- The problem
                to be solved: 
 
                Construction of a bed to prevent decubitus or to
                treat the bed sore.

            - Definition: 
 
                ADB is an electronic controlled
                automatic running bed producing a continuos
                massage on the lying surface without disturbing
                the patient. The frequency of the change of the
                lying surface or frequency of the massage depend
                on an electromotor (24V) supervised by time
                switch or electronics. The minimal vertical
                pulsation (0,5-1 cm) of the whole body of the
                patient does not disturb infusion or other
                instrumental controls of patient.

            - Presentation:
                
 
                Decubitus is one of the greatest danger
                for the continuously bedridden-patients.
                Frequently the consequence of the bed-sore,
                necrobiosis and its bacterial contamination may
                lead to sepsis or toxicosis causing death of the
                patient. The treatments of decubitus are
                circumstantial, expensive and labor intensive. In
                ADB patient never have bed sore or the decubitus
                recover quicker, cheaper and without giving
                problems for the nurse. 
                The ADB does not need special storage. It can be
                used as a regular bed in the hospital, if the
                operation of the mechanism is not needed. 
                Because it is relatively inexpensive, it is
                available for all hospitals.

            - Advantages: 
 
                It can prevent decubitus, and promotes recovery
                of developed decubitus. The night will be
                refreshing for the people with lack of sleeping
                reflex. After exhausting work and bending it is a
                pleasure to have a little rest in the ADB.

                produce.

                introduction: 
 
                I am medical biologist, finding anticholesterol
                antibody in human sera in Hungary. This antibody
                has an important role in the protection against
                atherosclerosis. In the last time the antigen
                giving active protection against experimental
                atherosclerosis (Now it is in preclinical level)
                and the ADB were patented by me. The most serious
                and dangerous diseases (decubitus,
                atherosclerosis, cancer, psoriasis ) are in the
                focus of my interest, and I believe the ADB is
                only one of the successes I achieved in the field
                of my interest.
