An active pressure relieving air mattress overlay consisting of a mattress pad and an electric motor / pump. This alternating air overlay is designed to assist in the prevention and management of people who are assessed at medium / high risk of pressure ulcer development or existing ulcers up to and including grade 2.
General Details
Caution
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.
Extra product information
The Harvest Opal Mattress Overlay System provides active pressure relief by a series of individual cells that gently inflate and deflate alternately over a set cycle. The three top cells remain static for the patient's head comfort.
STRUCTURE
Mattress Overlay Pad:
. 17 nylon cells in a transverse configuration. Each cell individually clips onto the pad surround.
. Two cell alternating pressure on a 10 minute cycle
. Welded seams on cells
. Cells are individually replaceable
. Top three cells at head of bed are static
. Two way stretch PVC waterproof, (vapour permeable) cover
ATTACHMENT
Tuck in flaps at the head and foot with attachments for securing under the mattress
PUMP
. Power on indicator
. Analogue pressure control on motor
. Audible power failure alarm
. Visual guide on motor to assist with the setting of the appropriate pressure, according to the user's weight
. Integrated hanging hooks to fit most beds
. Snap fit tube connectors
. Minimal noise and vibration levels
CLEANING REQUIREMENTS
. Wipe over with damp cloth
Options
Pumps can be operated from the "head end" by tubing variations to the mattress. This is to prevent the electric cord from trailing on the floor.
