Publication number: 20180207044Abstract: An integrated patient platform system and method for performing medical procedures below a patient's body is disclosed. In some embodiments, a superior level surface of an integrated patient platform is configured to support a patient lying in a prone or supine position, and an inferior level surface of the integrated patient platform is configured to support one or more medical procedure components. The superior level surface includes an aperture disposed therethrough. At least a portion of the aperture forms an examination window that is adjustable in size and position and configured to receive a portion of a patient over or in the examination window. A medical procedure component may be positioned on the inferior level surface to contact or otherwise interface with the portion of the patient positioned over or in the examination window.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 6, 2015Publication date: July 26, 2018Applicant: Kona Medical, Inc.Inventors: Arash Sabet, David M. Perozek, Michael Gertner, Jimin Zhang
