Trendelenburg Position

This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.

Show

Reverse Trendelenburg describes the same tilt in the opposite direction, head higher than feet.

Watch for

Trendelenburg is an eponym and names a position only. It states nothing about why one is used.
