Pressure relief | 10 minute alternating 2-cell cycle provides effective pressure variation through rapid air cell deflation. |
Solenoid technology | Enhances pressure relief by providing a more efficient flow of air in and out of the cells therefore a superior reactive hyperaemic response in the deep tissues about the bony prominences |
Ultrasonically welded cell structure | All cells in each layer are ultrasonically welded together to eliminate the risk of the patient ‘bottoming out’ whilst also preventing air cell encroachment. |
Easily accessible CPR | Intuitive, always visible and accessible CPR release valve located on umbilical provides rapid deflation in approx. 10 seconds. |
Integrated side formers | Permanently inflated side formers provide a firm mattress edge to ensure patient stabilisation and fall prevention (NSQHS standard 10) during exits or transferring to a trolley/chair. |
Comfort control | Adjustable comfort control to Soft and Firm within both Static and Dynamic modes provide nursing staff with the ability to adjust air cell inflation pressures to suit individual patient comfort or clinical requirements. |
Timed Static mode | Provides a firm and stable surface for essential nursing procedures such as physiotherapy and wound cleaning. A safety automatic return to Dynamic mode after 30 minutes ensures that patients are not put at risk of pressure damage. |
30 hour Transport mode | Easy to operate one way valve lets mattress remain inflated for at least 30 hours and also facilitates patient/bed movement without unnecessary risk to patient. |
Audible and visual alarms | A sophisticated set of audible and visual alarm functions provide enhanced patient safety and ensures peace of mind for nursing staff. |
Securing straps | Adjustable heavy duty nylon straps allow the NoDec A Airstream to be safely secured to a base mattress. |
Dartex cover with welded seams | Soft, easy to clean, waterproof Dartex cover provides a complete barrier against viruses and blood, minimising infection control risks. |
