Figure 53-8
The sitting position. The patient is typically semirecumbent
rather than sitting. In A, the head holder support
is correctly positioned such that the head can be lowered without the necessity of
first detaching the head holder. The configuration in B,
with the support attached to the thigh portion of the table, should be avoided.
