DEVICE: DRIVEMEDICAL (00822383577173)

An assembly of devices consisting of an alternating-pressure bed mattress overlay and a dedicated pump, which also functions as the control unit, designed to actively alternate a bed occupant's bed-contact points, typically to relieve pressure points for comfort and to prevent pressure sores. It is commonly used for elderly immobilized (especially in cases of decubitus ulcers), patients with disabilities, or patients with low body fat.

An electrically-powered device that forces ambient air into the parallel chambers of an alternating-pressure bed mattress overlay or an alternating-pressure chair cushion, for the timed alternation of chamber inflation and thereby exchange of patient contact points. The inflator, which may be referred to as a pump and may be programmable, ensures a regular exchange of the overlay/cushion pressure points for the patient.

A pad or thin mattress, usually full-body length, which is placed on top of a bed mattress and designed with parallel chambers that are alternately filled with forced-air to actively change an occupant's bed contact points, typically to relieve pressure points for comfort and to prevent pressure sores. It is commonly used for elderly immobilized (especially in cases of decubitus ulcers), patients with disabilities, or patients with low body fat. This is a reusable device.
