Combining effective pressure redistribution with safer lateral patient transfers
Repose Trolley Companion is a unique device that moves with the patient, combining effective pressure redistribution and safer lateral transfers. 'A logical solution to lateral transfer' - Rather than move the patient from one surface to another, move them together.
A patient is likely to experience a wide variety of support surfaces throughout the journey from admission to discharge - some may provide adequate pressure redistribution but typically, most will not. In addition, the transfers between surfaces may cause pressure damage due to the friction and shear forces exerted in many lateral transfer procedures.
- Low Air technology distributes weight evenly and doesn’t lose its shape
- Reduces shear and friction forces associated with lateral transfer.
- The patient is always protected by an effective pressure redistributing surface
- Saves time and effort during the lateral transfer process
- Avoids expenditure on transfer products such as slide sheets
- Radiolucent with minimal artefact
- Corner retaining straps fit securely to any support surface
- The zip has an integral cover flap for added protection against fluid ingress
- The cover can be wiped down or machine washed at 65ËšC Repose can be cleaned and reused
