What Are Pressure Sores?
Pressure sores are injuries to the tissue underneath the skin. They are primarily caused by prolonged force on the skin and are frequently found in people who are confined to a single position for a long period of time. Consistent downward pressure can cause the tissue under the skin to die due to concentrated force on peak pressure points, causing pressure sores and ulcers to form.
How Does the High-Specification Foam Topper Help?
Thanks to a unique castellated design and 9cm depth, pressure is distributed further across the mattress, preventing one specific area of the body taking the weight and strain of downward force. Together with an absorbent and spring foam core, this overlay works like a bouncy top layer, moving weight around seamlessly in order to prevent pressure and strain build up.
What Is This Overlay Made From?
This overlay is made with high-density combustion modified polyurethane for a springy feel and high shock absorbing properties. This prevents the build up of pressure by reducing the impact of downward force, meaning your weight is evenly distributed no matter what position you are in. If your mattress is slightly too firm and contributing to pressure sores, this overlay is a high-performing, suitable addition to avoid replacing your mattress altogether.
Pressure Redistribution TO aVOID bUILD-uP
Pressure redistribution is vital if you're bedbound or confined to bed for rehabilitation or recovery purposes. Distribution is where weight is evenly spread across a surface to prevent the build up of pressure. This High Specification Overlay uses evenly spread square blocks to both absorb force and prevent points where a large amount of weight is concentrated on one specific area.
How Can the fOAM tOPPER Help With Rheumatism and Arthritis?
The High Specification Foam is designed to support the body's joints and permit an ache-free night's sleep. By alleviating the build up of force on peak pressure points and sore joints, the overlay provides a supple and pressure absorbing surface to sleep on, allowing you to enjoy a full and painless night's sleep.
How do I Use the Foam Mattress Topper?
The High Specification Foam Overlay is designed to sit on top of your current mattress either with or without a thin base sheet for an additional layer of smooth bed linen. Avoid using any additional covers or padding between the user and the overlay, as this may affect the pressure reducing qualities.
Wipe-Clean Cover for Easy Sanitation
In-line with NHS guidelines, the cover is vapour permeable, reducing the risk of water or liquids infiltrating the fabric and seeping into the foam overlay within. This also facilitates sanitation in seconds, allowing you to simply wipe it down with disinfectant or hot water and soap. The cover is also machine washable up to 95°C and can be tumble dried up to 40°C for effortless maintenance and longevity.
What Option Variants are Available?
The High Specification Foam Mattress Topper is available to buy in a variety of options, compatible with both a single and double bed size. You can also purchase your overlay with or without a cover, depending on your personal preference. If you simply wish to purchase a replacement cover for your current overlay, you can select the 'cover only' option. Please check the relevant options before purchasing.
