The present invention relates to a bed, and more particularly to a functional bed to prevent and heal bedsores.

Decubitus is a skin injury caused by the back, waist, shoulders, and elbows of the patient lying on the bed for a long time. These pressure ulcers can be seen in patients who have been debilitated for long periods of time or in those who cannot change their position freely due to disorders of the cerebral spinal nerves. Occasionally, it can be caused by splints or casts. Pressurized skin becomes pale at first because of poor blood circulation, redness of the surroundings and tenderness. Later, blisters are formed, further progressing to tingling, causing the gangrene to fall off, forming an ulcer, resulting in a odorous discharge of one of the most dangerous diseases.

Another bed for preventing bedsores is disclosed in Republic of Korea Patent Publication No. 10-2001-0001177 (published January 5, 2001). The bed disclosed in the patent data is to lift the lifting frame of the separate net form by the automatic or semi-automatic lifting means by the periodic operation means such as a timer to prevent bedsores that are likely to occur in patients who need to lie in bed for a long time By ventilating to prevent bedsores of the patient while blowing air between the mattress and the body of the patient to dry and emits ions and ultraviolet rays to be sterilized.
