In the context of medicine, a motorized bed is a bed with movable side rails and a mattress foundation with three jointed parts that may be lifted by a crank or motor to allow a patient to lie in various positions for comfort or therapy.
Sometimes it is referred to as the Gatch Bed. In order to do away with the bedpan, the initial push-button hospital bed included a built-in toilet. By using a motor instead of manual or semi-electric hospital beds, users can adjust the bed in various ways without having to do any physical effort.
The backrest’s height can be raised by the user by up to 90 degrees thanks to adjustable placement. It is also possible to alter the lowest portion of the bed, which may improve comfort and circulation in the lower limbs.
Hospital beds are simple to alter thanks to the power. Using a hand controller, the user can modify their own posture without the assistance of a caregiver or family member. A person can adjust the height of an electric bed in addition to the bed’s feet and head.
For the carers involved, including nurses, porters, and transport team members, transporting patients in hospital beds is a typical patient handling duty that might provide considerable ergonomic dangers.

The new statewide command centre software programme for managing hospital capacity and vital resources was introduced by GE Healthcare for the first time in Oregon. Apprise Health Insights will be in charge of overseeing the rollout of this technological platform, the Oregon Capacity System (OCS), to each hospital in the state of Oregon thanks to a government grant from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).
In order to introduce the first automated state-wide hospital bed management solution in the country, GE Healthcare has partnered with Apprise Health Insights.
The system is being expanded by Apprise Health Insights and GE Healthcare to track and process more than five million data points every day, including information on the availability of acute, paediatric, ICU, specialty, rehab, and psychiatric beds as well as personal protective equipment (PPE), emergency departments, and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO).
