A support device provides elevation and support for a patient's foot, including ankle and heal, and limits lateral and medial rotation of the foot. This protects the knee from injury while healing. The device includes a generally flat main body, two spaced-apart lateral ridges, and a medial depression between the lateral ridges that provides a support surface on which the foot may be positioned. The lateral ridges can extend to a height above the support surface so that inner side surfaces of the lateral ridges are adjacent to a majority of a foot placed in the medial depression. The lateral ridges can terminate below a top of the foot to permit unrestricted ventilation and access to the foot. The lateral ridges can be spaced apart to facilitate placement of a foot onto and removal of the foot from the support surface without manual manipulation of the device.

A novel foot support device includes a first sidewall adapted to engage the lateral side of a first foot, a second sidewall adapted to engage the lateral side of a second foot, and a backwall adapted to engage both the plantar region of the first foot and the plantar region of the second foot. In a particular embodiment, the first sidewall includes an inclined interior surface, the second sidewall includes an inclined interior surface, and the backwall includes an inclined interior surface. In another particular embodiment, the foot support device includes sidewalls and a backwall that can flatten and pivot relative to one another, facilitating a collapsible foot support device.

According to the present disclosure, a patient support system includes patient support tops for accommodating various body positions of a patient occupying the patient support tops. The patient support system may include various features to accommodate patient body positioning to facilitate surgical access.

Methods and systems are provided for an armboard adjustment assembly for a patient support table. In one embodiment, an armboard adjustment assembly is configured to retain a rotational position of an armboard of a patient support table via a plurality of one-way clutches, and in another embodiment the armboard adjustment assembly is configured to retain the rotational position of the armboard via a pair of friction pads. In this way, the armboard may be moved into a continuous plurality of positions between a fully lowered position and a fully raised position.

An arm support for a supine patient includes a support which can easily be attached to or removed from a standard medical table pad, and which supports the patient's forearms at an angle parallel to the body, with the biceps at right angles to the body. The arm support may include arm rests which may be slideably moved to accommodate patients with narrower or broader shoulder widths.

Embodiments of a side arm extension for a patient transport device comprise a patient transport device engagement member configured to engage a patient transport device frame or a support frame attached to the patient transport device frame, the side arm extension further comprising a rotatable and pivotable arm rest, and a side arm motion base connecting the arm rest to the patient transport device engagement member. The side arm motion base comprises, a rotational mechanism configured to rotate the arm rest, and a swing mechanism configured to pivot outwardly from the arm rest perpendicular to a perimeter of the patient transport device frame or patient transport device support frame.

Apparatus and methods for providing therapeutic treatment for symptoms associated with GERD and/or other digestive disorders and/or other medical conditions are described herein. In some embodiments, an apparatus includes a support element and a conformable riser element adjacent the support element. The riser element and the support element collectively form a body support member configured to support a user and define a receiving portion configured to receive a portion of the user's arm. The riser element and the support element are each disposed within a casing formed at least in part with a stretch material. In some embodiments, the riser element includes a polyester filler material and the stretch material includes a four-way stretch material. The four-way stretch material in combination with the polyester filler material enables the riser element to be conformable.
