-
Controllers designed to facilitate turning a patient laterally, either intermittently or continuously in specialty beds and/or associated mattress systems to prevent and/or treat respiratory difficulties, skin complications, and related problems in critically ill, immobile (e.g., ventilated, sedated) patients. These controllers, when used in conjunction with a specialty bed and mattress surface, allow the specialty bed to be converted into a lateral rotation therapy bed.
