<br />
Recently we received a call from a customer that had her alternating pressure mattress for 8 years. During the night her alternating pressure mattress "sank" in the center causing her to sink into a hole. Lucky she owned the<a href="http://www.alternatingpressuremattress.com/3000.html" target="_blank"> PM8080 mattress</a>, the system with a cell in cell design that has an emergency static cell that remains inflated at all times. The cell in cell is designed to offer a 3 " layer of protection and is used during power failures or leaks. It prevents the patient from making contact with the medical bed frame.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.alternatingpressuremattress.com/">www.alternatingpressuremattress.com</a><br />
<br />
The customer assumed her mattress was too old and in her words on its way "out" She called and wanted a new mattress. Before offering her a new mattress I asked a few simple questions.<br />
<br />
#1 Is you CPR valves closed? The CPR is a plug at the head of the mattress that is designed to let air out of the mattress in the event the patient needs CPR. Past experience has taught me that sometimes a caretake changes the sheets and pulls on the tags releasing air from the bed by accident. You can make sure the plugs are back in place and "problem solved" Back to new!<br />
<br />
In this situation the patients CPR tags we closed and I moved on to the next question.<br />
<br />
#2 Have you checked the connectors on the cell? What is that she asked?? There are plastic tubes that come out of the air hoses in your mattress. These plastic tubes are connected to the actual cell of the mattress. If a mattress leaks air or if an area develops a depression or hole, it can be a leak in the cell. The good news is all of our cells can be replaced!!. The customer looked and identified the problem. The cells plastic tube had become separated from the cell. This did not allow enough air pressure to build up in the system causing her to bottom out. Even better news the customer can replace just the cell without having to buy a new mattress system. This little "trick" just saved my customer $1400.00<br />
<br />
<br />
I have attached a picture of here cell to show what it looks like.<br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-weight: 300;">Stage I pressure ulcers may be difficult to identify because they are not
readily visible and they present with greater variability. Advanced technology
(not commonly available in nursing homes) has shown that a Stage I pressure
ulcer may have minimal to substantial tissue damage in layers beneath the
skin’s surface, even when there is no visible surface penetration. The Stage I
indicators identified below will generally persist or be evident after the pressure
on the area has been removed for 30 to 45 minutes.

subcutaneous tissue that may extend down to, but not through, underlying

</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-weight: 300;">By the definition in Tag F314 - regardless of color, temperature, consistency, or sensation - the skin of a Stage I pressure
ulcer is intact. If the skin is dark purple or very deep in color but intact, it may be a deep tissue injury or DTI. DTI is
not a simple Stage I, it could indicate that the damage is deeper, including subcutaneous tissue, muscle, bone, joint
capsule or other supporting structures. Unlike a Stage I (that is caught in a timely fashion), a DTI may not resolve or
improve with prevention measures like offloading. Confusion also lies in the classification of Stage II (partial-thickness)
and Stage III or IV (full-thickness) pressure ulcers. To clear things up, use the following assessment criteria.

</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-weight: 300;">If the injury goes through the epidermis and into, but not
through, the dermis, it is a Stage II (partial-thickness) wound.
If there is any necrotic tissue in the wound, it cannot be a
Stage II ulcer. Also, the wound edge in a Stage II pressure
ulcer will be at the same height as the intact skin. As long as
all wound healing factors have been addressed, these ulcers
often heal quickly. Each hair follicle acts as a “wound edge.”
The epithelial cells lining the follicle migrate, allowing tissue
to regenerate, and spread out from each hair follicle.

</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-weight: 300;">A Stage III or Stage IV pressure ulcer goes through the
epidermis and the dermis. The dermis itself never regenerates.
The void or “dead space” must fill with new granulation tissue
(beefy, red, bumpy tissue) whose blood supply comes from<br />
a process called angiogenesis (the formation of new blood
vessels). Full-thickness wounds only heal from the edges
inward; this is why they take longer to heal. The granulation
tissue needs to reach skin surface before epithelialization<br />
and contraction or resurfacing can occur. </span></span></span><br />

The bariatric alternating mattress was designed for larger patients that needed the extra weight capacity or width to the mattress for transfer purposes.<br />
<br />
Recently we have seen many of the bariatric alternating mattresses used to replace a full or <a href="http://www.alternatingpressuremattress.com/bariatricair.html" target="_blank">queen size</a> mattress so the patient does not need to modify their existing bed. There is no longer a need to transfer from your queen size mattress to a standard alternating pressure mattress. patients can now purchase these larger full and <a href="http://www.alternatingpressuremattress.com/bariatricair.html" target="_blank">queen size</a>s for use with their existing box springs.<br />

The most popular and first line of bed sore prevention is using an <a href="http://www.alternatingpressuremattress.com/app-pads.html" target="_blank">alternating pressure pad </a>system.

<br />
The <a href="http://www.alternatingpressuremattress.com/app-pads.html" target="_blank">alternating pressure pads</a> are offered in a standard and deluxe model. The difference between the systems are the standard models set to a maximum inflate and then alternate under the patient to reduce pressure and stimulate blood flow. The deluxe alternating pressure pads include the same features but the pump allows you to adjust the firmness or softness of the pad. <br />
<br />
These alternating pressure overlays are also very compact and can fit nicely in a suitcase or carry on. These <a href="http://www.alternatingpressuremattress.com/app-pads.html" target="_blank">alternating pressure pads</a> are ideal for a travel situation. The weight is about 12 lbs and can be used in hotels, nursing homes, home healthcare, campers , etc.<br />
<br />
Ideal for a patient on a budget. These <a href="http://www.alternatingpressuremattress.com/overlay.html" target="_blank">alternating pressure overlays</a> are a great solution for short term care. <br />

<br />
True low air loss therapy uses a blower pump to remove excess moisture
while immersing the patient into the mattress. Low air loss is defined
both by the effectiveness of moisture control and method of moisture
control. With the low air loss mattress, moisture is dissipated between
the mattress and the cover. The baffles have tiny holes which
continually blow air. The moisture from the patient transfers through
the vapour permeable fabric cover to interact with the air blowing up
from the mattress. This process keeps the patient cool and dry without
blowing air directly onto the patient. While reduction of excess
moisture is a distinguishing feature of low air loss mattresses, their
primary objective is still to immerse the patient into the surface for
increased contact area and even redistribution of pressure so blood flow
is maintained for areas of high risk.<br />
