AM02 How an air compression mattress helps prevent bedsores?

April 02, 2025

VU-AM02/ air compression mattress prevents bedsores by employing a dynamic pressure redistribution mechanism. The mattress consists of multiple independent air cells that cyclically inflate and deflate, continuously shifting the points of contact between the body and the mattress. This alternating pressure reduces prolonged compression on any single area, preventing the occlusion of blood flow that leads to tissue breakdown. By promoting blood circulation and oxygen delivery to the skin, it supports tissue health and accelerates wound healing.

Additionally, the breathable material of the mattress maintains skin dryness, minimizing friction and moisture-related irritation. Together, these features create a microenvironment that effectively mitigates the risk of pressure ulcers, enhancing comfort and care for bedridden patients.
