A modular pad assembly includes at least two elongated plate members. Each of the elongated plate member has two opposed ends, and upper and lower faces. Each of the lower faces of the elongated plate members has two longitudinally spaced retaining rings formed thereon. The axes of the two retaining rings are aligned with one another and are parallel to a longitudinal axis of one of the elongated plate members. Each of the retaining rings of the elongated plate has an L-shaped support rod mounted rotatably thereto. Each of the L-shaped support rods has a first arm which is journalled to one of the retaining rings and a second arm which is connected perpendicularly to the first arm. Each of the second arms of the L-shaped support rods has a free end which is formed with a connecting loop. Each of the connecting loops of the L-shaped support rods has an axis transverse to the longitudinal axis of one of the elongated plates.
A modular surgical patient positioner unit consists of three perforated plastic boards arranged for interconnection together and for attachment to a hospital O.R. table. Two outer boards of similar length and width and a central board of similar width and greater length are employed. When employed with regular-sized patients, the three boards are arranged such that the widths thereof are in alignment. When employed with bariatric patients, the longer central board is rotated perpendicular the other two boards, to provide added width to support the bariatric patient.
A seat (chair, stool, etc.) has a seat base with a contoured front that is recessed in the middle. The recess extends towards a seating center and/or in a downward direction, creating an open area for seated person. The open area is located under the body part around the testes of a seated male person so that the dispersion of body heat from that area via air circulation will not be blocked by the seat base, and at the same time, the pressure between the testes area and the seat base will be reduced or eliminated, thereby improving the physiological condition for sperm, and in turn, may increase sperm activity and may reduce the possibility of infertility.

A mobile recessed part that can be moved in and out of the open area in the seat base makes the seat convertible.
A bed assembly includes a base, a frame supported by the base, a deck supported by the frame, and a unit received in an opening formed in an upwardly-facing top surface of the deck so that the unit is accessible from the top side of the deck.
