A patient incline device includes an incline ramp and a centerline spinal support located on a base member. The incline ramp supports the upper torso and head of a patient such that the upper torso and head are elevated with respect to the base member. The centerline support is located adjacent the inline ramp for contact with a central portion of the patient's back located adjacent the spine to elevate the central back portion. According to one embodiment, the incline ramp and the spinal support are inflatable. The width of the spinal support is less than that of the incline ramp to define lateral spaces along opposite sides of the centerline support to receive the arms and side portions of the patient for lateral extension of the chest wall.

L'invention concerne un dispositif d'inclinaison de patient comprenant une rampe d'inclinaison et un support lombaire médian situé sur un élément de base. La rampe d'inclinaison soutient le torse supérieur et la tête du patient de sorte que le torse supérieur et la tête sont surélevés par rapport à l'élément de base. Le support médian est situé de manière adjacente à la rampe d'inclinaison en contact avec la partie centrale du dos du patient située de manière adjacente à la colonne vertébrale pour surélever la partie centrale du dos. Selon un mode de réalisation, la rampe d'inclinaison et le support lombaire sont gonflables. La largeur du support lombaire est inférieure à celle de la rampe d'inclinaison pour définir des espaces latéraux le long des côtés opposés du support médian pour recevoir les bras et des parties latérales du patient pour l'extension latérale de la cage thoracique.
