Problems solved by technology

[0004] Using devices or supports to hold the patient in a sitting position can cause problems during imaging
Internal stringers, supports, or other structures may limit imaging and / or create artifacts in patient images
This limitation and artifacts can lead to false positive / negative results during medical imaging, leading to misdiagnosis and / or inappropriate treatment

Embodiment Construction

[0018] The description of the preferred embodiments is intended to be read in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, which are considered a part of the entire written description of the invention. For the sake of clarity and conciseness, the drawings are not necessarily to scale and certain features of the invention may be shown exaggerated in scale or in somewhat schematic form. In this specification, relative terms such as "horizontal", "vertical", "upward", "downward", "top", "bottom" and their derivatives (such as "horizontally", "downwardly", "upwardly", etc.), should be construed to mean the orientation described at the time of discussion or shown in the drawings. These relative terms are for convenience of description and generally are not intended to require a particular orientation. Terms including "inwardly" versus "outwardly," "longitudinally" versus "transversely," etc. are to be interpreted relative to each other or relative to an axis of elongation or an ax...

Abstract

An inflatable patient support includes a top panel defining a first perimeter and a bottom panel defining a second perimeter. The second perimeter of the bottom panel is coupled to the first perimeterof the top panel. An internal wall is coupled between the top panel and the bottom panel to define a first chamber and a second chamber. The internal wall defines at least one passage therethrough that allows fluid communication between the first chamber and the second chamber. The first chamber and the second chamber are inflatable.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application Serial No. 62 / 288,161, entitled "HOVERTECH TWO CHAMBER INFLATABLESUPPORT," filed January 28, 2016, the disclosure of which is incorporated by reference in its entirety This article. Background technique [0003] Positioning patients for medical imaging and other procedures presents risks to both patients and caregivers. The patient must be placed in a sitting position and the device inserted to hold the patient in the sitting position. Often, this requires the caregiver to lift the patient, which can result in injury to the caregiver or require multiple caregivers. Moving and / or readjusting a patient with some impairment can also aggravate this impairment. [0004] Using devices or supports to hold the patient in a sitting position can cause problems during imaging. Internal stringers, supports, or other structures may limit imaging and / or create art...
