Zavedení
The Apex Medical Domus 3-5" Low Air Loss Alternating Overlay Pressure Mattress is designed to provide pressure redistribution and comfort for patients, particularly those at medium risk of pressure injury. This system features two therapy modes: alternating mode for dynamic pressure relief and static mode for a stable surface. Its ventilated low air loss function helps manage moisture and heat, contributing to patient comfort and reducing the risk of skin breakdown.

Návod k obsluze
Zapnutí/vypnutí
Locate the power switch on the pump unit. Flip the switch to the "ON" position to start the pump and inflate the mattress. Flip to "OFF" to turn off the unit.
Režimy terapie
The Domus 3 offers two primary therapy modes:
- Střídavý režim: This mode continuously inflates and deflates alternating air cells to redistribute pressure over time, preventing prolonged pressure on any single area. This is ideal for pressure injury prevention.
- Statický režim: In this mode, all air cells remain inflated to a constant pressure, providing a stable and firm surface. This mode is suitable for general use or when a stable surface is preferred.

Nastavení tlaku
The pump unit features a variable pressure setting with a weight indicator. Adjust the pressure knob to select the appropriate firmness based on the patient's weight and comfort preference. Refer to the pump's display or markings for recommended settings.
Funkce s nízkou ztrátou vzduchu
Air cells 3 through 11 are designed with a low air loss feature. This allows a small amount of air to escape through microscopic pores, wicking away moisture and heat from the patient's skin. This helps keep the patient comfortable and reduces the risk of skin maceration and shear forces.
