More Details
STRUCTURE
16 individual cells (baffles) divided into three sections: head, seat and foot. Integrated side air bolsters with foot pillow. Air circulates through the cells and escapes from 33 air openings distributed equally across the top mattress surface. It circulates under a vapour permeable cover to wick moisture away from the patient.
A Foot Pillow prevents skin breakdown due to patient slipping down the bed.
COVER
Waterproof, vapour permeable (breathable), zippered mattress cover
ATTACHMENT
Four straps are located on each side of the mattress cover. These are for strapping to the bed frame.
ADDITIONAL FEATURES
Upright Patient Mode
Provides added support when the bed head is elevated. Patient can sit upright without bottoming out.
Firm Mattress Mode
Helps facilitate nursing care during dressing changes and patient repositioning.
System Lock
Prevents accidental adjustments and automatically resets the system in case of power failure
Auto Comfort
During set up, mattress sets optimal pressure according to patient's weight distribution.
Pulsation

Factors To Consider
All pressure reduction products must be monitored to prevent 'bottoming out'. This occurs when the user's weight bears down so hard on the product material that it is flattened and the bony parts are pressed against the surface below the cushion or mattress. Where bottoming out occurs even with correct use (eg correct inflation levels), a different product may need to be considered.
Standards
Some assistive technology needs to meet Australian or other standards. Standards may relate to materials, manufacturing and installation. Products that meet Australian or international standards will have written certification. To find out if a product meets Australian Standards ask the supplier to show you the certificate.
