Product Description

Unlike other alternating pressure mattresses, the PressureGuard APM won’t create extreme pressure gradients between inflated and deflated cylinders.

On top, the Geo-Matt anti-shearing surface forms a comfortable, therapeutic interface between the air system and the user. It absorbs and smooths sharp pressure drop-offs that other surfaces can’t, while the air system does the “heavy lifting” below, alternating weightbearing across the surface in ten-minute cycles. 

Features 

– Bacteriostatic top fabric is fluid-proof, fire resistant, tear resistant, cleanable, and replaceable.

– Comfort dial provides firmness control without compromising pressure redistribution.

– Choice of Modes: Alternate (cylinders inflate and deflate in a fixed 8-minute cycle) or Float.

– Visual low pressure indicator.

– Head-to-foot air cylinders for better pressure reduction.

– Better support in seat area when head of bed is raised.

– Individual foam cells accommodate bony prominences.

– 2 po deep topper reduces shear to underlying tissues.

– More than 800 individually-articulating cells.

– Redistributes pressure, reduces heat and skin moisture buildup.

– Heel Slope designed to further reduce heel pressure.

– Patented inner bolster “cradling effect” for user safety.

– Unmatched edge-of-bed stability.

– Helps ensure safer transfers.

– Minimizes risk of falls and entrapment.

– Weight limit : 350 lbs.
