The Rancho Flotation Bed provides hydrostatic support with maximum pressures over bony prominences of 15 to 25 mm Hg (measured with a pneumatic pressure transducer). This is generally below the levels normally quoted as conducive to the development of ischaemia. Clinical experience has shown the bed to be a successful aid to nursing by eliminating the need to turn the patients for pressure reasons, allowing patients with pressure sores to remain in a position which is more comfortable and more suitable for other nursing care. It also makes it easier for nurses to handle patients in order to care for the pressure sores.
兰乔漂浮床提供静水压支撑，在骨隆突处的最大压力为15至25毫米汞柱（用气动压力传感器测量）。这通常低于通常所说的易导致缺血的水平。临床经验表明，该床通过消除因压力原因给患者翻身的需求，成为护理的一项成功辅助工具，使患有压疮的患者能够保持在更舒适且更适合其他护理的体位。这也使护士更便于护理患者的压疮。
