Abstract: A golf putting training device (22) attached to the shaft (30) of a putter (14) has a shape that extends out from the shaft (30) and forms an elongated edge (24) that is aligned by a user (10) along the heel (16b) of the putter (14) so that a spacing (38) is formed between the edge (24) and a golf ball (12) adjacent the putter head face (16a) at address. The user (10) moves the putter head (16) along the putting stroke so that the spacing (38) is maintained essential constant throughout the stroke thereby ensuring the putter head face (16a) is maintained perpendicular to the target line (36) during the putting stroke.

Abstract: A restraining garment used with a patient supinely positioned on a tilted operating table has a pair of wrap members that wrap about the upper thighs of the patient adjacent the groin area thereby providing operating access to the entire anterior torso of the supinely positioned patient. The underside of the garment is secured to the operating table and prevents the patient from sliding down the table due to the severe tilt of the table.

Abstract: A U-shaped pillow provides for the maximization of the cross-sectional area of the air passage of the user at the level of the oropharynx. The user's head is extended backwards in the supine position with the natural curvature of the neck being supported by a supine neck resting portion and the user's occiput resting directly against the underlying mattress. Additionally the pillow has elevated lateral head and neck resting portions and sloped transitional neck resting portions, all structured so that when a user rolls between the supine and lateral decubitus positions the user's thoracic and cervical spine are maintained substantially aligned.
