Description
PressureGuard APM2 Mattress Overview
The PressureGuard APM2 Mattress is a versatile bed mattress system that offers both alternating pressure and lateral rotation capabilities. It is designed to provide exceptional pressure redistribution, reduce heat and moisture buildup, and minimize shear to underlying tissues. This mattress is ideal for patients who require pressure relief and therapeutic support.
The unique Geo-Matt style foam topper, made of high-density medical-grade foam, features over 800 individual cells that work independently to distribute pressure evenly. The foam topper is 2 inches in height and includes the innovative Heel Slope feature, which helps alleviate pressure on the sensitive heel area.
The Safety Edge of the PressureGuard APM2 Mattress consists of a firm 2-part foam bolster that contours under pressure, directing the patient towards the center of the mattress for enhanced stability and safety.
The inflation system of the mattress is powered by four urethane air cylinders, which perform alternating pressure therapy. In the APM2 models, these cylinders also support lateral rotation therapy. The cylinders inflate and deflate in a fixed 10-minute cycle, providing consistent therapeutic benefits.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between alternating pressure and lateral rotation therapy?
A: Alternating pressure therapy involves cycle-based inflation and deflation of air cylinders to redistribute pressure. Lateral rotation therapy includes a rotation feature that helps reposition the patient and relieve pressure points.
Q: How do I switch between alternating pressure and lateral rotation therapy on the PressureGuard APM2 Mattress?
A: The mattress features a recessed toggle switch that allows for easy and instant switching between modes.
Q: How often should the PressureGuard APM2 Mattress be rotated?
A: It is recommended to rotate the mattress at regular intervals to ensure even wear and pressure distribution.
Q: Can the PressureGuard APM2 Mattress be used with bariatric patients?
A: While the standard model is designed for regular patients, there is a bariatric model available with additional air cylinders to support heavier individuals.
