Description
Protekt 500 Pressure Redistribution Hospital Bed Foam Mattress – New. This mattress uses VGPT (Visco Gel Polymer Technology) for pressure redistribution well beyond traditional foam. It also moves heat away from the body much faster, cutting down on perspiration. In addition, its open-cell design gives a real boost in breathability compared to standard foam mattresses.
This design of the Protekt 500 offers more support and less cradling at higher compression, spreading pressure over a wider surface area. Meanwhile, a 30-degree heel slope protects the vulnerable heel area by shifting pressure to the leg. The PTSS rail system also gives extra support for easy patient transfer and edge-of-bed sitting.
