<p>A patient support system that includes an articulated platform (106) supported by a universal joint (156) supported by a pair of hydraulic support arms (130, 138) and a pair of lesser hydraulic support arms (142, 144) spaced from the universal joint. The platform is formed by a plurality of hydraulicly driven hinged panels (164) which is capable of assuming a number of configurations such as standing and sitting positions. A computer controlled cushion system (110) formed by a plurality of cushions, a valve (320) and manifold (328, 360) can cycle between high and low cushion pressures. The bed platform sides have hinged and lowerable restraining members (220) which move to provide access to the patient, they also can support a canopy (256) or tension weight (258). A pendulum arm (300) is attachable to restraining member (220) for supporting auxiliary equipment. A sanitary system (534) for removing body wastes and a restraint system (600) which can go over the patient is also part of the cushion system.</p> |
