Best Hospital Bed Air Mattresses
Hospital air mattresses are specifically designed for individuals that are prone to receiving bed sores or pressure ulcers, such as elderly individuals or bedridden patients. These hospital bed air mattresses function by evenly distributing the weight of a patient. By redistributing a patient's weight, a hospital air mattress significantly reduces pressure placed on the patient's body, and minimizes shear and friction on the integument. In fact, in some cases, these mattresses can even heal bed sores or pressure ulcers. In addition to reducing pressure, a hospital bed air mattress inhibits humidity and moisture from accumulating in the bed, which will naturally provide greater comfort and protect the patient's skin.

There are two main technologies of air pressure relief mattresses that will prevent bed sores and pressure ulcers: low air loss and alternating. A low air loss mattress features controlled and adjusted areas to adequately support the unique contours of a patient's body, while simultaneously redistributing weight. An alternating pressure mattress features air cells that oscillate between inflation and deflation so that pressure does not build up in one area. Similarly to a low air loss mattress, an alternating pressure mattress distributes a patient's weight throughout the body, too. These technologies, however, are not necessarily separate. In fact, some of the best air bed hospital mattresses may offer both of these technologies. To determine which technologies a particular mattress features, please peruse the below mattress descriptions.
