An innovative solution in bedsore prevention

Design and operation of SMARTFORM

The device we offer forms a transition between traditional seating furniture (dining chair, operating chair, office chair, armchair) and special anti-decubitus beds and mattresses used in clinical and home patient care.

Smartform has a wealth of unique features that are all for the convenience and well-being of the user:

 

ACTIVE SEAT

One of the biggest achievements of Smartform is the seat that can be controlled with a telephone application:

⦁ the pressure rods placed in the mattress can be moved continuously or intermittently

⦁ the user is thus always in contact with the mattress in different areas

⦁ the movement is unobtrusive so it does not interfere with rest or work

⦁ the seat can be loaded up to 130 kg body weight

 

HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT

In addition to moving the mattress, the pressure bars for adjusting the height are also controlled by a computer:

⦁ Seat that can be raised or lowered in the range of 8-10 cm

⦁ height equivalent to standard beds can be adjusted, making it easier for the user to relocate

⦁ the soles are adequately supported at all heights to avoid numbness caused by “hanging legs” or circulatory problems around the thighs

 

HEIGHT ADJUSTABLE FOOTRESTS

Because the lower leg lengths show a large difference between female and male users, we also considered the customizability of the footrests important.

⦁ Height adjustable between 340-480 mm

⦁ folding footrest, which makes sitting much easier

 

TILTABLE BACKREST

This function has become especially important for us when designing furniture, as the proper support of the back section is key not only for the abutments, but also for other joint and disc injuries.

⦁ By adjusting the backrest 90-110 degrees, you can achieve the optimal sitting position

⦁ Continuous wavy movement is ensured even during meals or sitting, so other areas are always under load

⦁ the high backrest also provides support for the head

⦁ the backrest is capable of tilting 120-150 degrees, so a well-known, half-lying body position is created at the deck chairs, which is ideal for rest, relaxation, but even for work

⦁ The adjustable footrest offers essential benefits in the designed postures

TILTABLE SEAT

The active seating surface allows the seat to gain any position along with tilting the backrest.

⦁ the body does not slide forward in a half-lying position

⦁ Adequate support in all positions

⦁ Maximum 10 degree decision option

ADJUSTABLE ARMRESTS

Of course, the primary aspect here was to implement the most practical and health-optimal construction possible.

⦁ removable armrest, which helps to get in and out as easily as possible

⦁ the armrest height can be varied between 15-30 cm according to the user's needs

⦁ the design of the furniture allows the connection of a small computer desk, which makes it easier for the user to work

 

All of the above features allow the user to live a better quality of life and focus on the really important things that have not been possible so far due to their condition.

And the person caring for him or her can save more time and effort that he or she can use in other areas of care.
