This patented design solves the healthcare industry’s need for effortless Lateral Sleep Positioning.  With a back and front section design, the bed elevates the back section for full-body support and the front section for body alignment. This design provides for an embrace-like sensation as the patient’s back rests against the elevated mattress. Patient’s body is aligned, hips with shoulders, as the front section is elevated to their specific comfort position. 

 

Lateral Positioning is scientifically documented to reduce symptoms of these prevalent health issues (NIH.gov):

Ø  Gastrointestinal Disease – Left Lateral Positioning keeps gastric juices below the esophagus promoting relief from GI issues to allow for uninterrupted sleep

Ø  High Blood Pressure – Left Lateral Positioning reduces pressure on the inferior vena cava lowering blood pressure 

Ø  High-Risk Pregnancy Left Lateral Position is optimal to increase circulation to the fetus  

Ø  Sleep Apnea and Snoring relief – Left Lateral Position opens airways naturally 

Ø  Pressure Point Relief with Full-Body Support and Alignment

Ø  Prevention of Falls in the Elderly – Embrace & Support calms and relaxes patient

   

Following are a few of the published scientific studies which demonstrate the health benefits of lateral sleep positioning:

1) NIH Study – Sleep Apnea Relief with Lateral Sleep Positioning 

2) NIH Study – Sleep Apnea, Epiglottic collapse was virtually abolished with lateral positioning and ventilation increased by 45% compared to supine position 

3) Lateral Sleep Position – Normal Body Mass and Obstructive Sleep Apnea
