Safe sleeping conditions are essential when assisting patients who are vulnerable to bed sores and ulcers. The Low Air Loss Mattress, Visco Select with Stretch Cover from Medline, provides caretakers and patients with 2 therapeutic mattress options, each with alternating pressure distributed across multiple air cells.
The MedTech Air is a budget-friendly option with high-performance features for pain relief. It uses blower-based technology to control the amount of pressure distribution. But it also helps monitor how much moisture and friction the mattress gives off. This is especially important for patients vulnerable to bed sores. There is an auto firm setting and rapid setting, which inflates the mattress in under a minute.
MedTech AirMax is a premium mattress with additional features. It includes a true air loss feature and auto-firm personalized comfort. In addition, it has a system lock that keeps the setting from changing during treatment. This can prevent injuries to the patient from accidental inflation or deflation. In addition, the Low Air Loss Max Mattress Model has 4-in. bolsters, providing additional support.
The cover is designed to reduce friction and provide comfort to the patient lying on top. It is removable, so you can clean it separately from the mattress for optimal hygiene.
Both mattresses have a 5-year warranty, ensuring that they last longer in hospitals and nursing homes. They can also support up to 400 lbs., making them a great option for many adult patients.
