| Abstract: | The range of support surfaces available is quite varied. It is important that both the purchaser and the users are satisfied with the quality, comfort and the pressure-reducing properties of the mattress. The mattress needs to be versatile, in that it can be used both in a patient's home or in a hospital or nursing home and also on profiling beds. The Kaymed range of mattresses offers increased comfort with low interface pressures for patients up to and including high risk. This product focus examines the Kaymed mattress and looks at the design and results of tests performed on the visco-elastic foam used in the manufacturing of the mattresses. |
