lateral axis. When the base assembly is mounted, the back rest is positionable over the resting surface and selectively pivotable about the lateral axis for adjusting an angular position of the back rest relative to the resting surface.

A zero-gravity position wedge system includes an upper body wedge containing one or more inflatable bladders, a foot wedge, and a pump to inflate the bladders. A mat system includes a mat containing one or more inflatable bladders and a pump to inflate the bladders. The mat is placed on a foam wedge or a zero-gravity position chair. A zero-gravity position chair includes a chair with a reclined upper body support and a raised knee portion; a pair of armrests with a cuff; at least one inflatable bladder in the upper body support; and a pump to inflate the bladder. The cuff activates an acupressure point.

An examination table that can be used in other places than a hospital is provided. A portable examination table comprises a seat part for supporting a bottom of a patient, an angle-changeable backrest part for supporting a back of the patient, a pair of angle-changeable arm parts, abutting parts configured to be raised or lowered when the angle of the arm parts relative to the seat part is changed and abut the back of the knees of the patient, and link parts configured to link the arm parts to the backrest part and change the angle of the arm parts, and is configured to convert between an end-sitting positioning state, a lithotomy positioning state, and a folded state.

The present invention is a lower back restoration device to keep the legs in a position in which the lower back and knees form a desired angle. The device has an elevated base portion comprising of leg receiving channels to position the legs of the user bent at the knees at approximately 90 degrees. The base has a height that is substantially adjustable to the length of the upper legs of the user. The device keeps the knees in separated position and symmetrically spaced from each other and keeps the legs in-line and prevent of twisting the lower back, thereby keeps the lower back in neutral position and removes the pressure from the lower back.
