Patient Positioning Systems: Introduction

Patient positioning systems are used to prevent problems of immobility and injury in patients. It helps healthcare professionals perform safe, successful procedures, and provides comfort for patients undergoing treatment or recovery. Proper positioning also helps to prevent potential complications such as nerve damage or pressure ulcers. When a patient is positioned correctly during surgery, specimen collection, or other therapies, the surgical or targeted treatment area is best exposed, and the patient's dignity is maintained by limiting needless exposure. In most cases, correct patient placement ensures physiologic safety, preserves body alignment, and manages airway and breathing.

Global Patient Positioning Systems Market Analysis

The market is experiencing significant growth driven by factors including increasing research and development activities aimed at producing innovative patient positioning equipment.
