The Pegasus Hospital NHS Pressure Relief Mattress
The Pegasus mattress is designed for patients at a high to very high risk of suffering from pressure ulcers. It offers the best pressure care support that can be achieved from a static mattress and manages not to sacrifice patient comfort in order to do so.
Design technology best in its class
The mixture of high-quality foam and visco-elastic foam that is sensitive to temperature means that the Pegasus mattress has impressive pressure re-distribution properties and ensures a high degree of comfort because of the way that it adapts to a person’s body contours. Patient transfer is made safer because of the Side Wall construction, it has a sturdy polyurethane base designed for use on all bed frame types. Its strong base makes sure that patients are stable and comfortable and prevents incidents of ‘bottoming out’.
Combating infection control
The hi-tech technology and the strong contemporary cover guarantee the kind of longevity that is important for high frequency products. Its sturdy vapour permeable cover includes a highly effective anti-fungal agent that aids in reducing shear and friction forces, implementing infection control. The mattress’s welded cover stops fluid ingress and can be laundered at up to 80 degrees ensuring excellent decontamination.
