The Hill‑Rom® 900 Accella™ Bed

Patient Safety 

Approximately 1 in 5 acute care patients will develop a pressure ulcer.
Patients developing pressure injuries experience poorer outcomes and increased costs of treatment

Acute hospitals have reported from 5 falls per 1,000 bed days in general wards, and up to
18 falls per 1,000 bed days in specialist units with patients more vulnerable to falling.

Improving outcomes through early mobilisation 

Reducing length of stay (LOS) through early mobilisation has been associated
with better outcomes for patients and reduced cost of care. From a financial perspective, the
mean LOS in the ICU is 5.7 days and each day in the ICU costs hospitals 

Staffing constraints 

29%‑38% of nurses report a shortage of registered nurses.
Often the nurse to patient ratio is less than ideal for higher acuity settings, and clinicians spend
more time than they would prefer on administrative tasks rather than caring for patients.

Features that add up 

Hill‑Rom 900 Accella is designed specifically for the higher acuity
setting by focusing on Improving Safety, Enhancing Outcomes
through Early Mobilisation, and Simplifying Tasks.

Hill‑Rom Progressive Mobility Program

Due to the complications associated with immobility, implementing a Progressive
Mobility Program can help achieve better clinical and financial outcomes.

Breathe

For more effective breathing, reducing complications of immobility
• HOB > 30° / HOB Alarm – maintains optimal HOB angle 

Tilt

Getting the patient physiologically ready for sitting and standing

• HOB > 30° / HOB Alarm – maintains optimal HOB angle
• 17° Reverse Trendelenberg – provides orthostatic conditioning

Sit
Facilitates better breathing, enabling physiological adaptation
to the upright position
• EasyChair – facilitates gas exchange
• SlideGuard – prevents patient migration and torso compression 

Stand
Allows patients to attempt standing with additional support
• One‑Touch Side Egress – builds patient strength
• Sit‑to‑stand Liko lifts – provides partial weight bearing

Move
Patients can be weak but able to cooperate with out‑of‑bed orders.
One‑Touch Side Egress – builds patient strength:
• Sit‑to‑stand Liko lifts – achieves out‑of‑bed orders
• Liko stand‑up and lifting solutions – helps patients ambulate
