There is provided herein an examination table that is capable of being converted to render either an examination configuration or a seating configuration. The table includes a planar table member having a suitable surface for the examination of a subject and is adjustable between a horizontal orientation for medical evaluation of the subject and a vertical orientation when in the table member is not in use for exams.

An epidural patient positioning system for providing a mobile support platform which is adjustable for a wide range of patient sizes and configurations of treatment tables. The epidural patient positioning system includes a base assembly having a plurality of casters, a vertical assembly extending upwardly from the base assembly, a pair of adjustable foot supports positioned on either side of the vertical assembly, and pair of adjustable arm supports positioned on either side of the vertical assembly, a torso support member positionable both vertically and laterally rom the vertical assembly, and a motor and control assembly.

The technology relates to medical equipment, namely, to a medical chair for recording an electrocardiogram in the first lead («1-lead»), and can be used in medical institutions, pharmacies, public organizations and at home.

Chair for measuring electrocardiogram in the first lead containing: two dry capacitive contact electrodes, each is attached to the appropriate armrest; wherein electrodes are made in the form of handles and configured in such a way as to enable the user to hold onto them with their palms in a sitting position; wherein electrodes are adapted to connect them to the lead cable for connection with the electrocardiograph, wherein electrodes are isolated from the chair frame through a dielectric spacer, wherein the electrocardiograph holder is attached to the chair so that the electrocardiograph secured in the holder is at user eye level.

A chair including a seat, a seatback, a lift, at least one electric motor, and a brake and swivel system having a dual bearing Lazy Susan rotating mechanism, two soft bumpers, and a disc brake locking mechanism with a handle.

An apparatus for positioning a human hand; the apparatus is designed to assist stroke victims or individuals with no or limited use of their hands. It allows for better airflow to the palm and fingers, keeps hands dry, and reduces collection of dirt, oil, odor-causing germs, etc. from collecting in the palm region. The device may consist of two cylindrical tubes secured together with bands and to the hand with a simple-to-adjust strap.

The present invention related to a joint positioning device for positioning a joint and methods for using such devices. The joint positioning device may comprise a patient support comprising a substantially flat surface, the patient support configured to be positioned proximate to a chair; a shoulder pole mounted to the patient support, the shoulder pole oriented substantially perpendicular to a substantially flat surface of the patient support; and a cylindrical shoulder pad mounted to the shoulder pole, the shoulder pad oriented substantially perpendicular to the shoulder pole. The joint positioning device may further comprise a vertical pillar, the vertical pillar oriented substantially perpendicular to the substantially flat surface of the patient support.

A birthing chair for facilitating labor and delivery of an infant. The birthing chair comprises a seat having a seat base and a detachable seat cushion. The seat base forms an aperture for delivery of an infant therethrough. Leg extensions may be attachable to the seat base for supporting the legs of the mother. The seat base may comprise a joint that opens and moves the seat base and leg extensions laterally and expands the size of the aperture in the seat base. The birthing chair may further comprise a suspension system that enables the mother to operate the chair to adjust her position and height at will. The suspension system allows the mother to move in any direction while seated in the birthing chair and still remain supported in the birthing chair. The suspension system may be adjustable. The birthing chair may further comprise a back, headrest, stirrups and handles.

There is provided herein an examination table that is capable of being converted to render either an examination configuration or a seating configuration. The table includes a planar table member having a suitable surface for the examination of a subject and is adjustable between a horizontal orientation for medical evaluation of the subject and a vertical orientation when in the table member is not in use for exams.

The present invention relates to a portable body support and, more particularly, a body support providing functions of preventing the body from sliding down from an inclined support and also completely relieving load on the neck supporting the head at a face support part of the body support when the body support, such as a folding table or a portable temporary bed, is obliquely set up on the floor and used in a prone position so as to be useable for activities such as reading, thereby ensuring an effect of providing a technical configuration for not generating neck pain at all. As to the technical configuration, provided is the portable body support for coupling a face support mask and a pelvis support saddle to each other by using hinges, bolts and the like and constructing the coupled mask and saddle. When reading for a long time in a prone state by using the portable body support, comprising the mask and the saddle, of the present invention, neck pain, whole body fatigue, and the like are not generated at all, and an advantage of maintaining, for a long time, mental strength and posture to concentrate conveniently on reading in a prone state is guaranteed.
