FEATURES
Alternating Pressure & Micro-Low Air Loss: These mattresses utilize a cell-in-cell design with alternating air cycles to redistribute pressure periodically. This mechanism prevents constant pressure on bony prominences while maintaining low air loss to reduce shear and friction, ideal for patients prone to ulcers.
Targeted Heel Protection: Enhanced cushioning is often incorporated into the lower air cells to provide specific protection for fragile heels. This targeted design reduces shear stress on vulnerable areas during therapy, lowering the risk of heel breakdown.
Adjustable Therapy Levels: Electronic controls typically offer multiple adjustable comfort levels to accommodate specific patient requirements. Tycon Medical specialists can assist with selecting the optimal setting to ensure ideal comfort and therapeutic efficacy for each user.
Durable, Infection-Control Cover: Covers are constructed from woven polyester with a PVC lining to facilitate infection control and durability. The low-friction surface design enhances patient safety by minimizing skin damage during movement and repositioning.
