Dear ,

Have you seen this issue in your ICU?

Not being able to get a regular over bed table under your motorized ICU bed due to a motor box obstructing it? It is a common issue.

This causes the OBT to be placed at an angle resulting in the patient having to lean to the side to utilize it and only access a portion of the table.

Depending on the extent of the patient's illness/injury it can be very uncomfortable for them.

In addition, there are some procedures, like thoracentesis, that require your patient to lean forward against the table while performing a procedure. This can be difficult when you cannot get the table fully under the bed and if table does not have locking casters
