The Invacare MicroAIR Alternating Pressure Mattress Systems are a powered alternating pressure mattress replacement designed to aid in the prevention and treatment of pressure ulcers (bed sores). The MA65 reduces interface pressure by alternately inflating and deflating 20 individual 8-inch air cell bladders every 5, 10, 15 or 20 minutes. Patients with immobility or perceptual problems who remain bedridden for extended periods can develop open sores at points where the weight of the body compresses the skin, often under bony prominences like the hips or shoulders. These sores are called pressure ulcers. The alternating pressure mattress replacement system helps in pressure ulcer treatment and management by shifting pressure to different parts of the body in a repeating cycle, which prevents any body area from being under pressure all the time. New wireless fowler technology, real time pressure monitoring and energy conserving power units combine to make MicroAIR therapeutic support surfaces the most efficient and dynamic support surfaces in the market Pressure reduction helps the caregiver to prevent and treat Stage I to Stage IV pressure ulcers and promote capillary circulation Horizontal configuration of 20, 8-inch air bladders and a 2" foam safety pad combine to create a full depth 10" pressure reducing mattress replacement system Fits most standard hospital beds Unique and patented designs of the power unit combine comfort and technology for patient relief and inspire caregiver confidence Control panel is designed with icons to provide easy, intuitive operation for caregivers  50 LPM compressor has alarm, alarm silence, and lock out features   Mattress can be set to alternating or static mode  Alternating mode available in treatment times of 5, 10, 15 or 20 minute cycles Max Inflate mode for patient transfers On-Demand Low Air Loss option offers additional prevention and/or treatment of pressure ulcers Mattress has non-skid bottom and secured to bed with 10 nylon web buckled hold-downs Waterproof, anti-microbial dual quilted top cover with slip layer helps protect against friction and shear Mattress will not bottom out with hoses attached to the compressor power unit, even without power Specially designed connectors are inset to help protect them from accidental dislodging when in use  Built-in 2" foam safety pad for additional protection during power outages if hoses are disconnected from power unit Control unit and mattress are latex-free Mattress width available in 36", 42" or 48" wide (choose in options) Weight capacity is 350 lbs. for standard 36" x 80" mattress Weight capacity is 1000 lbs. for 42" and 48" wide mattresses For more information, click HERE To speak with a customer service representative, call 1-800-956-6616
