The Drive Premium Therapeutic Gravity 9 foam mattress is uniquely tailored to improve comfort and lower the likelihood of pressure ulcers for those at elevated risk. The mattress is composed of several layers of premium, latex-free foam, featuring a top layer of open-cell, visco-elastic memory foam that enhances immersion and distributes pressure effectively.
This sophisticated foam layer alleviates pressure points by adapting to the body's contours, decreasing the chance of skin breakdown. The base layer includes horizontally scored cuts for articulation that enhance the mattress's durability, prolong its lifespan, and allow it to bend with adjustable bed frames.
Furthermore, the mattress features high-density foam edges that offer strong edge support, enhancing the safety and ease of patient transfers. The heel area features a sloped, channel-cut foam center that alleviates pressure on sensitive heel spots, aiding in the prevention of heel ulcers. The detachable, multi-stretch cover is fluid-repellent, low-shear, and vapor-permeable, safeguarding the skin from friction and moisture, thereby ensuring comfort and skin integrity. The mattress can be obtained with or without elevated side rails to address particular safety requirements.
This mattress supports its users with a weight limit of 450 lbs., offering both comfort and durability. It complies with the flammability criteria of CFR 1632 and CFR 1633, guaranteeing safety. The mattress measures 36 (W) x 84 (L) x 6 (H), ensuring it fits standard bed frames. With a 15-year limited warranty for the foam and a 3-year warranty for the cover, the Gravity foam mattress offers a durable option for patient comfort and care.
