Abstract

The invention relates to a leg supporting aid comprising, in plan view, a main body having a longitudinal direction (L) and a transverse direction (Q). The longitudinal direction (L) has a larger extension than the transverse direction (Q). The main body has at least three elevation portions (10, 11, 12, 13, 14) and at least two support portions (20, 21, 22, 23). Each of the support portions (20, 21, 22, 23) is arranged, in the longitudinal direction of the main body, between two elevation portions (10, 11, 12, 13, 14) which are interconnected by the corresponding support portion. The elevation portions (10, 11, 12, 13, 14) are coplanar. The support portions (20, 21, 22, 23) have different heights relative to the adjacent elevation portions (10, 11, 12, 13, 14). The elevation portions (10, 11, 12, 13, 14) and support portions (20, 21, 22, 23) are integrally formed and thus form the main body.

Abstract

A telescopic assembly for supporting a patient's femur includes an elongate tubular base configured to be fixably attached to a table. The tubular base has a longitudinal axis. The telescopic assembly also includes an elongate extension member slidably disposed in the tubular base and configured to telescopically extend longitudinally from the tubular base. Further, the telescopic assembly includes a femur support member coupled to an end of the extension member and configured to be positioned below and support the femur of the patient. The femur support member is configured to move longitudinally with the extension member relative to the tubular base.
