The Bodyzone™ 1000 mattress is a 3 layered non-powered pressure redistribution mattress comprised of viscoelastic memory foam which has 40% higher air flow than traditional foam. This 6" thick support surface has an open cell design which lends itself to superior heat dissipation and moisture wicking performance. The proprietary VPF process used to make the viscoelastic foam is environmentally friendly and has virtually zero emissions.
The SMT™ (Surface Modification Technology) design in the Bodyzone™ 1000 mattress provides enhanced pressure redistribution and air circulation as well as reduction of friction and shear. This patented SMT™ process creates surface alterations in pattern, size of pattern, spacing between patterns, and depth of cut. The resulting surface design creates zoned cushioning layers that alternate between firm and enveloping support. Clinically, these zoned cushioning layers enhance pressure redistribution to key high risk areas including the head, shoulders, elbows, sacrum, hips, and heels in addition to better spinal alignment for patients.
The Bodyzone™ 1000 mattress provides support for the supine patient by providing stability, pressure redistribution, and protection against shear forces. Topped with a specially designed waterproof, anti-microbial stretch cover, this cover moves in every direction to minimize the forces of shear and friction when patients are moved, lifted, or turned. The Bodyzone™ 1000 mattress is used as one component of a comprehensive health plan to minimize the breakdown of skin tissue to prevent the development of pressure ulcers or the worsening of pressure ulcers present on the trunk or pelvis.
