  • Publication number: 20150123432
    Abstract: Surgeons everywhere have to stand erect for very long periods of time, whether that be for an entire day of surgeries or for a single, complicated surgery, many of whom develop their own muscular-skeletal disorders. Most if not all Surgeons suffer from chronic back, cervical, lumbar, and neck pain due to their unforgiving postures while performing surgeries and especially during lengthy surgeries. Their arms are often times extended, which multiplies and exacerbates this problem as well as their head, neck and upper body, all of which tax the spinal cord and muscular support systems. Nothing else, no other device or supporting structure exists in this space, market and surgical suite. This invention takes the load off the surgeon and puts the load onto a mechanical device and places the surgeon into the best possible posture and comfort for which to conduct surgery and rest his own body while performing the surgery. It is a whole body ergonomic system for Surgeons.
