Medical Device For Performing Spinals Or Epidurals
US Patent:
6564801, May 20, 2003
Filed:
Mar 20, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/528847
Inventors:
Simon Jacob Frank - Miami FL 33176
International Classification:
A61G 1500
US Classification:
128845, 5630
Abstract:
A medical device for positioning a patient correctly in the sitting position when performing spinals or epidurals. The medical device is wedge shaped and inflexible. The device can have handles adjacent to the front wall of the wedge or can be used without the handles. The device is used by first placing it on an elevated surface, then having a patient sit on the device so that the patients knees flex at the front and upper juncture of the device. The patient is then instructed to sit upright. By sitting upright, the pelvis will rotate backwards thereby promoting flexion of the lumbar/thoracic spine. On the medical device with handles, the flexion of the lumbar/thoracic spine can be augmented by having the patient push upward, palms up, on the handles. The upward pushing forces will force the lumbar spine posteriorly and further increase thoracic/lumbar flexion. Then either inserting the tip of a spinal needle into the patients spinal space or inserting the tip of an epidural needle into the patients epidural space.
Medical Device For Overcoming Airway Obstruction
US Patent:
7047976, May 23, 2006
Filed:
Jun 30, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/610399
Inventors:
Simon Jacob Frank - Miami FL, US
International Classification:
A61F 13/00
US Classification:
128846, 12820123, 128845, 602 35
Abstract:
A medical device for overcoming upper airway obstruction when a patient is placed in supine position. A cradle receives the patient's head, and the patient's head rests on and is secured to the cradle. Specifically, the head rests upon a first portion. The weight of the head upon the first portion anchors the entire device. A second portion has an adjustable band that generates an upward pull on the patient's chin, thereby opening the patient's upper airway. The first and second portions are generally perpendicular to each other.

Abstract:
A medical device for overcoming airway obstruction featuring a flat rectangular support base with a support frame attached by a pivoting means. A T-band, so named for its shape and the positioning of its three straps, attaches to the support frame when the T-band is placed around the chin of a patient when the support base and support frame are perpendicular. Additionally, an adhesive layer is placed at the junction of the straps of the T-band, the layer configured for contact with a patient's chin.
