The UltraMax pressure redistribution support surface is a highly engineered solution to prevent pressure ulcers and provide consistent, comfortable support for patients. The innovative design integrates Ultra High Performance (UHP) foam, which features a 55% higher support factor, offering superior resiliency and recovery. This foam is strategically placed in high-fatigue areas like the seat section to provide the necessary support, helping to reduce the risk of bottoming out and ensuring the patient stays comfortable for extended periods.
The fluid-resistant and antimicrobial cover is built to withstand frequent use while maintaining cleanliness and hygiene. It also features a flapped zipper for easy cover removal and cleaning. One of the standout features of the UltraMax surface is its silicone-coated, shear-minimizing fabric bands located on the underside of the cover, which help protect sensitive areas like the heels, sacrum, and scapula from harmful shear forces. This unique design minimizes both micro and macro shear, including rotational shear caused by patient movement.
The 3-Dimensional Zoning technology further enhances the surface by providing anatomically calibrated levels of support and immersion, promoting better weight distribution and reducing the likelihood of pressure ulcers. This surface is ideal for use in hospitals, nursing homes, or home care environments where patient safety, comfort, and pressure ulcer prevention are critical. With its advanced design, the UltraMax surface ensures patients receive the best possible care.
