Innovative hospital bed fitted with a special mattress, which rests on a solid piece flexible frame. Caving in some places and bulging in the other, the mattress literally puts the patient at positions that are characteristic of healthy sleep. In addition, it helps nurses often painless and turn bedridden in order to avoid bedsores.

This device invented by a Swiss uchney Michael Sauter. In January this year, his company has demonstrated the development of the Basle event Fachkongress Alter 2011. And in May, has attracted investments compliant concept of 1 million Swiss francs.

More recently, Sauter failed to interest his project a number of American hospitals, for which a solution can be a real panacea. In the United States each year about 2.5 million cases of pressure sores, and treating each costing an average of 43 thousand dollars.
