1. Comfort Weight Settings Button
The "Comfort Setting" controls the air pressure output based on the patient's weight.
When patient's weight setting is increased (
When the patient's weight setting is decreased (
decrease. When a patient's condition has significantly changed, reassess the comfort
weight setting level. A hand check is needed to determine if patient is bottoming out.
When a patient's condition has significantly changed, reassess appropriateness of prod-
uct and comfort setting level.
NOTE: Maximum weight 400lbs.
NOTE: Check if the pressure is suitable for the patient by sliding one hand
beneath the air cells at the level of the patient's buttocks. Always leave at least
1" inch space between patient and the static cell to prevent bottoming out.
2. Therapy Modes Button
A. Static
Redistribute body mass over a greater surface area at a constant air pressure based on
your Comfort Weight setting.
B. Alternating Pressure
1-in-2 alternating cell cycle achieves periodic pressure relief. There are four selectable
cycle times available: 5, 10, 15, 20 minutes. Caregivers can select one of the four cycle
times based upon patient comfort and desired outcome.
C. Pulsation
Encourage lymph and blood flow for increased oxygenation. The entire mattress pulsates
between a decreased and increased pressure level in all cells every 15 seconds.
D. Seat Inflate
The Seat Inflation features additional support to the patient during head raised position
(Fowler), ingress, and egress for the prevention of bottoming out.
NOTE: When head of bed is elevated 30 degrees or higher, it is recommended
the caregiver engage Seat Inflate to prevent possible bottoming out.
NOTE: Every time the mattress is initialized (inflated), it will automatically go
to "Auto Firm" mode to hasten inflation. Once the system is ready to use, the
system will automatically begin in static mode or revert to the previously set
therapy mode.
