This year our express on-stand sessions will be hosted by Maarten Middelkoop, Clinical Director of
Compliance from Theraposture’s Dutch manufacturer of the Orbit rotating bed. His educational
presentation will be:

Rotating Beds – Compliance, design, and effectiveness

Maarten will give a fascinating insight into Medical Device product development. Following the 2023
launch of the Orbit 235 at the OT show, he will demonstrate how medical device product design must
achieve practical effectiveness, compliance with standards, affordability, and adaptability to help
equipment services with reissuing. This CPD opportunity will show prescribers how the Orbit Rotating Bed range has been developed to ensure compliance with BSEN60601-2-52.
Stand H36 both days: 10:00-10:20, 11:30-11:50, 13:30:13:50, 15:00-15:20.

Exciting new bed launches

Alongside our educational program, we will be launching a range of new Orbit rotating beds. Building on the proven success of the pioneering Orbit 235 which was launched at the OT Show in 2023, there will be the first opportunity to see and trial the new Orbit 335 Plus and Orbit Divan. These two new rotating beds promise to revolutionise care and independence for a wider user group.

The Orbit 335 Plus will be the world’s strongest specialist rotating bed with a 300kg user weight limit. The Orbit Divan now offers complete flexibility in terms of bed surround – ensuring all styles and decor can be complimented.

Theraposture, the considered choice for Occupational Therapist’s seeking quality sleeping solutions for adults and children, will be highlighting their latest products that significantly reduce care costs and represent great value for money (stand KK30, NEC, 27–28 November).

The Orbit 235 (Occupational Rotational Bed for Independent Transfers)

The Orbit 235 is a revolution and a huge step forward in rotating beds. There is no other rotating bed like it. It has been developed in collaboration with Occupational Therapists and end users, building on Theraposture’s understanding and experience gained as the true market-leading supplier of rotating beds for over 20 years. Everything that has been learnt and everything that has been asked for has resulted in the Orbit 235.

The Orbit 235 can be modularly configured and programmed for each individual user, catering for users between 4’10” and 6’6”, weighing up to 31 stones. This is why it is so easily reissued and recycled and therefore perfect for equipment services. The Trusted Assessors working on the Theraposture stand will be able to explain the full extend of the configurable possibilities.

The Orbit is part of an extensive range of rotating beds from Theraposture that enable safe independent transfers so that users can get in and out of bed on their own terms with less assistance.

In terms of cost savings, the Orbit 235 offers the opportunity to reduce care packages from two to one person assisting, or none in some case – ultimately resulting in potential care cost savings of around £30,000 per year and this saving is ongoing every year. With care packages costing so much and being in short supply, the Orbit represents a sustainable ‘stay at home’ solution that is undeniably cost effective.

The ES-Cot Emma (Equipment Service Cot)

Theraposture have introduced two new Cot Beds which make up the new ES-Cot range. These beds have been created as ready-to-go stock beds that are very affordable and therefore a great option for Equipment Services to consider. The ES-COT EMMA and IDA both offer the high quality expected from Theraposture and Kayserbetten, however, they have been designed to facilitate a lower price point so that they are an alternative to the budget cots from other suppliers. The ES-Cot EMMA and IDA have been independently tested and are certified for compliance with all relevant medical bed standards.

These beds look great and come complete with padding, mattress and delivery within the stated price.

Liam Braddell, Theraposture Managing Director, concludes:

“From our close work with Occupational Therapists, we understand the financial pressures everyone is facing both in the public and private sectors. Funding for assistive equipment is not easy to secure, and the OT has a responsibility to ensure long term value, quality and compliance and a solution that works. Our Orbit bed and ES-COT cots are game changers, as they are proven solutions that represent excellent value and deliver savings, making them the considered choice”.

CPD presentations

The Theraposture stand proved to be once again a popular destination for healthcare professionals attending the OT Show. Throughout the two days, Shaun Masters, OT, delivered a series of CPD presentations entitled ‘Getting legs into bed – redefined.’ These educational talks aimed to help OTs solve a huge issue in the community so that clients can live independently and without the need for expensive care packages. Pivotal to Shaun’s ‘express’ CPD sessions was the new rotating bed from Theraposture – the Orbit 235.

The Orbit 235 Rotating Bed

The Orbit 235 (Occupational Rotational Bed for Independent Transfers) is a revolution and huge step forward in rotating beds. The Orbit 235 is a rotating bed that can be prescribed and configured accordingly to a wide range of users, making it exceptional value because it is easy to reissue and easy to accommodate all shapes and sizes of user.

