A spine board is provided having a skull tong anchor assembly slidably attached to the spine board where a push rod mechanism is used to apply traction force on the skull tong anchor assembly. The push rod mechanism includes a strain gauge device so that the traction force can be selected and monitored. The spine board can also include a mattress that can be attached to the spine board where the mattress includes integrated shoulder straps that can be partially detached therefrom to secure a patient to the spine board.

Diverter for use in therapeutic massage system
11607363 · 2023-03-21 · ·

A diverter is provided for use in directing airflow from an input port to selected output ports. The diverter allows for operation without valves, and is able to provide an air signal to selected output ports in a predetermined manner. The diverter having a rotatable member, or swivel valve, directing air signals to the desired output port depending on the rotational position thereof. The diverter is driven by a controlled actuator or motor, to thus control the manner in which air signals are provided to a plurality of output ports in a controlled manner.

Combined Lung Mobilizer and Ventilator
20220331201 · 2022-10-20 ·

An articulated patient support platform cyclically expands and contracts a patient's lung volume, to both support breathing and mobilize lung tissue. In the lung expansion phase, a change in angle between a leg and hip supporting portion and a chest and head supporting portion causes extension the patient's spine, which increases the distance between the patient's sternum and spine. In the lung contraction phase, the reverse change in this angle causes flexion the patient's spine, which decreases the distance between the sternum and spine. A cycle of increase and decrease in spine-sternum distance expands and contracts lung volume in the manor of a bellows. Motorized operation of the platform thereby provides non-invasive natural breathing support. A corollary benefit of this lung expansion/contraction cycle is mobilization of lung tissue, which is beneficial in reducing post-operative pneumonia risk.
