Shear-reduction cushioning devices are provided for the prevention of shear related wounds. Cushioning devices include upper and lower cushioning layers that contact each other through at least one internal shear reduction layer provided between the cushioning layers and extending over a shear reduction region, such that dynamic relative translation of the two cushioning layers is permitted within the shear reduction region while absorbing friction and shear internally. The interface between the cushioning layers (where the shear reduction layer is provided) may be angled relative to an external surface of the cushioning device. The cushioning layers may be attached or attachable to one another beyond the shear reduction region, to limit an amount of relative translation of the cushioning layers and to re-center or reset the cushioning layers after use.

A mobile medical office may include a desk platform including a desk surface, and a telescoping swivel arm including a fixed portion and a telescoping portion, the fixed portion operably attached to a frame and the telescoping portion pivotably attached to the desk platform such that the desk platform is adjustable from a) a collapsed configuration in which the desk platform is in a position substantially perpendicular to a seating support to b) a deployed configuration in which the desk platform is in a position substantially parallel the seating support.

An apparatus includes a body, an upright member, a frame, and a plurality of field generating elements. The body is configured to be positioned between a patient's back and a backrest of a chair. The upright member extends upwardly from the body. The frame has a curved configuration configured to partially surround a patient's head. The field generating elements are configured to generate an electromagnetic field around a patient's head partially surrounded by the frame.

An apparatus that supports a user in a variety of positions to comfortably perform tasks, such as applying one or more tattoos to skin of a subject is herein disclosed. The apparatus can be reconfigured to optimally position and support the arms and/or chest of the user. A method for using a stool can involve rotating armrests of the apparatus from a stowed position to a deployed position. The armrests can support the user's forearms while supporting the user's chest such that the user can comfortably perform tasks in front of a chest support of the stool.

A patient support apparatus including a seat section, a backrest section that is movable relative to the seat section, and an arm supported relative to the seat section. The arm is adapted to move between a first position adjacent the seat section for use as an arm rest for a person sitting on the patient support apparatus to a raised second position adjacent the backrest section. The arm and the backrest section are coupled together when the arm is in the raised second position wherein the arm moves with the backrest section.

A medical chair with height adjustable armrest comprises a lifting mechanism, a base coupled to a bottom side of the lifting mechanism, a sitting part coupled to an upper side of the lifting mechanism, and a backrest part coupled rotatably to the upper side of the lifting mechanism. An armrest comprises an armrest stop with the armrest rotatably coupled to the backrest part adjustable to an upper position and a bottom position, where, in the bottom position, the armrest stop bears on the first stop coupled to the backrest part, and in the upper position, the armrest stop does not bear on the first stop. A latch system movably attached to the backrest part comprises a latch with back surface and a second stop where the latch system is adjustable into a first position of the latch mechanism and into a second position of the latch system where in the first position of the latch system, the latch is located between the first stop and the armrest stop and in the second position of the latch system, the latch is not located between the first stop and the armrest stop, and where an upper position of the armrest is a position where the armrest stop bears on the second stop or any other position where the armrest is higher than in case when the armrest stop bears on the second stop.
