Table 4.

Differences Between the Three Methods of Placement Time, Repositioning Time, and Total Time

Category Traditional Over-Bed Method Postural Trolley-Assisted Over-Bed Method Direct Over-Bed Method H P
Placement time* (min) 4.80[4.38,5.27] 1.48[1.32,1.73] 1.55[1.42,1.71] 87.36 <0.001
Repositioning time* (min) 4.56[4.03,4.89] 2.81[2.53,3.31] 3.01[2.87,3.59] 133.21 <0.001
Total time* (min) 9.28[8.47,10.16] 4.25[3.88,5.03] 4.48[4.32,5.31] 162.45 <0.001

Notes: *None of them conformed to a normal distribution; there was an irregularity in the variance; therefore the Kruskal–Wallis test was used.
