ABSTRACT:
A therapeutic device for supporting the head face down during an operation. The device is comprised of a pillow having a T-shaped void therein conforming to the contours of the face. One or more channels may be cut in the pillow to provide airways or allow insertion of a tube into the patient's mouth. A support structure is also described for use with the pillow. The support structure allows the patient's face to be seen, even while lying down, and consists of a plate attached to the end of a table by clamps, having a mirror below whose orientation may be adjusted.
