Description
Concerned about pressure ulcers or skin breakdown during extended bed rest? The Med-Aire 8″ Alternating Pressure and Low Air Loss Mattress System helps manage pressure, reduce moisture buildup, and support healthier skin.
This active mattress replacement system combines alternating pressure therapy with low air loss technology to help redistribute body weight and improve air circulation across the sleep surface. The alternating cycle shifts pressure points regularly, while the low air loss feature helps control the microclimate by reducing heat and moisture against the skin.
The system includes 20 individual air cells that help maximize immersion and envelopment for improved comfort. The integrated pillow section helps maintain head stability while the 8-inch air cells provide deep pressure relief. Each air cell can be easily removed and replaced using air leakage plugs if needed.
A user-friendly compressor control unit allows caregivers to adjust weight settings to match the user’s needs, and the system can also be placed into static mode when required. Built-in visual and audible alarms alert caregivers if air pressure drops, helping maintain safe operation.
Designed for practical home care use, the removable nylon stretch cover is fluid-resistant, vapour-permeable, and engineered to reduce shear and friction.
