About this product

The Protekt Aire 6000 alternating pressure with low air loss mattress system is available in both an 80-inch or 84-inch (Tall) sleep surface capable of preventing and treating pressure ulcers from Stage I through IV. The 8" high Aire 6000 as a Cell-On-Cell structure design that consists of a 4" top layer of alternating pressure cells over a 4" bottom static air cell layer that will remain inflated in the event of a power outage. The mattress system is available with optional raised side edges to help minimize the risk of user being entrapped between mattress and side rails. An added special feature of the Aire 6000 system is its Seat-Inflate mode (similar to the function of Fowler on some mattresses), which can be activated manually at the control pump to push additional air to the center of the mattress to help prevent the user from "bottoming out"—a phenomenon that can take place with foam or air constructed mattresses when the head section is articulated (inclined) beyond a certain point (around 30-degrees or more) due to the user's upper body weight gravitational shift downward to their buttocks region. The Seat-Inflate feature allows the head section to be articulated at any degree without disengaging the Alternating Pressure feature, compared to mattresses that feature an "Auto Fowler" in which AP mode is automatically turned off.
