Fowler Bed

A Fowler bed is a hospital bed designed to provide various adjustable positions for patients, which can improve comfort and aid in medical care. These beds are especially helpful for individuals with mobility issues, breathing problems, or those recovering from surgery. Fowler beds have multiple sections that can be adjusted to raise or lower the head and foot of the bed to different angles. This allows for specific patient positions, such as back rest 30-70 degrees and leg section15-30 degrees, which are important for various medical needs and comfort. The adjustable positions can enhance comfort, improve breathing by aiding lung expansion, facilitate medical procedures, help with digestion, and reduce the risk of bedsores by allowing for repositioning. Many modern Fowler beds also include safety features like side rails and brakes.
