Bariatric Alternating Pressure Mattress with Three Layers, Bed Pan Access and Inflatable Guardrail | OB-3682B UltraAir

Delivering unrivaled comfort and support for larger adults living with pressure ulcers, the ObboMed 3682B UltraAir Bariatric Mattress also helps its users prevent pressure injuries. Robust and innovative, it accommodates an 800-pound weight capacity and provides a patented 15-degree self-lateral rotation to help users move independently within the bed. The rotation direction can also be fixed to provide added treatment to particularly problematic sores and ulcers. The continuously deflating and inflating cone-shaped air cells combined with true low air loss therapy redistribute the user's weight to alleviate pressure points and stimulate blood flow to prevent and/or treat bedsores.

Helping to meet the unique requirements of each bariatric user, the mattress construction offers adjustable 15-degree, 25-degree, and 40-degree lateral rotation angles. These varying rotation angles are especially beneficial in helping individuals who suffer from pulmonary conditions or those who need extra movement while in bed, such as a person living with paralysis or other immobility conditions.

Multilayered and 12 inches deep, the ultra-comfortable ObboMed OB-3682B mattress is powered with a whisper-quiet 50-LPM pump providing consistent air movement between the various air cell chambers. Conveniently vapor-permeable to optimize breathability, this UltraAir mattress keeps users dry with efficient moisture removal into the airflow, away from the mattress's top layer.

One of the 3682B's amazing features is its patented inflatable guardrail. When coupled with the mattress's ability to sink as alternating and self-lateral-wave-rotation are activated, the guardrail and side bolster create a soft barrier 9 inches tall to keep the patient safe within the confines of the mattress surface even during 40-degree rotation. These features also allow caregivers to access and care for patients easily, creating a win-win situation within the health care space.

The patented Easy Go bedpan allows one caregiver to perform the sometimes difficult bedpan functions for bariatric patients. With a push of a button on the control panel, a recessed opening on the mattress is activated, allowing the mattress system to deflate within twenty seconds at the buttock area of the mattress cover sheet. This action creates a space where a bedpan can be quickly and easily inserted directly on the top sheet and then quickly removed, avoiding a lengthy two-person preparation procedure.

The massager within the mattress features seven vibration massagers operated by a microprocessor to support eight different massage modes ranging from subtle to deep massage. The massage motion can reduce tension, increase metabolism, ease pain, and support enhanced blood flow while reducing muscle fatigue. The fowler, or seating design, is another benefit that conveniently supports the user when they're in a sitting position on the seat/torso section of the mattress when the head of the bed is raised. The fowler also prevents the possibility of the user from bottoming out onto the more rigid surface of the bed.
