Abstract
The study is not aimed at the hard endpoint pressure ulcer, but at the physiological movement profile of patients in bed, which justifies a much smaller number of cases. For elderly nursing home patients it appears that beds with spring elements may be associated with higher normality of body movements and higher self-rated comfort. The presented study could be a contribution to reduce the care dependency of patients regarding mobility.
