How an Opera Bed Can Help with Respiratory Conditions

See how elevation, positioning, and supportive surfaces can open airways, ease chest pressure, and reduce discomfort linked to breathing difficulties.

1. Breathe easier with backrest adjustment

  • Raising the backrest opens the chest and lungs, reducing breathlessness and easing respiratory effort

  • Ideal for managing COPD, asthma, and sleep apnoea by minimising airway collapse and improving oxygen flow

  • Helps clear mucus from the lungs by promoting a more upright position, supporting better airway drainage

  • Adjustable elevation helps achieve the most comfortable angle to rest, sleep or recover without straining the chest

What type of beds include this feature: Opera profiling beds, Opera adjustable beds

2. Stay comfortably upright with auto-regression

  • Reduces compression on the chest and abdomen,  ideal for those with COPD, asthma, or lung cancer

  • Promotes easier, more natural breathing by allowing the lungs to expand fully in a semi-upright position

  • Helps reduce shear and friction, improving comfort and maintaining posture

  • Supports longer periods in an elevated position without discomfort, making it easier to rest, sleep, or recover after treatment

3. Enjoy restful sleep with anti-snore mode

  • Gently elevates the head by a few degrees to open the airway — ideal for those with obstructive sleep apnoea or breathing difficulties during sleep
  • Helps reduce snoring and night time waking caused by poor oxygen flow or fluid pooling

  • Helps improve oxygen intake and sleep quality without needing bulky pillows or wedges.

4. Simplify respiratory care with high-low height adjustment

  • Easily raise or lower the entire bed to optimise comfort and accessibility,
    particularly helpful to help get in/out during episodes of breathlessness or
    treatment

  • Lowers safely for rest and reducing fall risk, especially important for those with limited mobility or fatigue

  • Helps caregivers provide effective support during treatments, medication, or emergency response by adjusting bed height to a comfortable working level
