ABSTRACT:
A hip lifter or pelvic support for supporting and positioning the pelvic portion of a patient in an elevated position for examination and other medical procedures. The support is characterized by a forward inclined ramp-like portion which facilitates placement of the support under a prone patient and supports a patient's lower back, an elevated concave platform surface extending rearwardly from the upper edge of the ramp for receiving and supporting the patient's buttocks, and a central rearwardly facing indentation or recess at the rear end of the support which provides clearance for a medical instrument, such as a speculum, required in the examination or other medical procedure performed on the patient.
