Dabir Patient Care System for the Prevention of Pressure Injury

Designed for pressure injury (ulcer) prevention in critical care, step down unit, medical surgical, and the emergency department, the Dabir Alternating Pressure Surface Patient Care System provides patients and bed-side clinicians with important patient safety features.

In a recent peer-reviewed study, hospital acquired pressure injuries (HAPIs) in the ICU decreased 14% in complex cardiovascular patients in the surgical intensive care unit.¹ Similarly, in a recent poster presentation, the Dabir Patient Care System showed sustained outcomes of a 47% reduction in ICU posterior surface HAPIs over a 12-month period.² These patients benefit from reduced tissue deformation, pressure offloading capabilities for improved tissue perfusion, and reduced skin shear. Dabir Patient Care Systems are light-weight, portable, easy and will support patients up to 600 pounds.

The brightness sensor on the controller automatically adjusts the brightness of the display for low light viewing and contributes to an environment that minimizes sleep disruption for patients in intensive care.

Pressure Injury Prevention Across the Continuum of Care

Prevention; An Alternative to Treatment Costs:

The micropressure surfaces of the Dabir Compact System are available in sizes that fit any ICU bed, Medical Surgical bed or stretchers to provide head to foot pressure injury protection for at risk patients anywhere along he continuum of care. The Dabir system was used with high risk patients in a study conducted in 6 acute care hospitals with busy Emergency Departments within a Level 1 Quaternary health system with wait times ranging from 2 to 28 hours. Results show that patients with existing pressure injuries did not experience any further tissue deterioration. Additionally, more than 88% of the study patients rated the overlays as being comfortable.
