The “Align ADAPT” has 360 degrees of movement offering reduction of shear in all directions, essential when reducing risk of skin breakdown related to shear forces Easily adapted to add air components at torso and feet for a client with high risk or presence of skin breakdown Head and foot sections of foam are fixed in place to ensure that the component parts of the mattress “re-set” themselves Designed to reduce need for re-positioning Bolstered sides for ease of transfers Multi-zoned to address pressure distribution requirements at head, torso and feet Higher cut middle section to improve immersion without compromising transfers into and out of bed 5 way incontinence stretch cover Unique mattress base “accordion” cut outs in bolsters at foot and head sections for ease of profiling mattress on bed frame The “Align ADAPT Mattress with SRT by 5 Minds Mobility” incorporates patent pending “Shear Reduction Technology (SRT)”. It is an innovative way for two component parts of the mattress to move on each other in order to absorb shear WITHIN the surface, at the same time addressing the need for immersion with the ability to add air components over time if necessary. This new approach to shear in 360° of movement incorporates two multi-zone layers of alternative foam which are separated by a low friction material. The mattress itself is designed to absorb forces that damage skin, thereby reducing the risk for skin breakdown. A third party clinical trial was completed by Durham College Department of Nursing and Department of Engineering to validate the SHEAR REDUCTION TECHNOLOGY. The clinical trial provides non-biased support for its efficacy and use in populations where both shear and pressure forces can damage vulnerable skin. 5 Minds Mobility received the Colleges of Ontario Network for Industry Innovations award in 2011.
