ABSTRACT:
A device for use with a patient on a medical procedure table or the like for locating a surgical drape, comprising a mobile head cushion and a drape stand. The head cushion is formed from a foam material. The cushion has a first surface for placement of the cushion on the table and an opposite surface having positioning for locating a patient's head in a predetermined location on the table. The cushion further is adapted to locate a drape stand with respect to the predetermined location. The drape stand for receiving the surgical drape is being formed from a plastic, hollow tube having two ends for cooperative engagement with the cushion and a length equal to about twice the desired height plus the width of the stand. The tube has two hinges formed by radially cutting partially through the periphery of the tube, each of the hinges being spaced from an end of the tube by the desired height and spaced from each other by the width.
