More Details
STRUCTURE: Consists of 24 horizontal air filled cells. Eight of the cells at the hell end are micro cells to provide additional contouring. These cells adjust independently to the other cells.
De.Teq module constantly adjusts cushion pressure to a minimum.

OPERATION: Three modes are available:
1) Continous low pressure mode: provides the maximum possible distribution of the patient's body weight and therefore the minimum tissue interface pressure.
2) Alternating low pressure mode: provides alternating air pressure therapy without high peak tissue interface pressures. Cells alternate with a 1 in 4 cycle.
3) Transportation Mode: allows for a minimum of two hours transportation on an inflated mattress away from power.

COVER: The cover made from a product known as Protex. The features of this product are that it is waterproof, moisture vapour permeable, two way stretch to reduce shear and friction, non-irritant and anti-inflammable. It also has bacteriostatic and anti-fungal cover.

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.
