Mattress Hybrid – Forte Alaise Pumpless Hybrid

AIROFORM RESPONSE IMMERSION INTERFACE LAYER

Key Features

• High open-cell elasticity for temperate stability and to maximise functionality and patient mobility
• Maximises Patient contact with Support Surfaces Providing Pressure Redistribution
• Alleviates localised pressure points
• Anti-microbial treatment applied to foam maximises longevity and core micro-climate
• Conforms to EPUAP, NPUAP & PPPIA Guidelines for quality and comfort
• Firmness: Unique combination of Soft & Medium

4 x ANATOMICALLY ZONED AIR CELL STRUCTURE

• Scapular, Pelvic, Thigh & Heel Zones
• Maximum contact area is achieved using 5 separate ‘banks’ of air cells arranged in zones corresponding to anatomical locations, and a total of 13 individual, self-regulating air cells (on a single)
• Each bank provides tailored immersion and envelopment relative to the specific size and weight of the individual.
• Many systems currently in the market have very little control as to where the air can travel, throughout the entire mattress, and in particular side to side. Air within the Alaise is contained into cells horizontally (4+ Across) to maintain lateral stability and vertically (scapular, pelvic, calf and heel) which are preventing air ‘running away’ to uncontrolled areas of the mattress.

SUPPORT / ANTI-SHEAR RESERVOIR

• allows some air from the sacral region to redistribute to the posterior of the knee.
• The knee pit or popliteal is typically an area of the body that is not in contact with the support surface.

FULL LENGTH & WIDTH PRESSURE CARE SURFACE

• Many Static Air Systems do not include the Heel section of the mattress as part of the Air system, where the air cells stop at the calf area. The Alaise incorporates air cells from head to foot.
• The Alaise will include a Full Width Air System across all sizes from Single through to Queen and King, therefore Pressure Care is then guaranteed
• No matter where an individual is situated on the mattress and no matter what size mattress is used, the Alaise has been designed to always have the air cells across the full width of the mattress.

SLOPED HEEL PRESSURE TRANSFER AND PROTECTION ZONE

• The Calcanei (heels) is one of the most susceptible areas of the body for a Pressure Injury to develop (accounting for approximately 40%).
• The Alaise ensures that the heels are fully protected with dedicated air cells incorporating a heel slope with a softer Immersion area.
• Heel slop Offloads pressure from the patient’s heels and transfers it to calf area
• Unobtrusive, does not require any adjustment

PREMIUM FIRM FOUNDATION LAYER & HINGED STRENGTHENED SIDES

• Increase lateral stability of support surface
• Improves patient safety and encourages central patient positioning
• Make patient transfers easier
• Unique hinge profile sides reduce foam fatigue and allow mattress to easily conform to varied bed positions
• Enables ease of primary patient care
• Provides protection against ‘bottoming-out’ during transfer, repositioning and whilst in the inclined/fowler position
• Provides exceptional comfort, support for repositioning and patient care

SUPER SHEAR INNER COVER

• Low friction, Anti-Shearing Inner cover compartmentalised to segregate the modular regions of the Alaise in turn delivering a series of shear reduction levels
• Dramatically reduces shearing forces at the patient interface
• Fine stretch Lycra based material is wrinkle free and conforms to varied bed position
• Provides additional protection to the mattress core

PREMIFLEX ULTRA PREMIUM BREATHE PRESSURE CARE COVER

• Premiflex PFPU1100 Pressure Care Polyurethane Upper Material: 4-Way Stretch, Vapour Permeable, Purple
• Double Coated Premiflex PFPU1200 Polyurethane Base Material: Robust, Vapour Permeable, Deep Grey
• Full Vapour Permeability
• Infection Control & Compliance: 10,000ppm chlorine based cleaning agent concentration suitability, Inherent Anti-Microbial Protection, Fire retardant, High frequency sealed and welded seams
• Construction: Four-sided / 360° high frequency welded zipper, Zipper waterfall protection flap, High frequency sealed and welded seams, Integrated Carry Handles

EASY MAINTENANCE

• A non-powered, self-regulating system means there is minimal or no training required for set up. There are no settings that need to be adjusted between patient body types or weight.
• Every component is modular and replaceable for low ongoing operational costs
