elatex® visco Mattress

elatex® visco Mattress Our elatex®-visco Mattress features a combination of visco-elastic and elatex® foam, the best possible option available. Visco-elastic foam, also called memory foam, changes its hardness depending on the temperatures applied. The warmer the surrounding temperature, the softer the material gets, permitting the patient to actually sink into the mattress. The result is very low resting pressure. This mattress is especially suited for extremely pressuresensitive (pain-)patients with pressure ulcers up to grade III (according to EPUAP). Due to its double-sided use, the patient can be re-positioned onto the elatex® layer after improvement of the wound condition.
