AIR BED

Description

Air beds, also known as air mattresses, are commonly used in surgical and hospital settings to provide comfort and prevent bedsores for patients who are bedridden for extended periods. Here are some key features and benefits:

1. Pressure Relief: Air beds are designed to distribute pressure evenly across the body, reducing the risk of pressure sores and ulcers. They are especially beneficial for patients with limited mobility.
2. Alternating Pressure: Many air beds come with an alternating pressure pump that inflates and deflates different sections of the mattress. This helps to improve blood circulation and prevent skin breakdown.
3. Comfort: Air beds provide a comfortable surface for patients, which can help improve their overall well-being and recovery.
4. Adjustability: The firmness of the mattress can be adjusted to suit the patient’s needs, providing personalized support and comfort.
