Simpson-Edinburgh low-pressure air bed: an early clinical evaluation.

A simple, inexpensive low-pressure air bed has been developed for use in situations where decubitus ulcers may arise. This bed is currently being evaluated in patients with spinal injuries, both in the hospital situation and in the home. Early experience is highly encouraging as regular turning of the patient can be safely omitted. We feel that widespread use of this bed could greatly decrease the incidence of pressure sores.
