Abstract

A patient transfer apparatus and method for transferring a patient from a first surface to a second surface regardless any difference of elevation between the first surface and the second surface, the apparatus includes an adjustable-height pedestal with two free members; and a support board configured to slide over the first surface, second surface, and adjustable height pedestal.

Claims

AMENDED CLAIMS received by the International Bureau on 09 March 2020 (09.03.2020)
1. A patient transfer apparatus that allows a transfer of a supine patient from a first surface to a second surface regardless any difference of elevation between the first surface and the second surface, the apparatus comprises: an adjustable-height pedestal with two free members and two bars; and a support board configured to slide over the first surface, second surface, and adjustable height pedestal, wherein the two bars configured to receive the support board when the apparatus is not in use.
2. The patient transfer apparatus of claim 1, wherein the adjustable height pedestal comprises two base bars with a plurality of wheels and two vertical telescoping poles.
3. The patient transfer apparatus of claim 2, wherein the two telescoping poles are connected to a roller through roller holders.
4. The patient transfer apparatus of claim 2, wherein the two telescoping poles are connected to two free members using hinges.
5. The patient transfer apparatus of claim 4, wherein each of the two free members are configured to angularly rotate about the hinges in a confined angle.
6. The patient transfer apparatus of claim 4, wherein each of the two free members comprises a plurality of rollers with a plurality of roller holders.
7. The patient transfer apparatus of claims 1 or 4, wherein each of the two free members are configured to be in a substantial contact with either the first surface or the second surface when the apparatus is in use.
8. The patient transfer apparatus of claim 2, wherein each of the two telescoping poles comprises a first pole configured to receive a second pole.
14
9. The patient transfer apparatus of claim 8, wherein the first pole comprises a pass through hole.
10. The patient transfer apparatus of claim 8, wherein the second pole comprises a plurality of pass-through holes.
11. The patient transfer apparatus of claims 1, 9, or 10, wherein the pass-through holes are configured to receive a pin to fix the elevation of the adjustable-height pedestal.
12. The patient transfer apparatus of claim 1, wherein the adjustable-height pedestal can be made of aluminum, steel, or any other suitable material that is rigid and has light weight.
13. The patient transfer apparatus of claim 1, wherein the adjustable-height pedestal is configured to be positioned between the first surface and the second surface during a patient transfer process.
14. The patient transfer apparatus of claim 1, wherein the support board is configured to support a patient body during a patient transfer process from the first surface to the second surface.
15. The patient transfer apparatus of claim 1, wherein the support board comprises an elliptical shape.
16. The patient transfer apparatus of claim 1, wherein the support board comprises a plurality of apertures configured to receive two or more straps.
17. The patient transfer apparatus of claim 16, wherein each of the straps comprises a grip handle and fastening means.
18. The patient transfer apparatus of claims 16 or 17, wherein each of the straps is configured to fix a patient body to the support board when the fastening means are connected.
19. The patient transfer apparatus of claim 1 or 17, wherein the grip handle is configured to allow a caregiver to pull and slide the support board over the two free members.
15
20. The patient transfer apparatus of claim 1, wherein the support board is made of plastic, fiber glass, aluminum, steel, or any other suitable material that is rigid, has low coefficient of friction, and has light weight.
21. A process for transferring a patient from a first surface to a second surface using a patient transfer apparatus, the process comprises: providing a first care giver; a second caregiver; a patient lying on a first surface; a second surface adjacent to the first surface; a support board with straps and grip handles; an adjustable-height pedestal with a roller, a first free member and a second free member, each of the free members has a plurality of rollers; turning the patient, by the first caregiver, by pulling his back away from the first surface; inserting the support board, by the second caregiver, between the patient and the first surface; circumfusing, by the first caregiver, the patient with the straps and fastening such straps with fastening means to secure the patient over the support board; inserting the adjustable-height pedestal between the first surface and the second surface and adjusting the height of the adjustable-height pedestal, then allowing a substantial part of the first and the second free members of the adjustable-height pedestal to be in contact with the first and second surfaces, respectively; and allowing, by the second caregiver, the support board to slide over the first and second free members to reach the second surface.
22. The process of claim 21, wherein the second caregiver allows the support board to slide over the first and second free members by pulling the support board over the rollers of the first and second free members using grip handles provided on the straps.
23. The process of claim 21, wherein the first caregiver may assist the second caregiver in allowing the support board to slide over the first and second free members by pushing the support board over the rollers of the first and second free members.
