A mobile patient examination system includes a carrier, a patient support, and furnishing. The patient support is height adjustable and connected to the carrier. Also, the patient support includes a display and a physiological sensor. In some instances, the carrier is sized to be transported to different locations within a facility. Alternatively, the carrier is sized to be transported to remote, rural, and/or disaster-related locations.

A system and method for actuating controlled stimulation of a patient in a confined medical position helps sooth and entertain a patient receiving medical treatment while resting on a support member, like a dental chair. The system provides a support member, and integrates at least one air actuated animated member, such as a mobile or figurine, proximal to the support member, to enable animated motion by the animated member through pressurized air. Pressurized air causes the animated members to articulate in animated, colorful movements. Audio signals are also generated by the animated member in response to the pressurized air. The animated member can be a mobile or a cartoon character with joints, axes, and limbs that move when engaged by pressurized air. The patient or caregiver control distribution of the pressurized air by manipulating a foot valve and an arm valve to control the animated members.

A surgical table for supporting a patient during a surgical procedure and including a patient support structure, a first support structure, and a second support structure. The patient support structure is configured to support the patient during the surgical procedure and may be operably coupled at a first end to the first support structure and at a second end to the second support structure. The first support structure includes a first column and a first displacement apparatus operably coupling the first column to the first end of the patient support structure.

With an examination table device according to an aspect of the present invention, locking of a traveling unit and locking of a top plate are automatically (independently of an operation of a user) are performed in conjunction with connection between the examination table device and a medical image capturing apparatus, so that it is not necessary for the user to perform operations for the locking of the traveling unit and the locking of the top plate in a case of the connection and the connection release. In addition, there is no concern that the traveling unit is not locked due to operation forgetting, the locking release of the top plate is not in time for an operation timing, or the like. Therefore, the locking states of the traveling unit and the top plate can be reliably controlled.

A rail assembly for a medical examination table. The medical examination table having a main body including a side surface. The rail assembly having a support frame, a connecting rail, and a mount. The support frame having a set of rails. The connecting rail extending from the support frame to a distal end. The connecting rail being couplable to the side surface.

A patient support system includes independently adjustable end columns supporting a centrally hinged, jointed or breaking patient support structure. At least one column includes a powered rotation assembly. The patient support includes at least two sections. A coordinated drive system provides for both upwardly and downwardly breaking or jointed orientations of the two sections in various inclined and tilted positions. Cable, cantilevered and pull-rod systems are included.

The table for performing breast biopsies is characterized by features that enhance patient comfort and facilitate performance of the biopsy. An opening in the table allowing the breast to extend below the table top is formed in a removable insert. An area of the insert includes padding. An alternate insert, having a different diameter opening may be selected based on patient breast size. Another insert having an asymmetrical opening may accommodate the patient's arm when it is desirable to position both the arm and breast of the patient below the table top. The table top is contoured such that symmetrical distal end sections are elevated relative to a central section to support the patient in multiple positions. A removable pad may be placed over the insert. An end portion for padding the hip of the patient is thicker than an end portion for padding the head/neck of the patient.

A medical examination device is provided with a pair of foot support assemblies, a patient support mat, and a U-shaped support frame with an attached pair of legs. Wheel assemblies are attached to the legs and facilitate the transportation of the device to and from a bed whereby the support assemblies, patient support mat, and legs are extended and adjusted to support a patient on the bed to facilitate a medical examination. The foot support assemblies are foldable, and the patient support mat and legs are collapsible so that the device is transported and stored in a small, compact size.

A pump device for use with an operating table in an operating room. The pump device including: a pump for pumping a rinsing liquid through a pump tube, and a controller configured to determine a height adjustment of the operating table in the operating room and control the pump pressure of the pump based on the detected height adjustment.
