General Details

Caution: Pressure Cushions & Mattresses

• 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 mattress. Where bottoming out occurs even with correct use, a different product may need to be considered.

• Sometimes, due to the user deteriorating, the product may become unsuitable. Continuous monitoring is necessary and alternative products may be recommended.

• There are many things to consider when selecting pressure care products including nutrition, skin moisture, level of mobility, age shear, friction, location of pressure ulcer (if present) and hygiene. Any comments regarding level of pressure care is a suggestion made by suppliers as a guide to assist with selection, and this may differ from brand to brand. When selecting pressure care products it is strongly advised that a comprehensive assessment is undertaken by a health professional to encourage correct product selection and monitoring of product effectiveness.

Extra product information

MATTRESS: ComfortFLx mattresses are constructed from 3 layer high density hospital grade foam with "castellations" (notches). The castellations are designed to re-distribute pressure (reducing the risk of pressure in localised areas) and encourage airflow (reducing heat and moisture build-up). Available in multiple sizes. Also available in a 2-layer model.

COVER: ultra 2-way stretch cover. Cover is vapour permeable and water-resistant. Anti-microbial, bacteriostatic and fungistatic. Zip is concealed with welded seams.
