Abstract
The fluidised-bead bed is a novel way of managing patients in the intensive-therapy unit (ITU) with various nursing problems. It is particularly suitable for the management of pressure areas and for patients at the extremes of weight range. Theoretically, the bed is a way of reducing catabolism, but this has so far not been properly investigated.Entities:
