Pulsair Choice Mattress

The PULSAIR CHOICE range is designed to bring maximum flexibility of pressure area care to patients in the home care environment. Mix and match the PULSAIR CHOICE power unit with the mattress replacement, mattress overlay or cushion for simple, cost-effective stepping up or down of pressure care for patients at all risks of pressure damage. The Pulsair Choice mattress replacement system is suitable for patients at high risk of pressure ulcers and managing existing pressure damage. The mattress features an active 1-in-4 cycle with TISSUEgard air cell technology with ODS. The unique patented TISSUEgard™ air cell design features a pleated surface giving up to 15% additional support area, allowing the patient to immerse into the mattress, virtually eliminating lateral tension in the mattress surface. This results in reduced pressures, shear and friction, the key contributory factors to tissue damage, and alleviates the need for a dedicated heel zone. The AUTOsupport feature automatically adjusts pressure within each of the cells throughout the cycle so that support, posture and therapy are constantly maintained at optimum levels, in response to patient weight, movement and position. Equalisation of cell pressure automatically takes place at each stage of the cycle, again to ensure precise pressure and therapy is applied. Air cells feature ortho-differential support (ODS) which provides optimum internal cell pressures for varying body weights and shapes, automatically compensating for the patient’s BMI. Narrower in the centre than at the outer edge, air cells feature in-built support pressure differential, supporting the smaller, lighter patient on the softer central area of the cell, and the larger, heavier patient on the firmer outer edges, as well as providing a feeling of security for the patient. Simple, concise operation buttons with autolock feature to prevent inadvertant button operation. Power unit features audio alerts together with LCD screen showing current operation status / fault conditions. Other features include:- CPR function; transport facility; adjustable comfort control; removeable, launderable mattress cover.
