Patent Issued for Non-invasive apparatuses for mitigating pressure applied to a human body and associated systems and methods (USPTO 12193922).

TurnCare Inc. has been issued a patent for non-invasive apparatuses designed to mitigate pressure applied to the human body, particularly targeting pressure ulcers that often affect mobility-impaired individuals. The patent aims to address the shortcomings of conventional support surfaces in preventing pressure injuries by controlling the pressure on specific anatomical regions through a series of chambers that can be individually inflated or deflated. This innovation seeks to enhance patient recovery processes, especially for those who are immobile or prone to pressure injuries, by reducing proinflammatory mediators and improving blood flow to damaged areas.
