Product Description

The Air Mattress Care vision is an anti-decubitus (anti-pressure ulcer) mattress designed primarily for individuals who are at risk of developing bedsores or pressure ulcers due to prolonged immobility. This mattress utilizes a dynamic air pressure system that helps redistribute pressure across the body, enhancing comfort and improving circulation.

• Size Options: Typically comes in sizes to fit standard hospital beds (e.g., 90 cm x 190 cm or 36” x 75”).

• Weight Capacity: Usually designed to support users up to 110-130 kg (approximately 300-330 lbs).

• Material: The cover is made of medical-grade, waterproof, pvc material and breathable fabric, often with anti-bacterial properties to promote hygiene and prevent infections.

• Ease of Use: Lightweight and easy to install, often with simple connectors for inflation and deflation.

Key Features

1. Dynamic Air Pressure System

   • Uses alternating air cells that inflate and deflate in a continuous cycle to reduce pressure on the skin. This system helps maintain blood circulation and oxygen flow, which is crucial for preventing tissue damage.

   • Offers adjustable pressure settings to cater to individual needs and comfort levels.

2. Anti-Decubitus Design

   • Specifically designed to combat the formation of pressure ulcers by providing constant relief to vulnerable pressure points (e.g., heels, elbows, and hips).

   • The air mattress helps in reducing friction between the patient’s body and the mattress surface, which can be a contributing factor to the development of sores.

3. Low Air Loss Functionality

   • Some Care vision mattresses come equipped with a low air loss function which helps keep the skin dry by dispersing moisture from the skin surface, reducing the likelihood of skin breakdown.

4. Comfortable and Supportive

   • The alternating air cells provide a comfortable sleeping experience by adjusting to the contours of the body.

   • The mattress is designed to maintain a stable, consistent comfort level throughout the night.

5. Inflation Pump

   • Comes with an inflation pump that can be adjusted for firmness and alternating pressure cycles.

   • The pump operates quietly, and many models offer continuous air circulation to maintain proper air pressure at all times.

6. Durability and Safety

   • Made with strong, puncture-resistant material that is designed to last.

   • The mattress includes reinforced seams and durable construction to withstand prolonged use in healthcare settings.

   • Includes safety features such as anti-slip materials on the bottom of the mattress to keep it securely in place on the bed frame.

7. Easy to Clean and Maintain

   • The waterproof cover makes cleaning easy and helps in maintaining hygiene.

   • Some models offer removable, washable covers to ensure easy care and longevity.

   • Anti-bacterial surface to further enhance hygiene and reduce the risk of infections.

8. Portable and Lightweight

   • Ideal for home care or hospital settings due to its lightweight and portable design.

   • Can be easily deflated and rolled up for storage or transportation.

9. User-Friendly Controls

   • Most models come with a simple control unit to adjust settings, monitor air pressure, and customize comfort levels.

   • Some units also offer visual and audible alerts to indicate the air pressure is within the correct range.

Functions

1. Pressure Redistribution
   The primary function of the Carevision Air Mattress is to redistribute pressure across the body. Alternating air cells inflate and deflate to ensure there’s no prolonged pressure on any single area, thereby reducing the risk of pressure ulcers.

2. Improvement in Circulation
   By alternating air flow, the mattress helps improve blood circulation, which is vital for healing and skin health. Proper circulation prevents tissue ischemia (lack of blood supply), which is the primary cause of bedsores.

3. Prevention and Treatment of Pressure Ulcers
   This air mattress is designed both for prevention and treatment of stage 1 to stage 4 pressure ulcers. It can be used by patients with a wide range of risk factors, including those recovering from surgery, patients with limited mobility, or individuals in critical care.

4. Low Air Loss and Moisture Management
   The mattress manages moisture by reducing sweat and skin contact, helping to prevent maceration (softening of the skin due to excessive moisture). This function is particularly useful for patients who may have incontinence issues or other conditions leading to excessive moisture on the skin.

5. Customization of Pressure and Comfort
   Users can adjust the air pressure to suit their personal comfort level or specific medical needs. This can help provide the ideal balance of firmness and softness to cater to different body types and preferences.

6. Continuous Monitoring
   Many Carevision models come with built-in sensors or alarms that alert caregivers when the mattress is under or overinflated, ensuring optimal pressure levels are maintained.
