Arrangements described herein relate to systems, apparatuses, and methods for a disposable kit containing medical items configured for a medical device including a head cradle to support a head of a subject, the disposable kit includes a container that encloses a head cradle pad configured to be affixed to the head cradle, at least one fiducial marker configured to be disposed on a location at the head of the subject, and at least one enclosure configured to cover a portion of the medical device.

In order to satisfy a conventional demand from users for easily portable chairs that can be used in a variety of situations, a chair includes: a main body having a seat surface and capable of being installed on an installation plane; and a backrest rotatably attached to the main body. The chair is configured to have a box-like shape having one or more faces that are positioned so as to cover two lateral sides and an upper side of the seat surface in a folded state in which the backrest covers the upper side of the seat surface. The one or more faces are constituted by outer surfaces of the main body and an outer surface of the backrest. This chair can be easily carried to various places.

A multi-axis headrest system for simultaneously locking or adjusting all axis of an adjustable headrest with a single lever or a single point of adjustment is provided. No external tools are required but may be used if desired. The single lever or point of adjustment allows the headrest to be correctly positioned optimizing the comfort, function and safety of the user. The single lever or point of adjustment provides the caregiver, or attending individual, the ability to adjust the positioning of the headrest with greater ease, more control and confidence. The single lever or point of adjustment causes a locking mechanism or means to generate a clamping force that locks the headrest in place. The same lever or point of adjustment also causes the locking mechanism or means to release the clamping force to allow adjustment of the headrest. The ease of adjustability is achieved without compromising security and durability.

This invention pertains to medical accessories for wheelchairs. It specifically relates to a headrest system that can be attached to a wheelchair, medical chair, or bed for home use, hospitals or other medical centers. It is intended for use of patients with swallowing difficulties to prevent Aspiration Pneumonia during eating or drinking. This headrest would support the head in the proper position for deglutition that blocks the larynx entrance during swallowing and prevent food or drink from entering into respiratory system. Wherein, a serious problem for patients with lung diseases is, inhaling foreign material such as food and drink that could ultimately cause lung infection. This invention addresses this concern. The novelty introduced here is the design and technicalities of an attachable headrest with adjustable length and tilting head cushion. There is a wide variety of operation for this invention; this unit can be used in any private or public place such as private homes, hospitals, nursing homes, medical care centers, and alike.

An adjustable head support includes an articulating arm that has a plurality of members, at least one of the members is attached to a consecutive member and configured to rotate about a first axis. At least another of the members is attached to a consecutive member and configured to rotate about a second axis, the first axis and the second axis being perpendicular. A head support assembly is pivotally coupled to the articulating arm.

A powered wheelchair is operated by sensor-based control pads that include force transducers to produce a variable output signal that is proportional to a varying force applied. The control pad provides an analog-type output that provides a variable speed signal to a controller to operate the wheelchair at a variable speed in both forward/reverse directions and in right or left turning directions.

An adjustable chair assembly comprising a frame, a seat assembly, a back assembly and at least one of a seat space-filling element and a back space-filling element. The seat assembly extends along a seat plane and comprises a first seat element and a second seat element adjustably positionable with respect to one another along the seat plane and together defining a support surface of the seat assembly. The back assembly extends along a back plane and comprises a first back element and a second back element adjustably positionable with respect to one another along the back plane and together defining a support surface of the back assembly. A central gap is defined in at least one of the support surfaces and the at least one of the seat space-filling element and the back space-filling element is removably insertable in the central gap of the corresponding support surface.

The apparatuses and methods of making and using the same are directed to bathing apparatus to support an object while bathing the object with a fluid. The bathing apparatus may comprise a support assembly constituting a support structure of the apparatus; a support surface to support the object, the support surface supported by the support portion; and a fluid catch disposed on at least three sides of the support surface, the fluid catch serving as a basin for the fluid in such manner to contain the fluid separate from the support surface.
