By using button control on the FullChair patient position mechanism the position of immobile patients can be easily and frequently changed, even to an ‘up-in-chair’ position.
The optional SpO2RT module offers percussion and vibration therapies, as well as a continuous lateral rotation feature to aid in the prevention and treatment of pulmonary complications related to immobility.
In addition, to minimise the risk of decubitus ulcer development, all TotalCare beds have an enhanced pressure relieving surface.
