An adjustable width surface that is sympathetic to the needs of plus size patients and offers appropriate pressure redistribution can play a significant role in increasing patient comfort and pressure ulcer prevention. When added to the Citadel Plus bed frame, the combination of the Sapphire Comfort Turn, Sapphire 1100EC or the AtmosAir Plus therapeutic surface supports a seamless bariatric care environment to help facilitate safe and efficient management of the plus size patient weighing up to 454kg.

Powered Surface Options

• The Sapphire 1100EC and the Sapphire Comfort Turn mattress replacement systems are therapeutic mattress systems that are width adjustable, providing active and reactive pressure redistribution and low air loss therapy.
• In addition the Sapphire Comfort Turn provides unilateral and continuous 40° rotation. In full turn mode the control unit has a preset of 3-minute intervals, which can be adjusted from 3 to 20 minutes, 30, 45, 60, 75 or 90 minutes

Non powered surface options

• The AmosAir Plus mattress is designed specifically for the Citadel Plus bedframe. Self-Adjusting Technology (SAT) automatically adjusts cell pressures in response to patient movement.
