The RIK Fluid Overlay is a non-powered, fluid-based mattress overlay that provides pressure redistribution through immersion and envelopment.

Early mobilization has been demonstrated to be both safe and feasible for patients admitted to critical care.

Early mobilization of ICU patients has been associated with improved muscle strength and functional independence, as well as a shorter duration of delirium, mechanical ventilation, and ICU length of stay.

The significance of early mobility in the rehabilitation of war veterans cannot be overstated. In fact, muscle wasting occurs early and rapidly during the first week of critical illness, with losses of up to 20% seen for those in multi organ failure.

In the pursuit of optimizing the rehabilitation journey for our esteemed veterans, the Veterans Administration (VA) has developed the Mobility Screening and Solutions Tool. This tool aims to enhance early mobilization and improve the functional outcomes of veterans.

Intensive care unit (ICU) patients frequently have extreme derangement of physiological function.

The First Step® Cirrus is a Low Air Loss overlay (when used on an existing mattress) or a mattress replacement system (MRS) (when used with the optional foam base) designed to prevent and treat pressure injuries by managing pressure redistribution and skin microclimate.

Empowering movement is fundamental to any patient rehabilitation program and is a core principle in the prevention of pressure injury development. With the impact of the current pandemic, the focus on mobilizing and rehabilitating patients earlier and often, throughout the day, has never been higher.

For the past decade, September has been designated as World Alzheimer’s Month to raise awareness internationally of this devastating disease, with World Alzheimer's Day celebrated annually on September 21.

Mobility is defined as the ability to move in one’s environment with ease and without restrictions.
