FlipProne XL – Prone & Supine Positioning Platform with Smart Textile Integration

(Final Development & MDR Certification Phase)

FlipProne XL is an advanced Prone & Supine positioning platform currently in the final phase of CE MDR certification. Designed to support controlled and assisted patient turning, FlipProne XL can be used with standard hospital bed sheets or with LSB’s patented Smart Textile technology.

The system has been developed in several configurations to accommodate different clinical workflows:

FlipProne XL – Basic Version
Designed for standard assisted patient turning using the handwheel or turning motor.

FlipProne XL – Plus Version
Includes Smart Textile components and Face Support XL for enhanced positioning support.

FlipProne XL – Exclusive Version
Integrates Smart Textile, Face Support XL and the FlipProne XL App for guided prone–supine positioning workflows.

FlipProne XL is engineered to support efficient and controlled repositioning within a hospital or care environment. Depending on local procedures and training, the system is designed to assist healthcare staff in performing horizontal patient turning with a reduced physical workload. The aim of this development is to contribute to safer, more consistent and structured positioning workflows.

Prone & Supine Positioning in Clinical Practice

Prone and supine positioning are established methods within modern respiratory and intensive care practice. FlipProne XL has been developed to support healthcare teams in organizing and standardizing these positioning procedures within existing clinical protocols.

FlipProne XL App

The FlipProne XL App is designed to support the use of the FlipProne XL system in hospitals, nursing homes and disability care centers. The app provides step-by-step guidance, digital workflow support and connectivity with Smart Textile components.

In combination with the FlipProne XL system, the app supports several positioning workflows:

• Prone positioning workflow

• Supine positioning workflow

• Prone/Supine positioning with controlled lateral rotation

These workflows are designed to assist care teams in managing complex patient positioning procedures in a structured and consistent way.
