Cover
The bacteriostatic top fabric is fire resistant, fluidproof, tear resistant,
cleanable, and replaceable. The pleated design allows full integration with the
mattress’s Geo-Matt style shear-relieving surface while minimizing hammocking.
Foam Topper
The exclusive Geo-Matt® style foam topper is a high density, medical grade foam.
The unique geometric design consists of over 800 individual cells, each of which
acts individually to redistribute pressure, to reduce heat and moisture buildup
on the skin, and to reduce shear to underlying tissues. This foam topper is 2"
in height and includes the unique Heel Slope™ feature, designed to further reduce
pressure for the sensitive heel area.
Safety Edge™ Bolsters
The Safety Edge™ consists of a firm 2-part foam bolster whose inner
edge contours under pressure to direct the patient towards the center of the mattress.
This adds to patient stability in sitting and lying down, and helps prevent falls
and entrapment between the siderail and the mattress.
Air Cylinders
The inflation system consists of four urethane air cylinders that run head to
foot underneath the body and the foam topper. These cylinders perform the alternating
pressure therapy, Cylinders inflate and deflate in a fixed 10-minute cycle. Inflation
levels are designed to provide and maintain low interface pressures throughout
the mattress, and to redistribute peak interface pressure points during the alternating
cycle.
Control Unit
Comfort Dial on the Control Unit changes pressures inside the cylinders within
a small but perceptible range. This gives the patient some control over firmness,
without compromising pressure redistribution or causing bottoming out.
