Abstract: A cushion device is configured to be positioned upon a tray of a medical instrument stand such as a Mayo stand. The cushion device includes an upper portion, a front portion that connects to a front side of the upper portion and extends downward therefrom, and first and second side portions that connect to respective first and second longitudinal sides of the upper portion and extend downward therefrom. The inner surfaces of the upper portion, front portion, and side portions define a hollow receptacle that is configured in size and shape to receive a tray of a medical instrument stand so that the cushion device can be selectively positioned on the medical instrument stand.

Abstract: A modular device is configured to provide different levels of knee extension to a patient by being moveable between an assembled or “rest” configuration and a detached or “therapy” configuration. The device includes a proximal section with an inclined upper surface and a separate distal section with an inclined upper surface. When attached, the proximal and distal sections form a single continuous incline for supporting a patient's leg. At least one of the sections also includes an ankle supporting cavity that holds the patient's ankle and heel and provides greater stretching/extension of the patient's knee.

Abstract: An apparatus for supporting an extremity during tissue debridement and capturing fluid and tissue resulting from tissue debridement includes an extremity-supporting base. The apparatus may further include a barrier shroud. The apparatus can be used in tissue irrigation and debridement procedures to contain and control drainage of fluid and tissue. The apparatus supports a patient extremity, such as an arm or a leg. The base has a length, proximal end (i.e., nearest the patient's body), and distal end (i.e., farthest from the patient's body). The shroud can have a top portion, bottom portion, and shroud drainage opening. A method includes debriding tissue from a patient extremity supported by the base and at least partially enclosed within the barrier shroud, which acts as a shield for fluid and tissue emanating from the extremity. Fluid and tissue exit the shroud through a shroud drainage opening.

A method includes debriding tissue from a patient extremity while supported by the base and at least partially enclosed within the barrier shroud, which acts as a shield for fluid and tissue emanating from the extremity. Fluid and tissue exits the shroud through a shroud drainage opening.

Abstract: An apparatus for supporting an extremity during tissue irrigation and debridement and containing and capturing fluid and tissue debris resulting therefrom includes an extremity-supporting base and barrier shroud. The apparatus can be used to control drainage of fluid and tissue debris during irrigation and debridement. The apparatus supports and encloses a patient extremity, such as an arm or a leg. The base has a length, proximal end (i.e., nearest the patient's body), and distal end (i.e., farthest from the patient's body). The base may comprise an open-cell foam that is non-collapsible to provide a support surface with a fixed length. The shroud has a top portion, bottom portion, and shroud drainage opening. The shroud can be selectively moveable between a first position in which the support surface is unobstructed to facilitate placement of an extremity thereon and a second position in the shroud at least partially encloses the extremity.

Abstract: A productivity tool (for a medical clinic, veterinary clinic, or even other non-medical environments) includes at least four primary aspects: (1) embedding photographic or other records in patient records in an encounter-centric manner such that the records are associated to the applicable encounter within a particular visit; (2) using an array of indices for rapid access to a record within a large body of compressed data without requiring decompression of the entire data; (3) providing efficient and accurate prescription writing via a customizable database by which a physician sets up common prescription scenarios (such as the dosage, the number of refills, the frequency, etc.) and these scenarios populate a prescription screen; and (4) synchronizing a repository across multiple mobile computing devices using an administered identifier space to track identifier ranges reserved to the mobile computing devices.
