Abstract: A base is mounted to a frame and a pair of foldable basket sides are mounted to the base and to a rim above the base. A pair of basket ends are displaceably mounted the rim. The sides are folded and the ends are displaced to an upright position to cooperate with the base and the rim for forming a rigid basket. The sides are folded and the ends are displaced so that the rim is adjacent the frame, whereby the rim receives a flat surface so as to render the apparatus in a table top configuration. Legs are provided for clamping the apparatus to supporting bars on a wheelchair or like equipment, whereby the independence, productivity and comfort of a user in a variety of environments is maximized.

Abstract: An oxygen tank holder of a suitable fabric material includes a pouch for holding an oxygen tank, and which pouch is strapped at its upper and lower ends to the back of a wheelchair. The straps are adjustable to accommodate various size wheelchairs and so that the pouch can be displaced away from the center of the wheelchair to avoid interfering with the back of the user of the chair, as is desireable.

Abstract: An arrangement including a suction pump, a pipette, an application tip and a plurality of ligating rings which are carried on the application tip. The application tip is disposed in cooperative relation with the pipette so that the ligating rings may be transferred from the adapter tip to the pipette while being gradually stretched. The pipette is disposed in an incision exposing the ovarian sack of a small mammalian creature, whereupon a suction or vacuum is generated by the pump to capture the ovarian sack, after which a ligating ring is slipped off of the pipette and contracts to ligate said captured sack. This enables resorption of the ligated ovarian sack into the creature and stabilization of hormonal activity as is desired for experimental purposes.

Abstract: A raised superimposed toilet seat is adapted to fit on a conventional toilet seat and is contoured to particularly meet the needs of patients who have undergone unilateral or bilateral total hip replacement procedures. The seat is contoured so that when the patient is seated thereon, the patient's legs are kept adducted in the proper position, ensuring that the patient's hips are placed with the proper amount of hip flexion and abduction to prevent hip dislocation.

Abstract: A device for holding dialysis bags includes a hollow funnel-like member for holding dialysis bags of various sizes. A hanger arrangement extends from the funnel-like member, whereby said member carrying a dialysis bag may be suspended within a vessel or the like without additional support. A cap is secured to the funnel-like member to seal said member.
