An air-bed that allows the bariatric patient to be turned from side to side with tilting sets of arms attached to jointed shafts electro-mechanically operated, ensuring patient safety through the use of bedside rails that can double as positioning devices and comfort by being padded. The bed would eliminate physical effort in turning bariatric patients by nursing staff and allow clear areas for treatment
#$%^&*AU2015249155B220170810.pdf#####Abstract An air-bed that allows bariatric (severely overweight) disabled patients to be turned from side to side by tiltable arms carried by bed sections that allow lengthwise elevations of the Baribed. The Baribeds bed-side rails ensure safety and double as positioning devices when patients need to be held on their sides. The arrangement of the air cell sets on the Baribed provides comfort while patients are turned onto their sides and when they are elevated lengthwise. The Baribeds systems combine to reduce stress on patients and their carers.~. LLHUUHJLLLILI]~j
