SUPPORT PATIENT RECOVERY

HybriMatt offers a wide range of active modes to support patient recovery.

CHALLENGES

Patient with an existing category I of pressure injuries can be in high risk of developing category II and higher.(1)
Patient with Hospital Acquired Pressure Injuries stays in hospital 9.5 days longer.(2)
The higher category of pressure injury the more time is needed for healing. (3)

Alternating pressure therapy IAPT), constant low pressure (CLP) and MAX modes are available to support patient’s recovery.

• The alternating pressure therapy mode (APT) is a system where cells inflate and deflate reducing pressure periodically.

• The constant lowpressure mode (CLP) enables equal internal pressure in cells to support patient’s comfort.

• The MAX mode inflates the mattress to make it firmer and more stable to support nursing procedures.
