Lounge Doctor Leg Rest (Prod 8800)
About Lounge Doctor Leg Rest (Prod 8800)
Developed by a vascular surgeon who noted that when an order was written to elevate a patient's legs, patients were often found in ridiculous positions. He also noted that, although physicians recommended leg elevation all of the time, they never gave patients specifics on how best to do this. After some early studies and review of the medical literature, he was able to determine the ideal position for patients to elevate their legs (View website and refer to "Ask the Doc - What is the best way to elevate your legs?"). Using this information, a product was developed which positioned the legs in this ideal position. An early prototype was made and patients were allowed to try the leg rest. Initial feedback was overwhelmingly positive and the product was patented. Although the product was designed for the treatment of patients with venous and lymphatic disease, an unexpected observation was that the device was incredibly relaxing. The only "complaint" was that it was so relaxing that patients couldn't stay awake when using it.
