Upright positioning in bed for highly dependent patients

Maxi Air is an air-assisted single patient use system that provides an effective solution for reducing the physical effort and injury risk associated with performing lateral transfers.

The Sara Flex wipeable standing sling in conjunction with the lift enables a single caregiver to assist a patient or resident from a seated to a standing position, in one natural movement. Completely wipeable with no stitching, it can be wiped between patients or residents. The sling design helps to reduce the cross-contamination risks associated with shared patient handling devices with no laundering requirement.

Designed for the prevention and management of pressure ulcers¹, the Alpha Active® 4 pressure redistributing mattress replacement system is suitable for a range of care environments, including home and community care settings.

Healthcare settings face the challenge of managing an effective Infection Control protocol on a daily basis. Ensuring the safety of patients and staff at all times, in a range of different settings requires a robust process, where care and treatment can be delivered without the risk of infection due to poor hygiene standards.

There is significant clinical evidence supporting that early patient mobility as part of an Intensive Care Unit (ICU) rehabilitation program help counter the effects of ICU acquired weakness, which in turn improves the patient recovery process and long-term functional outcome. (Morris. 2007)

Reduced mobility is a significant risk factor for pressure injury development, international guidelines emphasise the need for regular turning and repositioning of patients to help prevent skin damage¹. While a pressure redistribution mattress may enable the repositioning regimen to be individualised, regular postural change is still important but not without risk to the patient or caregiver.

Designed for high acuity patients with limited mobility and compromised skin integrity, the Auralis Alternating Pressure Mattress System assists you in managing your patient’s needs to minimise the risk and burden of pressure ulcer.
