Very High Risk Pressure Relief

This full mattress replacement system uses Dynamic Therapy technology to constantly circulate air in order to provide consistent and reliable pressure relief. Adjusting to the patient's body, this mattress works to reduce pressure on vulnerable areas, making it suitable for those at very high risk of pressure sore development.

Adjusts to User's Body Shape

The Therawave 8 will automatically adjust to the user's body shape and position, providing customised relief and optimum pressure care. The Dynamic Therapy system results in lower interface pressures that gently stimulate capillaries, ensuring no area endures an undue level of pressure.

Moisture and Shear Management

Moisture and humidity can exacerbate pressure sore risk, so it's important that this mattress is designed to reduce these risk factors. By managing moisture, tissue breakdown and skin maceration will be prevented, greatly reducing the risk of sore development. The mattress also features shear and friction protection, ensuring patients aren't put at risk by movement.

Dermagrade Cover

This system is supplied with a Dermagrade PU cover, designed for easy cleaning and mattress protection. Fire retardant to Standards BS7175 Crib 5, this cover is clinically effective against viruses and bacteria, and has proven resistance to MRSA.

Easy and Safe Use

The pump of this mattress features simple controls, reducing the need for complex training. A static mode provides a stable surface for easy transfers, while care-friendly side positioning handles and an anti-slip base make transfers and patient handling safe and efficient for users and carers alike.
