More Details
Structure
50 mm diameter holes are designed to assist with air circulation around the person's body and to help dissipate heat and moisture
There are three openings into the overlay:
. The large red opening enables rapid deflation in one second, (eg in case of cardiac arrest when medical staff require a firm surface to perform CPR).
. Small opening with one way valve for inflation by mouth or with hand pump. Inflation with hand pump takes 1 1/2 minutes.
. Medium opening for inflation with electric pump (electric pump not available in Australia.

Attachment
Adjustable hook and loop straps fit over each corner of the underlying mattress to hold it in place

Application
May assist those who have a low risk of developing pressure sores


Factors To Consider
* People lying on this mattress overlay still need to be turned frequently to prevent pressure areas developing
* . Do not over inflate mattress as this reduces pressure relieving properties and may damage the mattress
* Once person is lying on inflated mattress, check that inflation is adequate by ensuring there is space for a flat hand under the person's buttocks
