Optimal Patient Positioning for Enhanced Comfort and Recovery
The Semi Fowler Patient Bed is a specialized medical bed designed to position patients in a semi-sitting posture (typically with the head raised 30-45 degrees), which is clinically recognized for improving breathing, aiding circulation, and enhancing overall comfort. It is an essential piece of equipment for patients with respiratory difficulties, cardiac conditions, or those recovering from surgery, providing a therapeutic environment that promotes faster recovery in both hospital and home care settings.
Key Features & Design Excellence:
Manual or Electric Backrest Adjustment: Effortlessly raise the backrest to the semi-Fowler position using a user-friendly hand crank or a quiet electric motor with a bedside remote.
High-Low Height Adjustment: The entire bed can be raised to an optimal height for caregiver ergonomics or lowered to a safe level for easy and safe patient entry and exit.
Detachable Safety Side Rails: Full-length or half-length safety rails can be easily engaged to prevent falls, providing security for disoriented or sleeping patients.
Sturdy Locking Castors: Four heavy-duty, swivel castors with central locking ensure easy mobility and secure stabilization when the bed is in use.
Durable & Easy-Clean Construction: The bed frame is made from high-quality, powder-coated steel, resistant to corrosion and easy to wipe down with disinfectants.
Comfortable Mattress Base: Comes with a compatible, firm mattress base that provides adequate support and is designed for use in the semi-Fowler position.
Unmatched Benefits for Patient Care:
Improve Respiratory Function: The semi-upright position helps expand the lungs, making breathing easier for patients with pneumonia, COPD, or other respiratory ailments.
Enhance Patient Comfort & Dignity: Allows patients to read, eat, and interact with visitors more comfortably than in a fully supine position, boosting their morale.
Aid in Digestion and Reduce Reflux: This position is beneficial for patients experiencing acid reflux or those being fed through a tube.
Increase Caregiver Safety & Efficiency: The height adjustment feature reduces back strain for nurses and family members during patient care activities.
Prevent Complications: Regular position changes help reduce the risk of developing bedsores (pressure ulcers) and other immobilization-related issues.
Simple & Effective Usage:
Positioning: Ensure the bed is at a low height and the wheels are locked. Assist the patient into a supine (flat on back) position.
Adjusting the Backrest: Use the hand crank or electric remote to slowly raise the backrest to the desired angle (typically 30-45 degrees for Semi-Fowler).
Caregiver Access: Raise the bed height when the caregiver needs to perform tasks like changing dressings or bedding.
Safety: Always engage the safety rails when the patient is resting, especially if they are sedated or have limited mobility.
