Abstract
A patient arm support comprises a first elongate resilient segment extending along an axis having a top and a bottom surface, the bottom surface being configured to rest upon a substantially planar surface and the top surface being configured to support an upper portion of the patient's arm. A second elongate resilient segment extends along the axis and also has a top and a bottom surface, the bottom surface being configured to rest upon a substantially planar surface and the top surface being configured to support a lower portion of the patient's arm. In one embodiment a void provides axial separation between the top surfaces of the first and second resilient segments. The void is configured to receive the ulnar nerve at the elbow of the patient without the ulnar nerve contacting a surrounding surface. In another embodiment the second elongate resilient segment is inclined upward as it extends away from the first elongate resilient segment. In another embodiment a lengthwise channel is provided in the top surface of the second elongate resilient segment to receive and secure a patient's hand in a neutral position. Embodiments may include combinations of these features.
