Patent ID: 7653953

Claim:
A rotating therapeutic bed comprising: a structural base which in turn includes wheels located at a lower portion of the structural base to allow the bed to be moved from one place to another; a first removable stretcher having a first mattress to support a patient laying on his back; a second removable stretcher having a second mattress which is located in a reversed fashion over the first stretcher and over the patient, who is laying between the mattresses of both stretchers, the second stretcher supporting the patient laying face down when the stretchers are rotated by 180° about a rotation axis extending along the patient; stretcher mounting and rotation members to rotationally mount the stretchers on the structural base, the first and second stretchers being longitudinally mounted with a vertical spacing between them on the stretcher mounting and rotation members, which further allow them to rotate; and side barriers coupled to longitudinal sides of the first stretcher as well as to longitudinal sides of the second stretcher, the barriers covering the vertical spacing between the stretchers where the patient is laying, thereby preventing the limbs of the patient from protruding out of the stretchers when rotated.
