Birth assisting module and birthing furniture
A birth assisting module for being arranged in a region of a birth furniture where a pelvis of a mother is intended to be placed during birth, includes a pelvis mobilization support, a movement mechanics and a drive unit. The pelvis mobilization support is coupled to the movement mechanics. The movement mechanics is adapted to induce a controlled cadenced displacement of the pelvis mobilization support. The controlled cadenced displacement moves the pelvis mobilization support by at least 1 cm or at least 3 cm and preferably by at least 5 cm. The drive unit is connected to the movement mechanics to actuate the movement mechanics.
PELVIC CRADLE
A pelvic cradle that include a patient positioning device designed to optimize pelvic tilt during obstetric and gynecologic procedures. The pelvic cradle enhances patient safety and outcomes by increasing the anterior-posterior diameter of the pelvis, facilitating better access and visualization during gynecologic exams, and supporting optimal fetal head expulsion during vaginal deliveries. The pelvic cradle may comprise a pelvic portion increasing in height from a proximal portion distally and may further comprise first and second arms extending distally therefrom to a distal end. A recess, configured in width and size to accommodate the sacral diameter of a standard anatomical woman, may be disposed between the first and second arms. The pelvic cradle may also comprise ergonomic channels, indicators for precise alignment, and a customized barrier cover, providing a simple, dignified, and effective solution for obstetric and gynecological practices.
Medical procedure facilitation system
A medical procedure facilitation system for use with a bed. The system has a pair of assist arms secured to the bed that may rotate in relation to the bed along a path of rotation. A spring assembly is connected to the assist arms for helping raise a patient's legs. Supportive thigh pads associated with the assist arms give support under the knees and thighs and adjust their angle to accommodate the size and position of the patient. Hand grips are mounted on the support arms that allow the patient to contribute to lifting forces.
