A disposable cover used to protect preexisting affixed safety straps on medical equipment. The cover includes: 2 protective panels and hook and loop fasteners on the inside for securing the cover to the preexisting affixed strap and hook and loop fasteners on the outer surface to allow the cover to secure to the opposing cover. This disposable protective cover is slipped over the preexisting affixed safety straps that are attached to the medical equipment prior to being used to secure a patients' body/limb to the medical equipment for a procedure, allowing the strap to be protected from infectious fluids.

Realized is a pedal mechanism that does not lock and does not provide an operation feeling unless operated in a determined order. The pedal mechanism has first and second pedals 105 and 106, first and second plates 108 and 109, and a locking bar 115. The radius of the second plate 109 is smaller than that of the first plate 108, and the second plate does not come into contact with the locking bar in a state where a circular-arc region of the first plate supports the locking bar 115. Therefore, the second pedal does not give an operation feeling even when stepped on, and the second plate cannot be locked. In a locked state where the locking bar is located in a cutout region of the first plate, the locking bar contacts the second plate, the second pedal provides an operation feeling, and the second plate can be locked.

A securing element for securing a spindle in a bushing, in particular for a medical stand device, includes a supporting portion configured to arrange the securing element in a predefined axial position on a supporting apparatus of the stand device, and an engagement portion configured to interact with a spindle rotatably supportable about an axis of rotation in the supporting apparatus, or a pin of the stand device, to secure the spindle or pin in a predefined axial position relative to the supporting apparatus rotatably within the supporting apparatus. The securing element can be supported in at least one radial position on the supporting apparatus, in particular in a mounting preparation position and/or a securing position, wherein the engagement portion is configured to interact with the spindle or the pin by engagement in the radial direction, in particular in the securing position. The securing element may also be secured in several radial positions and comprise coupling portions that are formed correspondingly. Also disclosed are components correspondingly formed to the securing element, in particular a supporting apparatus, a cover for the supporting apparatus, and a coupling element; and a securing system, or a securing mechanism, or a mounting set each comprising at least one securing element according to the invention.

An anatomy table for use in autopsies and dissections comprises a base and an immersion storage tank arranged in the base. The anatomy table further comprises a dissection lid arranged on the base, wherein the dissection lid covers the immersion storage tank in its closed position. The table also comprises a hinge secured between the dissection lid and a top edge of the base, wherein the dissection lid rotates about the hinge between a first and second position, wherein the first position allows for access to the body stored in the anatomy table immersion storage tank while the second or closed position of the dissection lid allows for dissecting to occur directly on top of the anatomy table.

Products and methods for producing products which comprise polyethylene and inorganic minerals for a single layer plastic composition.

A radiation monitoring system includes a patient support apparatus. A radiation sensor assembly is operably coupled to the patient support apparatus. The radiation sensor assembly includes a radiation sensor and a first controller. The radiation sensor senses radiation data corresponding to a radiation dose received by a patient. A management system includes a second controller that stores a patient profile database. The second controller is communicatively coupled with the first controller. The first controller communicates the radiation data to the second controller for storage in the patient profile database to monitor the radiation dose received by the patient.

An anesthetic equipment storage and waste air management module configured to housing electronic and electromechanical surgical equipment including a system to measure and record administration of one or more IV medications or fluids for IV administration. The module can include a housing having a lower section and a tower-like upper section, wherein the lower section is configured to house unrelated waste heat-producing electronic and electromechanical surgical equipment. The module can also include a cowling that substantially confines waste heat generated by the unrelated waste heat-producing electronic and electromechanical surgical equipment, and can include a system for measuring and recording the administration of the one or more IV medications and fluids.

A shroud guard is provided for protecting a height adjustment mechanism used to raise and lower the height of an operating room table. The shroud guard includes a support frame secured to a table base of the operating room table. The support frame includes a bracket with an attachment member and an upstanding shield support secured to the attachment member. The attachment member is secured to the table base via a fastener to inhibit movement along the table base. A shield is removably secured to the upstanding shield support and extends transversely over the table base of the operating room table and across the height adjustment mechanism to inhibit foreign objects from contacting the height adjustment mechanism.
