How to choose — mattress

Hybrid Mattress is a mattress that combines both foam and air and can be used either as static mattresses or as dynamic therapy surfaces to mitigate the risk of pressure ulcers.

Static Foam Mattress is a foam mattress that is designed to provide care, pressure relief and comfort to the user. Unlike the alternating air mattress and the hybrid mattress, this type of mattress is static. Some of the designs have a combination of foams to increase comfort, longevity and effective patient care.

Mattress overlay is mattress cover designed to aid in the prevention and treatment of pressure ulcers, and to add extra comfort to the user. We have gel, air, foam and sheepskin overlays available.

Alternating Air Pressure Mattress is a mattress designed to promote skin integrity and prevent skin breakdown. Those mattresses have air-filled cells that alternately fill and empty to keep bearing weight off the bony prominences of immobilised or weak patients who are unable to shift their weight frequently.
