Abstract

See full text

A patient table includes a patient support surface for supporting a patient and a pressure redistribution assembly that includes a pressure sensing assembly and a repositioning assembly. The pressure sensing assembly measures a pressure between the patient support surface and a patient at a plurality of sensing regions. The repositioning assembly includes a plurality of inflatable cells overlapping the plurality of sensing regions. A medium is located within the inflatable cells and an actuator selectively redistributes a quantity of the medium between the inflatable cells. A processor is configured to receive a measurement of the pressure from the pressure sensing assembly, determine if the measurement of pressure is above a threshold and, if the measurement of pressure is above the threshold, generate a signal to redistribute the medium.
