Abnostrain™

The Abnostrain is aimed at helping people get out of bed, who are still recovering from some kind of abdominal surgery.

The product basically has two parts, a long strap that secures around the foot-post of the bed, and the hand-grips which you pull on.

When you're ready to get out of bed, you place the Abnostrain between your legs, and using your hands, pull yourself into a seated position using the handgrips. Then you do the reverse to lay back down.

The Abnostrain received its patent in January of 2004, and up until now, appears to have received little publicity, except for sales on a few websites geared towards women who underwent cesarian sections. Just recently, the manufacturer signed a distribution deal with Blue Spring International, LLC to go nationwide.
