Alternating Pressure Surfaces for Pressure Injury (Ulcer) Prevention

Dabir Surgical System

Dabir Patient Care System

How It Works

Our alternating pressure surfaces are designed for patients who are immobile for prolonged periods and are at risk for developing pressure injuries. This includes sedated patients on mechanical ventilation, patients recovering from surgical procedures, or when turning the patient is not an option. Each of these conditions can put patients at risk for pressure injury. Patient exposure to continuous, unrelieved high pressure on bony prominences of the body can also lead to increased treatment costs associated with pressure injuries including debridement surgery. Our surfaces have alternating rows of air-filled geometric nodes inside the surface inflate and deflate to a maximum height of 25mm every 5 minutes to provide dynamic alternating pressure relief to improve blood flow, maintain healthy tissue perfusion, and reduce the effects of skin shear and tissue deformation that can lead to pressure injuries while maintaining patient stability. This innovative active support surface was designed to take the guesswork out of pressure injury (ulcer) prevention and reduce treatment costs for healthcare providers.

Reduce Pressure Injuries (Ulcers) and Associated Treatment Costs:

Hospital Acquired Pressure Injuries (HAPI’s) represent a $2 billion annual burden to the U.S. healthcare system and are now considered a “Medical Never Event” by Medicaid and Medicare.

Approximately half of hospital acquired pressure injuries identified among critical care patients are Stage 1. Although Stage 1 injuries are common, outcomes associated with them show that the injuries persisted and, in some cases, worsened until the patient was discharged from the hospital.¹ In a recently published article, clinicians are urged to maximize treatment for patients who are older or experience alterations in perfusion.
