Transcranial magnetic stimulation system
The purpose of the invention is to provide a transcranial magnetic stimulation system capable of guiding a patient into an optimum posture for treatment. The system 1 of the invention includes an optical device 502 for projecting a light spot 805 to a head of a patient and detecting a reflection light of the light spot; a memory means 71 for memorizing information included in the reflection light detected by the optical device as a reference information when the projected light spot on the patient overlaps a marking (800) provided on the patient; a calculation means 72 for using the reference information memorized in the memory means and a comparison information included in the reflection light of the light spot to calculate an overlap ratio between the marking and the light spot corresponding to the comparison information; and a display means 504 for displaying the overlap ratio.
Connection Joint
Connection joint between a first member and a second member where said connection joint comprises: a. a first slidable base member, where said slidable base member in a first end has a first conically shaped cavity, and in a second end has a portion extending from the distal end towards the first end, where a plurality of slits are provided in said portion, where said first slidable base member between the first conically shaped cavity and said second end has a cylindrical cross-section orthogonal to a longitudinal direction of said first slidable base member, and where b. a washer having at least one conical section providing expansion means arranged at least partly inside said first slidable member in the vicinity of the slits adjacent the second end, where said conical section is able to urge the first slidable member's portion provided with slits outwards and expand beyond the circumference of the cylindrical section; c. a bushing arranged outside said first slidable member, such that the slidable member may slide relative to the bushing in an axial direction, and d. a first partly shaped spherical member (rod), having a spherical part with an inner and an outer surface, said spherical part's outer surface adapted to be at least partly inserted in the conically shaped cavity of the first slidable member, and said spherical parts inner surface being suitable to engage; e. a first locking member (bl) having an outer surface adapted to engage said inner surface of the first partly spherical member, and a threaded aperture, said threaded aperture is threadily engaged to; f. a threaded bolt, said bolt having a thread in one end engaging the thread of the locking member and a head section in the opposite engaging the washer, g. and where the first partly spherical member and the bushing or the washer comprises fastening means for fastening the first partly spherical member and the bushing or the washer to said first and second members.
MEDICAL ROBOTIC WORK STATION
A medical robotic work station includes a frame and a robotic manipulator mounted on the frame for performing a treatment procedure on a patient seated in a chair adjacent the frame. The patient is in a seating posture and support locations are provided on the frame for resting bony members of the patient. Sensors track movement and position of the body members of the patient during performance of the treatment procedure by the robotic manipulator. The robotic manipulator is adapted to perform at least one of a medical, a dental, an ophthalmic and an orthopedic treatment procedure. A physician sits at a display monitor of a physician's work station for programming, monitoring and verifying a robot program for controlling the robotic manipulator to perform the treatment procedure.
Adjustable head support
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.
DILATION INSTRUMENT WITH NAVIGATION AND DISTALLY LOCATED FORCE SENSOR
A system includes a dilation catheter and a guide member. The dilation catheter includes a proximal end, a distal end, a dilator, a navigation sensor, and a force sensor. The dilator is positioned proximal to the distal end and is configured to transition between a non-dilated configuration and a dilated configuration. The navigation sensor is positioned distal to the dilator and is configured to cooperate with a guidance system and thereby provide signals indicating a position of the dilation catheter in three-dimensional space. The force sensor is positioned distal to the dilator and is configured to provide signals indicating a force encountered by the force sensor. The dilation catheter is configured to slide relative to the guide member. A distal portion of the guide member is sized and configured to fit in a nasal cavity of a patient.
TRANSPORTABLE AUTONOMOUS DENTAL UNIT
A transportable autonomous dental unit is described, mounted on a base to which side walls are associated in order to create a container of around 4 liters of volume, featuring a dental chair whose column has a compressed air tank, a complete instrument table, a compressor to fill the needs of the pneumatic peripherals and venturi suction device for compressed air, means for connection to a water supply line, a wastewater drainage duct, and a power source, offering the same operation conditions of a complete conventional dental unit.
Spine Assisting Table
The invention relates to an adjustable table for use while laying in a prone position on a body section cushion and includes a knee cushion for leg support. A headrest is provided for securing the head while lying face down, along with a work platform. A detachable foot platform is also provided.
Device pad
Arrangements described herein relate to systems, apparatuses, and methods for a head cradle pad configured to be affixed to a head cradle of a medical device, the head cradle pad includes a first section corresponding to a shape of a top portion of the head cradle, a second section corresponding to a shape of a bottom portion of the head cradle, and a center connection portion connecting the first section and the second section. The first section and the second section are shaped to form spatial gaps when the head cradle pad is in a flat state when the head cradle pad is un-affixed to the head cradle. The first section and the second section are shaped to eliminate the spatial gaps when the head cradle pad is affixed to the concave surface of the head cradle.
Headrest for a procedure chair and procedure chair having a headrest
In an example, a headrest for a procedure chair includes a headrest backing, a cushion coupled to the headrest backing, a rail coupled to the headrest backing and configured to support a diagnostic device, and an adapter coupled to the headrest backing and configured to couple to a procedure chair. At least one component chosen from the rail and the adapter is formed from an austenitic stainless steel material.
Headrest adjustment system
A headrest adjustment system includes a tension block having a threaded aperture extending entirely through the tension block. The tension block is configured to be coupled to a chair. The headrest adjustment system also includes a screw configured to be moved through the threaded aperture along an axis, and a clamp lever pivotally coupled to the tension block. The clamp lever has an inclined surface. The axis intersects the inclined surface at an oblique angle. The headrest adjustment system also includes a headrest tension bracket configured to be coupled to the chair. The headrest tension bracket has a first end and a second end and the second end includes a flange. The clamp lever is configured to contact and press against the flange upon movement of the screw.
