Anti-decubitus mattress topper for patients up to 135 kg with ulcers up to stage III

Anti-decubitus mattress. The mattress is the ideal alternating pressure surface for treating stage I pressure ulcers. It also helps prevent their development when the risk
It is low (Braden Scale).
The pressure-relieving mattress is made of polyvinyl chloride, a highly flexible material. It consists of channels that are alternately inflated by an air compressor connected to an electrical outlet. This movement continuously changes the pressure on different areas of the body, thus improving blood circulation.

The pressure-relieving mattress effectively distributes weight to prevent ulcers and promote the healing of existing ones. It minimizes pressure on the most sensitive areas for better protection.

Anti-decubitus mattresses

Pressure-relieving mattresses are used for people who have to spend long periods of time in bed, as continuous pressure on bony prominences can cause injuries. This is because it impedes proper blood circulation and, consequently, tissue nourishment. Wounds develop that lead to necrosis and ulceration, known as pressure sores. Beyond the discomfort and pain these wounds can cause, it has been shown that they negatively impact patient mortality rates. Quality of life is substantially diminished, and the periods of bed rest for affected individuals are prolonged. In this article, we will discuss a solution to this common yet serious problem: pressure-relieving mattresses, including their prices and types.

Alternating therapy

It is based on alternating, uniform changes in cell pressure to provide better pressure redistribution for the patient and prevent pressure points on the mattress. The 1-2 cell system alternates between cells for 10-minute cycles. This therapy improves blood circulation and achieves very low capillary occlusion rates, preventing pressure ulcers.

Pillow Function

Thanks to the continuous pressure inside the three cells of the headboard, it functions similarly to a pillow. The fact that the internal pressure of the headboard cells remains constant prevents the user's head from moving, reducing discomfort and the risk of injury.
