Device for supporting an infant for medical procedures and method of use

Abstract

The present invention relates to a device designed to safely and securely hold newborn infants during radiographic imaging and medical procedures. This device aims to immobilize neonates to prevent motion artifact during imaging while also protecting healthcare professionals from unnecessary radiation exposure, offering a safer alternative for conducting radiographic imaging on newborns and pediatric population. The device may be constructed primarily of fiberglass, or any medically graded radiolucent materials providing a lightweight, durable, and radiolucent structure. It can be padded with a soft cushion and incorporates a series of adjustable constraints to comfortably and securely hold the baby in place, allowing for precise positioning during radiographic imaging and medical procedures.
