In a cardiology report, the sentence is the final sentence and is talking about the transfer of the patient. The sentence reads:

Hiermit verlegen wir [redacted] bei akutem Bettendruck ins [redacted] und bedanken uns fuer die prompte Uebernahme.

Does this mean that the patient is confined to bed?

Thank you!
