Cobalt Health Airtec 5 Alternating Pressure Mattress Overlay

The COBALT Health AirTec 5 Alternating Pressure Mattress Overlay is an advanced lightweight overlay to be used on top of a foam medical mattress. It is suitable for users who are considered “at risk” of developing pressure sores and injuries.

The AirTec Automatic Pump

The overlay has a whisper quiet digital AirTec pump featuring intelligent control. The system is very easy to set up and operate for home or facility use, with only the patient weight required to set the appropriate inflation level. Cycle time can be adjusted to 10, 15, 20 or 25 minute programs, or it can be set to static mode if this is desired. The system also features a seat inflate mode, in either alternating or static programs, to provide extra support, particularly in the sacrum area, when the bed backrest is elevated. The AirTec 5 Alternating Pressure Mattress Overlay system has simple visual and audible alarms to alert the caregiver of any system or power error.

The AirTec 5 Mattress Overlay

The AirTec 5 Alternating Pressure Mattress Overlay is made up of 17 5″ cells which operate in an A/B pattern, with individual cells alternating in inflation and deflation. In alternating mode, pressure is periodically redistributed throughout the body in order to mimic natural sleep movement patterns, and to avoid long term pressurisation of tissue which can cause pressure injury.

The cover of the overlay mattress is a stretch TPU material which is breathable and vapour permeable, yet water resistant. This reduces shear and provides a high Moisture Vapour Transfer Rate (MVTR), which further reduces the risk of pressure sores. The cover is easily removed for laundry with a wrap-around covered waterfall zip. The mattress features a manual CPR pull strap to quickly deflate the mattress in an emergency, and is fire retardant.

The AirTec 5 is available in Single or King Single sizes to suit Cobalt Health beds.
