A method of securing a patient onto an operating table when the patient is in a position such as the trendelenburg position and apparatus therefor including a kit. A viscoelastic pad is used to support and hold a patient on a medical procedure table during a medical procedure performed while the table, and thus the patient lying thereon, is in an inclined position, such as the Trendelenburg position. The viscoelastic pad has characteristics which promote a minimization of pressure forces on the patient's body, as well as promote a secure cushioning and holding of the patient in a desired position on the table, in order to minimize injury to the patient.

Devices, systems and methods for patient stabilization are disclosed.

For many side sleepers, a common hindrance to getting a good night's rest has been the position of one's knees during repose. It's outright uncomfortable to have one's knee caps resting atop each other, and so one leg must be slightly in front of or behind the other to avoid this discomfort. A common solution involves sleeping with a pillow between one's legs, but pillows are often too bulky and the material lacks the ability to breathe, resulting in uncomfortable temperature changes, and they never seem to stay in place! Introducing the Knuggle, a wearable brace for one's knee that provides cushioned support for the inner-thigh and knee area. The Knuggle is easy to remove, stays in place, and provides the perfect amount of support for one's sleeping preference, and with custom designs one can personalize their nightwear to match their own unique style.

Caskets, cap panel assemblies for a casket, and methods for manufacturing cap panel assemblies are described. A casket may include a casket shell, at least one casket cap pivotally mounted on the casket shell, and a cap panel assembly mounted in the at least one casket cap. The cap panel assembly may include a cap panel, a puffing member attached to each edge of the cap panel, a cap panel insert positioned in-line with the cap panel, and a plurality of resilient members positioned on a front face of the cap panel insert. The plurality of resilient members may be tensioned, for example, to hold keepsakes, memorabilia, or other types of objects on or in the cap panel insert. The cap panel insert can include a mounting bracket or a screw and wire assembly for mounting the cap panel insert on a wall.
