Invacare® Softform Active® 2 with RX pump

3 Product Overview

3.1 Product description

The Invacare® Softform Active® 2 Rx mattress system acts
as a static pressure reducing support/mattress for patients
at High/Very High risk that can, by facilitating the air pump,
introduce effective alternating pressure if the patients
condition requires alternating pressure therapy.
The water-resistant cover provides a vapor-permeable, multi
stretch surface, to promote patient comfort and to maximise
the effectiveness of the foam core.
The mattress is the only part intended to come into
physical contact with the patient (the only applied part with
temperature of maximum 41.1 °C)

3.2 Intended Use

This pressure redistribution mattress and control unit are
intended to be used in conjunction with an appropriately
sized bed frame.
The mattress can be used safely in static mode for static
pressure redistribution, or in dynamic mode should an
alternating pressure support surface be required.
This product delivers effective pressure redistribution to
users, when the support surface is covered with a cotton,
cotton combination or linen bed sheet, and any one of these
is the only item deployed between the support surface and
the user.

3.2.1 Indications

Suitable for supporting the management of all categories
of pressure injuries when combined with an individual and
comprehensive pressure injury protocol.
Suitable for use in home care, residential, nursing and acute
care settings.

3.2.2 Contraindications

Not suitable for users with unstable spinal cord fractures
and/or cervical traction.
