ABSTRACT:
A support device having a flexible, non-elastic base sheet which can be positioned upon the flat surface of a bed and a plurality of separate inflatable cushions each secured along one edge to the base sheet so that said cushions provide support for the buttock and hip area of the patient as well as the legs of the patient, the cushions being individually inflatable in order to normally provide an air cushion for the patient and to raise the patient into position for use of a bedpan or into other desirable orientations. Two of the support devices can be attached together to provide support for the patient's back and shoulders in addition to the patient's buttock, hip and leg area.
