An automatic massage portable massage table, and belongs to the technical field of massage apparatuses. The automatic massage portable massage table includes a rigid planner surface, a cushioned pad, an upholstery cover, table legs, long leg supports, short leg supports, a cable system, a headrest cradle, a headrest cushion, and a plurality of airbags. According to the automatic massage portable massage table of the present disclosure, a user can command a circuit board to supply power to an air pump and a plurality of air valves through buttons of a controller. After being powered on, the air pump supplies air to the air valves. Meanwhile, the circuit board controls, according to a pre-stored program, the air valves to achieve air supply and air release, thus controlling the airbags to be inflated and deflated.

INFLATABLE HEAD SUPPORT

The invention relates to a stabilising head support for use by a patient during MRI scanning. The head support includes a shell and an inflatable bladder that is located at least partially within the shell. During use, the shell is located within an MRI magnet and the bladder is inflated about the patients head to help hold the head steady during imaging.

A system and method are disclosed for a patient positioning device for beam radiation therapy and radiological imaging. The system includes a base and a patient support surface coupled to the base, and the patient support surface includes a lower patient support hingedly coupled to the base and an upper support hingedly coupled to the lower patient support. The system also includes a substantially flat hinge that forms a continuous upper surface with an upper support surface of the lower patient support and the lower patient support.

HEAD STABILIZATION SYSTEMS AND METHODS

A head stabilization system including a head restraint mechanism and a head harness configured to engage a head of a patient. The head restraint mechanism is configured to be operatively disposed on a patient support device and includes a generally vertically upstanding arcuate tilt guide. The head harness is releasably attachable to and at least partially supported by the head restraint mechanism. The head harness is selectively repositionable generally vertically relative to the tilt guide. The head restraint mechanism is configured to stabilize the head harness relative to the patient support device. The head restraint mechanism is configured to selectively allow lateral flexion of a neck of the patient, lateral rotation of the head of the patient, and extension and flexion of the neck of the patient.

System, apparatus and method for patient positioning prior to, during and/or after medical procedures

A system for positioning a patient before, during or after a medical procedure can include an arm assembly having a proximal end, an opposing distal end, and at least one joint therebetween. The joint can be configured to permit the distal end of the arm assembly to move with respect to the proximal end of the arm assembly. The proximal end of the arm assembly can be configured to be fixed with respect to a surgical table. The system can also include a ball joint mechanism attached to the distal end of the arm assembly and to a head support configured to support a patient's head. The ball joint mechanism can include a ball joint and a motor. Activation of the motor can permit or prevent movement of the ball joint.

Kyphoplasty system and method

A kyphoplasty system includes various instruments which can be selectively used in a surgical theater (e.g., during a surgical operation on a patient) or a surgical training environment. The kyphoplasty system can include one or more of a kyphoplasty apparatus, a prone table mat, a connector system, a bone introducer needle, and a biopsy device. The kyphoplasty system may also include a training system for use in the training environment.

SUPPORTING ARRANGEMENT FOR A PATIENT IN A PRONE POSITION
20230118957 · 2023-04-20 ·

A supporting system is provided for a patient in a prone position, especially for patients that are intubated and/or mechanically ventilated. The supporting arrangement ensures proper posture of the patient so as to prevent damages caused by prolonged lying in the prone position. The arrangement includes a kit of separate modules (10 - 40, 50sx, 50dx - 90sx, 90dx) for containing, pushing, supporting, and unloading distinct body segments of the patient’s body. The modules are freely positionable and orientable with respect to one another on an external supporting surface, such as a mattress. The supporting arrangement provides for a sub-arrangement intended for supporting the patient’s head and comprises modules for the head (10 -40) which make it possible to effectively support the user’s head in a neutral position as well as in a position turned to the side.

20230066826 · 2023-03-02 ·

Various embodiments of a system and associated method for a surgical positioning apparatus for supporting a patient in supine, lateral, kidney and prone position are disclosed herein.

Infant stabilizer

The invention relates to an infant positioning device for stabilizing and maintaining an infant in a fixed position for a lumbar puncture procedure. The device consists of a frame with openings for the infant's face and abdomen to support the infant in the proper position for the procedure and allow for unimpeded ventilation, a component of the frame to secure and stabilize the infant within the frame to prevent movement during the procedure, and an attachment stand to the frame that allows the frame to be free-standing.

PAD ASSEMBLY, SYSTEM, METHOD OF PRE-LOAD POSITIONING OF PATIENT FOR MEDICAL PROCEDURE AND KIT
20230113846 · 2023-04-13 · ·

A pad assembly, system and method of securing a patient onto an operating table when the patient is in the Trendelenburg position. The pad assembly and system is used to support and hold a patient on a medical procedure table during a medical procedure performed while the table, and thus the patient lying thereon, is in an inclined position, such as the Trendelenburg position. The pad assembly and system has characteristics which promote improved securing to eliminate shifting and/or sliding due to gravitational forces when the patient's body is in the Trendelenburg position, as well as promote a secure holding of the patient in a desired position on the table, in order to minimize injury to the patient. The pad assembly and system further has improved channels to allow for drainage of fluids that may otherwise be trapped between the patient's body and the OR Table during the surgical procedure.
