TRANSFORM A STANDARD BED INTO AN AUTOMATED LATERAL TURNING BED

The new Levabo Turn All™ lateral turning system has been developed to assist clinicians and carers in the acute, aged, community and home care settings. It is designed to streamline the delivery of consistent and effective pressure care for vulnerable immobile patients, with pre-existing pressure injuries, as well as providing protection for those at risk of developing them. This is achieved by automating the process of gently and regularly repositioning these patients by rolling them into a 30° side-lying posture, on both sides of the body, for a set period of time. Carers are given a choice of 3 cycle times for improved pressure care options.

Clinical Guidelines

Clinical practice guidelines recommend regular repositioning at least every two hours for patients with reduced mobility (NICE GUIDELINE 2015).The 2019 International pressure injury guidelines ( EPUAP,NPIAP, PPPIA) recommend the use of the 30° side lying position.
