Short Description
This mattress is a replacement system which sits directly onto the bed base. It is used as an aid in the prevention and treatment of pressure ulcers up to and including category 4. This system combines air with a Visco soft foam surface, this provides a special degree of user comfort as well as pressure relief. The foam structure incorporating the alternating cells, is key to the pain management. It has a very quiet battery operated pump. The mattress is available in a range of sizes. The mattress can also be customised.

More Details
STRUCTURE
This mattress has eight alternating air cells and these cells are encased in high resilient foam. On top of the high resilient foam, closest to the user, is a thin layer of visco-elastic foam. This construction reduces the alternating sensation and the potential for shearing. The mattress incorporates a heel slope and anti-shear inner cover.

ATTACHMENT
The replacement system sits directly onto the bed base.

PUMP/CONTROLS
The silent electrically operated pump is attached to the mattress system, however is extremely portable. The pump needs to be connected to 220-240V electrical socket. The on/off switch is easily accessible and the pressure control has a digital display. The correct air pressure is set by using the arrows (1-10). Guidelines according to user weight are given in the table on the pump.
The mattress comes with a written guide (for reference of required pressure level). The pressure is set by entering the users weight.

COVER
The cover is separate to the overlay. The material is vinyl, washable, water resistant, fitted, four way stretch, and fluid resistant. The cover is breathable and has been tested to ISO16603.

CUSTOMISED FEATURES
The mattress size can be customised to suit the individual user.

SAFETY FEATURES
During a power failure, both the sound and light alarm will go on. When the low pressure light is on, the pressure in the mattress is below normal. Both the light
and sound alarm will activate. To empty the air cells, pull the CPR band placed between mattress and pump.

CLEANING REQUIREMENTS
Machine washable at 95 degree celcius.

MAINTENANCE
Check the power cord and plug for damage and scratches.
Check that the mattress cover is intact and that the cover and air cells are correctly assembled.
