Importance of Hospital Mattress and Its Influence on Patients' Health

Hospital is an important place for patients to receive treatment and rehabilitation, and its facilities and equipment are very important for patients' health and comfort. Among many equipments, hospital mattress is an often neglected but vital element.

Basic Functions of Hospital Mattresses  

Hospital mattress is not only a carrier for rest, but also a medical aid tool. Its function and design directly affect the treatment effect and recovery speed of patients. The basic functions of hospital mattresses include:

1. Support the body:

Mattress needs to provide enough support for patients to keep the spine naturally bent and avoid bone and muscle discomfort caused by long-term bed rest.

2. Reduce stress:

Specially designed pressure dispersion mattress can reduce the pressure on the contact part between the body and the hospital bed pads, and effectively prevent bedsores from occurring in long-term bedridden patients.

3. Promote blood circulation:

A suitable hospital bed mattress can promote blood circulation and avoid local tissue necrosis due to ischemia by evenly dispersing pressure.

4. 4.provide comfort:

Comfortable hospital bed mattress can help patients relax, help relieve anxiety and pain, and improve the quality of sleep.

Direct Influence of Hospital Mattress on Patients' Health

The quality and functional design of hospital mattresses are closely related to patients' health, especially for patients who are bedridden or weak for a long time.

1. Prevent bedsores

Bedsore is a common complication of long-term bedridden patients, which is mainly caused by long-term compression of local tissues, resulting in blocked blood circulation. Using hospital mattresses with high quality and strong compression resistance can greatly reduce the risk of bedsore. For example, the dynamic air cushion bed changes the contact pressure point by periodically inflating and deflating, which effectively reduces the local pressure.

2. Relieve pain and discomfort

Patients often experience different degrees of pain after surgery or during recovery from illness. A soft and elastic hospital bed pads can provide necessary support for patients and relieve pain in back, waist and joints. In addition, the temperature-sensitive memory sponge mattress can adjust the softness and hardness according to the patient's body temperature, providing patients with a more personalized comfort experience.

3. Improve sleep quality

Good sleep is very important for patients' rehabilitation, and the comfort of mattress directly affects the quality of sleep. High-quality medical bed mattresses can reduce the number of turns at night, so that patients can get a deeper rest, thus accelerating physical recovery.

4. Help postoperative rehabilitation

Postoperative patients need to stay in bed for a long time, and a suitable mattress can provide uniform support for the body, reduce postoperative pain and promote wound healing. In addition, the adjustable functions of the medical bed mattress, such as the adjustment of the inclination angle, can help patients maintain the best rest posture and reduce the pressure on the respiratory and circulatory systems.
