A surgical operation table S including a table 10 movable in a horizontal direction to a base 2 includes a slide mechanism 20 that moves the table 10 in the horizontal direction, and the slide mechanism 20 includes a rack 21a extending in a longitudinal direction of the table 10, a driving gear 26, a driven gear 27 and an idler gear 28 that are meshed with the rack 21a and rotate integrally, and an actuator 23 that supplies a rotational driving force to at least one of the gears 26 to 28.

Surgical leg positioner

A surgical leg positioner capable of bending the knee in varus or valgus while simultaneously distracting the tibia from the femur, the leg positioner having a thigh clamp module, a swing arm module connected to the thigh clamp module in a manner that offsets a joint axis laterally to the side of the knee of the patient so as not to damage the opposite compartment of the knee when bent in varus or valgus, and a rail lock assembly to lock the knee in varus or valgus. The swing arm module also distracts the knee simultaneously when the knee is bent in varus or valgus. The swing arm module also permits flexion and extension of the knee at the knee's natural flexion-extension axis. The surgical leg positioner also utilizes a thigh brace that properly aligns the leg on the surgical leg positioner.

Limb positioning system

A limb positioning system includes a clamp assembly, a pylon and bar assembly, a sled assembly, and a limb positioning assembly. The clamp assembly is configured to attach to a bed rail of a surgical table and to accept a pylon connected to a bar. The pylon may have a plurality of pylon bars that are secured by the clamp assembly. A base bar may extend from the pylon, and may be attachable to an extension bar to provide a longer track along which the sled assembly may slide. The sled assembly may be biased to be locked with respect to the base bar. The limb holding assembly may include a boot coupled to the sled via a connector near the heel. The connector may be tapered and insertable into a correspondingly tapered section of a ball that sits within the sled assembly, the ball being capable of polyaxial motion.

ANTERIOR BOOT FOR HIP DISTRACTION
20190343704 · 2019-11-14 · ·

A surgical boot system and sleeve accessory for hip distraction. The surgical boot system includes an L-shaped rigid shell having a proximal portion and a distal portion. A soft liner is attached to the rigid shell and extends along at least one of the proximal portion and the distal portion. The surgical boot system also includes at least one strap assembly (which can be a plurality of strap assemblies) extending around the rigid shell. A load transmission hoop is connected to and extends around the distal portion of the rigid shell and an attachment point is connected to the load transmission hoop. The rigid shell is pivotable about the attachment point. Specifically, the attachment point is configured to interface with a hip distractor apparatus in a way that allows for multiple degrees of freedom.

PATIENT STABILIZATION, INFECTION BARRIER, PRESSURE ULCER PREVENTION AND EQUIPMENT PROTECTION DEVICE AND METHODS OF USE
20190307626 · 2019-10-10 ·

The present disclosure provides a patient positioning device and methods of using such a device that allows for the easy securing of the device to the operating room table or hospital bed, a comfortable surface for patients to rest on during their diagnostic, therapeutic or surgical procedure, that helps reduce the likelihood of developing pressure ulcers, protects the patient by providing an infectious barrier, helps protects the patient from electrical injury by creating a non-conductive barrier between the patient the metal operating table, and protects the operating room table and equipment with an integrated, impermeable barrier to prevent blood, other bodily fluids and other fluids such as intravenous fluids, blood products and irrigation from soiling the operating or procedure table and nearby equipment. The device overcomes several challenges that exist with current devices and methods and is simple, disposable, and cost-effective. It allows for easier, faster and safer patient positioning, improved infection control, lower risk of electrical injury, improved protection from pressure ulcer formation, less waste compared to current options in a single, one-package solution. Additionally, a leg portion of the device can include an inflatable member which serves as a Sequential Compression Device which can be repeatedly inflated/deflated to facilitate circulation and prevent formation of blood clots.

20190290525 · 2019-09-26 · ·

A multi-jointed, upper extremity radial artery procedure support device and associated warming sleeve is disclosed. The support device may function like a human arm and is designed to support both right-sided and left sided interventions. The multi-jointed radial arm support device may allow flexion and extension of a patient's arm at the patient's associated elbow and wrist. The arm-warming sleeve may apply gentle warmth to the patient's arm during a procedure to induce vasodilation of the radial artery, and eliminate a need for vasoactive drugs during radial artery procedures.
