Protekt 500 Pressure Relieving Foam Mattress

The Protekt 500 Pressure Relieving Foam Mattress utilizing VGPT (Visco Gel Polymer Technology) represents an innovation in comfort and pressure relief. This groundbreaking surface aims to minimize the likelihood of pressure sores by providing excellent pressure redistribution and improved heat dissipation.

Conventional foam mattresses typically struggle to effectively release heat, resulting in discomfort and sweating. The Protekt 500, on the other hand, disperses heat from the body much more rapidly, resulting in a cooler atmosphere and inhibiting moisture accumulation. This results in a sleep surface that is more comfortable, dry, and healthy.

The VGPT technology facilitates pressure redistribution by offering increased support at elevated compression levels, minimizing cradling and pressure accumulation. A distinctive aspect of the Protekt 500 is its 30-degree heel incline, which shifts pressure from the sensitive heel area to the whole leg, offering improved protection and comfort. Furthermore, the PTSS Rail System offers additional assistance for patient transfers and sitting on the bed's edge. The stretch nylon top layer provides a low-friction, shear-reducing surface that is fluid-resistant and antimicrobial, improving hygiene and safety for patients.

The triple laminate vinyl bottom cover is fluid-resistant, antimicrobial, and fire-retardant, providing durability and adherence to safety standards. The Protekt 500 has a weight limit of 500 lbs., is offered in several widths, and includes a 15-year warranty for the core and a 2-year warranty for the cover. Optional elevated rails can be provided for extra support.
