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.

A bed-cushion back-support (1) for lumbar recovery having three curved surfaces matching natural physiological curvature matches the natural curvature of the lower backbone of the human body and includes a convex surface (3) for the lumbar vertebrae, and reverse concave surfaces (2,4) for the sacral and lower thoracic vertebrae. The curved bed-surface formed by fixing the bed-cushion back-support on the bed board exactly matches the natural curvature of the backbone of a patient, and provides effective support to the backbone below the midportion of the thoracic vertebrae. With the effect of gravity on the human body, long-term use of the bed-cushion back-support provides long-term traction for an injured backbone, correcting deformities and restoring the functions of the lumbar vertebrae and surrounding tissues.

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, and a cap panel insert. The cap panel insert is fastened to the cap panel using pins. The cap panel insert can include a frame, fabric, filler, and a backing board. The cap panel insert can include elastic or ribbon-shaped straps positioned on a front face of the cap panel insert. The elastic or ribbon-shaped straps can be positioned in a lattice or grid-like arrangement. The cap panel insert can include a mounting bracket or a screw and wire assembly for mounting the cap panel insert on a wall.
