Maintain high-quality care for bariatric patients
Abbreviations: PI, pressure injury.
26% of obese patients (BMI over 40 kg/m²) develop PI, double their non-obese counterparts, due to significantly more complex and labor-intensive care. Large, heavy skin folds apply intense pressure on the tissue beneath, causing tissue damage and cell death if left untreated.
Lifting 1.8 tons per 8-hour shift injures 46% of the global nursing workforce on-the-job, with 40% as back injuries. Obese patients have a higher mortality rate, risk of complications, resource usage, hospitalization period, and cost. Caring for obese patients is a fear for the nursing staff.
Procare Auto Bariatric G2 improves caregivers' workflow efficiency, accuracy, and handling injury risks for overweight and obese bariatric care by automating mattress firmness for optimal pressure relief and preventing bottom out during sitting with structurally enhanced air cell design.
Auto-adjustment simplifies care delivery by optimizing mattress firmness according to the patient's weight.
Wider, sturdier mattress improves pressure redistribution coverage and injury risks. Width: 120 cm.
Micro low air loss wicks moisture from patients' skin and improves skin microclimate control.
Structurally reinforced air cells in the torso section provide support and comfort during sitting.
