The APM² has been an industry-leading air therapy solution for more than a decade, based in large part on its documented superiority vs. typical, roll-up treatment surfaces. An upgraded cover design and control unit now provide even greater immersion, envelopment, shear reduction, treatment flexibility, caregiver ergonomics and user comfort.
Patented Safety Edge™ with “cradling effect” for user safety
Quiet digital control unit with Auto Firm and Float modes
Alternating Pressure and Lateral Rotation in one surface
With its two distinct therapy modes, the PressureGuard® APM² gives you twice the treatment options. Twice the flexibility. Twice the value. And now enhanced cover and control unit features as well. The cover’s enhanced features include the unique design of the anti-microbial bi-directional stretch cover made with Span’s superior LifeSpan® fabric. LifeSpan® is extremely durable and cleanable and delivers outstanding resistance to chemical breakdown caused by bleach and other harsh disinfectants. Change instantly and easily from alternating pressure to basic lateral rotation with a single, recessed toggle switch. Requires no disconnecting or exchanging of air lines.
The dependable digital control unit is lightweight and quiet. The easy-to-use, white multi-functional control unit provides simple, indexed comfort adjustment and a selectable audible alarm. A timed (20 minute) “Auto Firm” mode facilitates caregiving activities such as transfers, ADLs and CPR and then returns to its previously selected mode.”Alternate Mode” changes loading in a 10-minute cycle of either alternating pressure or lateral rotation therapy as selected at the mattress. “Float” mode provides powered flotation therapy. Indicator lights for “Low pressure” and “Power Failure” give users assurance-at-a-glance of proper function.

"My wonderful wife who is now an octogenarian has been disabled for several years. About two years ago she could no longer ambulate and became bed bound. Even with watchful care she developed a bed sore (severe). An alternating pressure mattress was recommended and we were able to obtain a Span-America PressureGuard APM2. My wife showed significant improvement upon putting the mattress in use. Bed sores are always a concern for a bed bound patient, but using the alternating pressure mattress from Span America, APM2 has reduced our anxiety and fear over this matter. Thank you for an excellent product."
"We had a resident who admitted with intention to die. He admitted from home with a Stage IV with tunneling. The area was so large you could fit an inverted cereal bowl inside the wound. From the time he was in our facility until the time he went home, he was on a PressureGuard APM2 Deluxe. When he left he was completely healed and was able to go back into the community. We have successfully healed three other Stage IV wounds in the past two years on the PressureGuard APM2."
