Alpha Active® 4 system
- Electronic pressure setting which allows accurate and appropriate pressure settings to be set for various weight ranges
- Active/Alternating mode – In addition to a 10 minute cycle time, the Alpha Active 4 system offers the choice of an extended cycle period of 20 minutes, which may be desirable as patients begin to rehabilitate and the risk reduces.
- Reactive / Static mode – cell pressure is equalised to redistribute the body weight over a greater surface area – ideal for patients unable to tolerate a moving surface
- AutoFirm – provides a stable support surface for patient transfer and nursing procedures.
- Audio and visual alarms which include: low-pressure alarm, power fail alarm and pump fault alarm
- Transport Mode – when put into transport mode, the cell pressures of the mattress equalise to provide patient support for up to 12 hours
- Cell-on-Cell – designed to provide additional support and to help increase patient stability
- Ventilated Air Cells – designed to aid airflow within the mattress
- CPR Deflate – rapid deflation for CPR
- Vapour permeable and water-resistant cover, incorporating multi-stretch and bacteriostatic properties
- Modular construction – contributes to ease of cleaning and maintenance
