How can decubitis be prevented?
It is usually possible to prevent bedsores from developing or worsening. The patient should be inspected regularly and intensive care is required to avoid decubitis. If the patient is bedridden, sensitive body parts can be protected by specially designed mattresses. A variable pressure mattress whose sections can be individually inflated or deflated to redistribute pressure is amongst the ideal solutions.
KosmoCare Anto-Decubitis Air Pump and Mattress System is ideal for use at home, nursing homes and hospitals.
Specially designed mattress provides variable pressure which automatically changes inflation every 5 minutes, forming an air channel up and dowm in the mattress to redistribute pressure.
The mattress has micro holes which can, via air loss, allow air to pass through and ventilate the patients back.
KosmoCare Anti-Decubitis Air Pump and Mattress System is a therapy which helps to minimize maceration of the skin by removing excess moisture from the surface interface between the skin and the mattress. This plays a positive role in preventing and curing bed sores caused to patients by not being able to turn over on the bed due to long illnesses like paralysis, burns, facture, recovering from an operation or who are permanently confined to bed due to old age.
The system operates very quietly and the mattress can be directly put on the bed. It is light-weigh, portable and easy for transportation. |
