Dabir Alternating Air Pressure Surfaces: Surgical System

During the course of surgery, a patient may spend hours on the operating table. The Dabir Surgical System is designed for the operating room to reduce tissue deformation, provide pressure offloading capabilities for improved tissue perfusion and reduce skin shear to prevent pressure injuries. The system has been clinically demonstrated to reduce hospital-acquired pressure injuries and is well accepted by the surgical team. Arguably, the best method of treatment is prevention.

Simple Design Specific to the Operating Room
Auto-Start Feature
Worry-Free Protection of Pressure Injury

Our alternating pressure systems are easy to use allowing you to focus on the things that are important during the procedure. The Dabir Surgical System reduces tissue deformation, increases tissue perfusion, and reduces skin shear in patients at risk for developing pressure injuries that can add to the length of their overall treatment.

Pressure Injury Prevention in Challenging Cases

The low profile Dabir surface inflates to 1-inch and minimizes patient movement even in challenging cases. In a clinical study of neurosurgery cases, the Dabir surface was shown to reduce pressure injuries from 6% to 0% while in Head and Neck cases pressure injuries decreased from 3 cases in the preceding 12 months to zero cases in the following 12 months. Patients that acquire pressure injuries or ulcers intraoperatively have longer hospital stays and increased hospital costs. CMS claims that treatment costs for a late stage pressure injury averages $43,180.¹
