My grandmother passed away in 2005 after a short bout with dementia.. She developed a Tunneling pressure sore that popped up, and "Tunneled" unbelievably fast. My parents asked hospice to put her on a version of this mattress, but it was too late by then. My father passed away after a long fight with Covid in March of this year. JUST as we thought he was going to pull through, the nurses at the care facility showed me a tiny pressure sore they had noticed on my father that day. The facility was more geared toward "Mobile Patients" that were going to go home again", so they didn't have the Pressure Mattresses... I ordered this mattress on our way back home while we were driving 5 hours, and I had it shipped to my Dad's house overnight, so another family member could drive it 5 minutes away to the care facility when it arrived... Through a series of dropped balls, the mattress didn't get placed under my father for several more days... while he was on this mattress, he wasn't "Squirming around in pain" any longer, but sadly his pressure sore had tunneled in the time between ordering the mattress and my family actually getting it to the care facility... The doctors performed debridement on the sore several times, and then advised us it was just staying ahead of them at that point... My father passed away a few days later. Now I'm full of "Should haves" and "If I had done____" thoughts, but the bottom line is this: I know how incredibly fast a septic sore can move, and he just wasn't placed on the mattress in time.. I have NO DOUBT that he'd still be with us if he'd gotten this mattress under him the very next day when the mattress arrived at his house. This is one of those things that you NEED badly by the time you realize you need one. The quality was much better than expected, and the shipping was "next day FAST". At the very least, it made his last few days MUCH more comfortable, which I'll always be grateful for.

Es un colchón de muy buen material, tiene extremos arriba y abajo para meterlos bajo el Colvin normal y así asegurar que no se mueva, el sonido de la bomba de aire es muy tenue y está se puede anclar a la base o respaldo de la cama que trae unos ganchos. Las burbujas del se pueden adaptar al nivel de dureza y eso es mucha ayuda… Nosotros lo usamos para una paciente con parálisis cerebral que estuvo descuidada y ya tenia heridas delicadas en su cuerpo (escaras) las cuales en colchón normal se seguían agravando. Gracias a este colchón y a los cuidados necesarios las heridas sanaron mucho más rápido y hemos podido colocar a la paciente en diversas posiciones sin temer que se le hagan nuevas heridas. Lo recomiendo.
