PressureGuard® Bariatric APM provides advanced pressure management for enhanced comfort and safety in bariatric patients. Segmented top reduces sharp pressure drop-offs, while air system below handles the “heavy lifting,” alternating weight-bearing across the surface in user-selectable intervals. “Two up, one down” inflation pattern ensures maximum patient support throughout the cycle.
Bariatric surface with 750 lbs weight limit suitable for aggressive treatment
Prevention of pressure ulcers in immobile/high risk users (through Stage IV)
Alternating Pressure therapy with gentle, effective pressure changes
Unlike other alternating pressure mattresses, the PressureGuard® Bariatric APM does not create extreme pressure gradients between inflated and deflated cylinders. On top, the Geo-Matt® anti-shearing surface forms a comfortable, therapeutic interface between the air system and the user. It absorbs and smoothes sharp pressure drop-offs that other surfaces can’t, while the air system does the “heavy lifting” below, alternating weight-bearing across the surface in ten-minute cycles. Six cylinders are programmed to inflate/deflate in a four-up-two-down pattern, ensures maximum patient support throughout the cycle. Other standard PressureGuard features include the exclusive Heel Slope taper, and two-part Safety-Edge bolster system for added stability when sitting or transferring.
