A surgery apparatus includes a resilient foam pillow having an arrangement of labeled tabs for holding lines leading to/from a patient during and after surgery. A central cutout area in the pillow accommodates the patient's eyes, nose and mouth when in the prone position. Left and right channels in the foam pillow extend from a top edge of the pillow to the central cutout area for holding a breathing tube system. The foam pillow further includes a removably attachable chest support and opposite shoulder supports. A multipurpose holder device for placement on the patient's head has an arrangement of straps for securing an eye shield, a bite block and ventilator tube securing straps on the patient during surgery.

A multifunctional nursing mattress, which includes a mattress main body. The mattress body includes a plurality of inflatable bags arranged in parallel with each other, a mattress cover for wrapping the plurality of inflatable bags, a back lifting inflatable bag, a left-side overturning inflatable bag, a right-side overturning inflatable bag and a foot lifting inflatable bag arranged under the mattress main body. The anti-bedsore mattress of the present invention has the advantages of simple structure and reasonable design, and can realize the functions of back lifting, turning over and foot lifting, which is advantageous for the user to adjust the body posture and has the preventive effect on bedsore.

A motorized hospital bed assembly includes a bed frame that is positionable in an open position to define an opening in the bed frame. A motor is coupled to the bed frame and a drive unit is engaged to the motor. The drive unit urges the bed frame between the open position and the closed position. A toilet support is coupled to the bed frame and a portable toilet is positioned on the toilet support. The portable toilet is aligned with the opening when the bed frame is positioned in the open position to be employed by a patient while the patient is lying on the bed frame. A remote control is positionable on the bed frame and the remote control is in wireless communication with the drive unit to remotely control the drive unit.

An apparatus for reorienting a person includes a wrap having a first lateral portion and a second lateral portion, the first lateral portion and the second lateral portion being releasably securable to one another along an anterior region of the wrap between lateral sides of the person and along a posterior region of the wrap between the lateral sides of the person via a set of fasteners. Each of the lateral portions are dimensioned to extend around a corresponding one of the lateral sides of the person and having anterior and posterior edges that are dimensioned to extend at most partway across to an opposite one of the lateral sides of the person. The wrap is made from flexible materials and dimensioned to extend at least from below knees of the person to above the elbows of the person and snugly retain the person therein.

A fail-safe release mechanism for use with patient positioning support apparati having a base structure and a patient support structure, to prevent collapse of the patient support during disconnection of the patient support structure from the base structure.

Devices, systems, and methods for patient support include arrangement of a patient support top for rotation and a rotation lockout assembly for selectively blocking against rotation of the patient support top.

The invention relates to the technical field of electric vehicles, and discloses a transformable electric vehicle. The transformable electric vehicle comprises a chassis, a rear wheel group, a front wheel group located in front of the rear wheel group, transverse retraction rods which can contract or stretch and are arranged transversely, and longitudinal retraction rods which can contract or stretch and are arranged longitudinally; rails are arranged on the lower end face of the chassis, and extend in the length direction of the chassis; one end of the transverse retraction rods is movably connected with the rails, and the other end of the transverse retraction rods is attached to the rear wheel group, the lower ends of the longitudinal retraction rods are fixed to the rear wheel group, and the upper ends of the longitudinal retraction rods are movably connected with the rails; a cushion unit and sliding rails are arranged on the upper end face of the chassis, and the lower end of the cushion unit is attached; the upper end of the cushion unit is movably connected with the sliding rails, and the cushion unit comprises a seat plate for drivers to sit; and when the upper end of the cushion unit is located at the lower parts of the sliding rails, the seat plate is arranged horizontally. The form of the electric vehicle can be switched among different modes according to the requirements of a driver, so that different requirements are met, and the driving experience and safety of the driver are improved.

In general, various surgical patient positioners and methods for using the same are provided. For example, a surgical patient support is provided for use during anterior hip replacement surgery. The surgical patient support can have a body support configured to receive an upper body of a patient thereon and one or more extremity supports configured to receive one or more patient extremities thereon.

A lift, a head support, and methods for use thereof for use with a surgical frame are provided. The lift and the head support can be used with the surgical frame that is capable of reconfiguration before, during, or after surgery. The surgical frame can include a main beam that can be rotated, raised/lowered, and tilted upwardly/downwardly to afford positioning and repositioning of a patient supported thereon, and the lift and the head support can be used in lifting the patient from a table/gurney and positioning the patient with respect to the main beam.

Introduced here are pressure-mitigation apparatuses able to mitigate the pressure applied to a human body by the surface of an object. A controller device can be fluidically coupled to a pressure-mitigation device that includes a series of selectively inflatable chambers. When a pressure-mitigation device is placed between a human body and a surface, the controller device can continuously, intelligently, and autonomously circulate air through the chambers of the pressure-mitigation device. As further discussed below, the controller device may cause the chambers to be selectively inflated, deflated, or any combination thereof. Such an approach is useful in a variety of contexts. For example, pressure-mitigation apparatuses may be used to improve treatment of patients suffering from respiratory illnesses and patients who are partially or completely immobilized for extended durations (e.g., as part of a medical procedure).