Theraposture has added the Orbit 235 to its current market-leading and proven range of rotating beds which includes the OT Show award-winning Rotoflex. Each electrically operated bed offers powered profiling, rotation into a chair position and variable height so users with restricted mobility can get in and out of bed safely, and on their own terms. Designed to assist bed transfers for many conditions including Parkinson’s, MS and Stroke, these beds offer an alternative to expensive carer assistance, hoisting, or the need for relocation into residential care.

In many scenarios these beds ‘pay for themselves’ in a short period of time as typical care costs can range from £27,000 to £50,000+ per annum. After that short time there is no cost, yet the cost of care would otherwise be ongoing. The Orbit 235 now extends this offering with a solution that is totally prescriptive for everyone. This is achieved by assessing each user, using the Orbit 235, and configuring the settings which are then recorded as a prescription.

The scope of adjustment through the modular design and electronic programming, includes:

No other rotating bed in the world can offer this scope of prescriptive settings, thus making the Orbit 235 a ‘game changing’ next level development in rotating beds.

Liam Braddell, Managing Director of Theraposture said:

“Everything that we have learnt and everything that we have been asked for has resulted in the Orbit 235. The manufacturing process includes robotic welding and laser cutting technology, creating a level of quality that is unrivalled.”

Shaun Masters demonstrated to large numbers of delegates how the Orbit 235 is the most advanced solution for independent bed transfers available. He said:

“In my experience as an OT, the Orbit 235 is the most accomplished, capable, and well-designed rotating bed available. It is suitable for a wide range of users, making it versatile and recyclable, and great value for equipment services.”

The Orbit 235 is now available for client suitability assessments in their homes supported by Theraposture Trusted Assessors. The bed will feature in Shaun’s new CPD webinars for 2024 which all Occupational Therapists are encouraged to sign up for when they become available.

The Orbit 235 has been developed in collaboration with Occupational Therapists and end users, building on Theraposture’s understanding and experience gained as the true market-leading supplier of rotating beds for over 20 years. Everything that has been learnt and everything that has been asked for has resulted in the Orbit 235.

Theraposture provides a range of rotating beds including the OT Show award-winning Rotoflex. The Orbit 235 now extends this offering with a solution that be configured through personalised programming, and the modular adjustments from its clever and flexible design.

The Orbit 235 can be adapted to suit users from 4’10” to 6’6” with adjustable platform lengths of 200, 210 and 220cm and programmable seating dimensions to suit all shapes and sizes. This adaptability is truly unique and game-changing. There are three mattress lengths of 200, 210 and 220cm and the seat settings allow seat heights from 40cm to 48cm and depths from 46cm to 51cm. This scope of personalisation ensures full support and comfort can be achieved.

Another innovation is the option to program a finished chair position of 90 degrees in relation to the bed, to aid side access to a wheelchair or if space is limited in a room. The speed of rotation, angle of recline, vertical lift (or tilt if preferred) can all be pre-programmed to user preferences.

The Orbit 235 has a fully integrated powered rising heel section that ensures fully supported leg elevation to assist with oedema. The Orbit 235 has a maximum patient weight of 31 stones (200kg) Theraposture’s Rotating Bed Range provides a safe, proven and lasting solution to independent bed transfers, allowing the users to get in and out of bed on their own terms, and when carer assistance isn’t available. It can also reduce the need for caregivers. With two carers visiting twice daily, to assist with bed transfers, costing around £27,000 per annum, this independence represents a significant saving and means Theraposture rotating beds pay for themselves in a short space of time. Equally, relocation to residential care can be avoided – typically costing around £50,000+ per year.

Shaun Masters, Occupational Therapist will be using the new Orbit 235 within his on-stand CPD presentations at the OT Show. Shaun said:

“In my experience as an OT, the Orbit 235 is the most accomplished, capable, and well-designed rotating bed available. The Orbit 235 is suitable for a wide range of users, making it versatile and recyclable, and great value for equipment services.”

As with all rotating bed from Theraposture, the Orbit 235 can provide improved occupation for clients with the following conditions:

Theraposture provides free home assessments with a rotating bed, to ensure that suitability can be established in the user’s home environment, with the appropriate bed. For the Orbit 235, a personal configuration is saved and later used when the bed is delivered.

The Orbit 235 is built using cutting-edge production techniques. It brings together precision laser cutting, robot welding and powder coating for ultimate reliability. This new level of durability is matched by its pioneering adaptability. The Orbit truly raises the bar in rotating bed design – delivering levels of tailored independence never experienced before.
