Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9309750A1] A parturition bed having a lying surface (1) transversely divided into two mutually adjustable parts has a main supporting part (2) and a leg supporting part (3) that may be adjusted from a common lying plane into planes approximately parallel to the lying plane located at different heights with respect to each other. The leg supporting part (3) can be moved when it is in a lowered position in relation to the main supporting part (3) can be moved when it is in a lowered position in relation to the main supporting part (2) in the longitudinal direction of the parturition bed into a free space located below the main supporting part (2), at least in the pelvis supporting area of the latter. In order to allow the parturient to take any desired position, including a vertical position, during childbirth, while ensuring easy access to the doctor and midwife, the main supporting part (2) is supported on an overhanging beam (6) with relation to a main stay (5) arranged at the head end of the main supporting part (2) and supported on the floor (4), and can be lifted into a higher position and lowered back again by an adusting mechanism (8, 9, 11, 12, 13).
