According to the present disclosure, a surgical patient support provides support to a patient. The surgical patient support may include configuration to accommodate various patient body positions to provide a variety of access to the patient's body.

The present invention is an arm restraint used in dialysis primarily when the fistula is located at or near the elbow. The restraint supports the arm and allows a limited amount of movement of the restrained arm to mitigate discomfort during a dialysis procedure, while simultaneously allowing unrestricted blood flow in the supported arm. The restraint includes an adjustable fastener that allows the restraint to be attached to the upper arm in a loose and adjustable manner. The restraint includes a cover at its lower end that allows a limited degree of arm movement. It also includes an open upper area that enables access to the arm for placement and adjustment of dialysis syringes and associated tubing.

An apparatus for moving a patient on a pad and holding the pad in place on a surgical table. An upper member and a lower member having wings extending from opposite sides are configured and arranged to secure the position of the arms. In this position the arm has been securely wrapped without use of the patient's body weight, and the arm can be easily unwrapped by reversing the steps above, without the necessity of repositioning the patient (to get their body weight off of the device or a draw sheet), for access to the arm during the surgical procedure. Access may be necessary for anesthesia monitoring lines, invasive arterial lines, non-invasive blood pressure cuffs, SPO2 finger probes, and intravenous lines needed for medications and fluid delivery.

A patient positioning device including a pivot rod configured with a first portion extending in a first direction, and a second portion extending in a second direction substantially laterally from a top end of the first portion, a clamp portion configured to be coupled to a portion of a medical bed, and having a receiving portion configured to receive and clamp the first portion of the pivot rod in place such that the pivot rod is adjustable along and about an axis of the first direction when not clamped, and a swivel plate coupled to a distal end of the second portion of the pivot rod and configured such that the swivel plate is rotatable about another axis offset from, and substantially parallel to, the axis of the first direction, wherein the swivel plate is configured to provide support to maintain a patient in a desired position.

A surgical frame and method for use thereof is provided. The surgical frame is capable of reconfiguration before, during, or after surgery. The surgical frame includes a main beam that can be rotated, raised/lowered, and tilted upwardly/downwardly to afford positioning and repositioning of a patient supported thereon. The surgical frame also includes a reconfigurable upper leg support for supporting portions of the upper legs, the hips, and the lower back of the patient to facilitate positioning and repositioning there during surgery. The upper leg support via reconfiguration thereof can accommodate patients of different sizes, can provide flexure of the patient's lumbar spine to facilitate surgical access thereto, and can prevent unwanted torsion of a patient's spine during such reconfiguration.

A surgical frame and a radiation-mitigation system are provided. The surgical frame can be capable of reconfiguration before, during, or after surgery, and 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. Furthermore, use of imaging techniques to facilitate imaging of anatomical structures of a patient before, during, and after surgery can be desirous. An emitter of such imaging techniques can be positioned under the main beam of the surgical frame. The radiation-mitigation system can serve to intercept/block and mitigate at least some of the scatter of the electromagnetic radiation from the emitter.

A surgical table for prone and lateral positioning of a patient, where the table includes a base and a patient support structure. The base may include a head and a foot end support structure. The patient support structure may include an upper body support structure cantilevered off of the head end support structure at a first end and a lower body support structure cantilevered off of the foot end support structure at a second end. The upper body support structure may include a chest pad. The lower body support structure may include a lower body translation and rotation structure and at least one pelvic pad supported thereon.

A patient positioning device for positioning a patient's arm in preparation for or during a surgical procedure. The device includes an arm support member and a strap, with the strap extending longitudinally relative to the arm support member. The arm support member includes an arm support surface and a bottom surface, with the arm support surface including a primary surface and secondary supports. The arm support member includes an arm support surface The secondary supports are configured to be wrapped about a patient's forearm. The strap has a fixed end fixed to the bottom surface of the arm support member and a free end extending longitudinally in a distal direction relative to the arm support member. The supporting member is configured to receive and retain the forearm of the patient in order to position the patient's arm using only the arm support device.

The arm-casting stand may comprise a base, an elbow cushion, a horizontal armature, an arm support, and a vertical armature. The arm-casting stand may be adapted to support and position an arm of a patient while a medical procedure is performed. The arm-casting stand may eliminate the need for a staff member to manually support the arm and may enhance the comfort of the patient. The base may be placed upon a work surface adjacent to the patient. The elbow cushion may be adapted for resting a portion of the arm upon. The elbow cushion may be held at a specific position relative to the base by the horizontal armature. The arm support may be adapted for elevating a portion of the arm. The arm support may be held at a specific position relative to the base by the vertical armature.

A surgical support apparatus for supporting and positioning a patient's limb or an instrument during surgical procedures. The apparatus consists of an adjustable structural component which houses a separate hydraulic system used for locking and unlocking the structural apparatus. The structural component includes three lockable joints and two rigid support arms. Each joint houses a hydraulic piston and a locking ring. Hydraulic pressure is supplied to the joints by an electric motor and pump and is controlled by an electric circuit, pressure sensors and valves. When hydraulic pressure is applied, the pistons are activated, locking the joints. Hydraulic pressure can also be released to unlock the joints through a user control circuit. The structural component also includes a universal rail clamp to attach the device to a support structure and a distal quick connect for attachment of accessory devices.
