This article described the difficulty hospitals face when considering ways to increase prone positioning since prone positioning is not a directly reimbursed intervention. The article concludes that spending more money to increase utilization of prone positioning makes fiscal sense, knowing that the intervention can increase survival rates for patients<\/span><\/strong>.1<\/sup><\/p>\n

Prone Positioning<\/p><\/div>\n

Because major barriers to utilizing prone positioning include staff training and nursing resources, Turn Medical has developed Turn University<\/strong><\/a> and the Pronova-O2<\/sub> Proficiency Program<\/strong><\/a>,<\/strong> designed to support training and education for nurses as well as support policy and protocol development for automated prone therapy. Pronova-O2<\/sub>\u2122<\/sup> is a therapy system that implements the prone position with dramatically less staff required to complete the position change once the patient has been transferred to the surface.<\/p>\n

The Pronova-O2<\/sub> Automated Prone Therapy System<\/strong><\/a> provides a safe and efficient method for positioning critically ill patients. INQUIRE NOW<\/strong><\/a> to request a demo for your facility! For additional information on automated prone positioning, please visit turnmedical.com<\/strong><\/a> or call 1-855-275-8876.<\/p>\n
