What is 'Fowler Boost' and how does it benefit your patients/residents..

In simple terms the 'Single Point Fowler Boost' feature in the Air 2 Care dynamic mattress acts to automatically increases the level of pressure in the seat section when the back rest is raised above 30°

Minimising risk of 'Bottoming out while sitting

Bottoming out' is a term used to describe a situation in which a pressure- reducing surface does not provide enough adequate support, which in effect causes the weight of the person lying on top of it to be transferred to the bed base exposing them to an increased risk of pressure related injury.

With the automatic detection of the raised back rest reaching 30 degrees the Air 2 Care dynamic mattress intelligently starts to increase air inflation to help combat this action. This helps to prevent the person from 'bottoming out' when sitting up

A handy standard feature to guarantee skin protection and increase patient comfort and safety. Also providing added reassurance for the care giver without any added responsibility or stress of being able to operate the feature with ease.
