Drive Medical 14027 Med-Aire Alternating Pressure Low Air Loss Mattress System is a pressure mattress system providing both alternating pressure and static pressure. The air mattress pump provides alternating pressure and is designed to be used in the prevention, treatment, and management of pressure ulcers. The air pump produces consistent air flow and is "whisper quiet." The EZ Lock Quick Release Tubing Connector locks the pump and mattress together. Pressure tabs on the EZ Lock allow easy connection and quick disconnect. This low air loss mattress has 20 air bladders. Nine (9) of the bladders are equipped with laser holes to achieve the low air loss function, which increases patient comfort, keeps the patient cool, and speeds recovery.
