Why Is Air Transfer Mattress Widely Used For Patient Transfer And Positionin

As an air transfer mattress and other safe patient transfer product manufacturer with 20 years’ industry experience, Yearstar has professional experience knowledge.

Whether in a hospital, clinic, long term care medical facility or at home, patient lateral transfer is an unavoidable operation in the patient’s daily care, and relying on the strength of the caregiver to manually transfer the patient will be laborious and easy to cause injuries to the caregiver and even the patient.

The huge demand for labor-saving and safe patient transfer assistive products has given rise to the creation and wide application of air-assisted transfer mattresses.

How it works.

The Yearstar air transfer mattress consists of two layers, the upper layer is made of selected fabric for comfort and safety. On the bottom layer, there are many small vent holes whose size, quantity, and locations have been carefully calculated and designed so that when the air mattress is inflated by the air pump, the air in the air mattress will pass through these small holes, forming a thin layer between the air mattress and the bed surface. And at the same time, it can ensure that the amount of air discharged is just right so that when the patient is lying on the air mattress, the mattress can hold the patient securely and also slides effortlessly due to the air layer between the two surfaces which greatly reduces friction.

Extended function.

Generally, air mattresses are equipped with multiple handles around it, which is convenient for nursing staff to transfer and position patients from different angles. If there are special needs, more configurations can be customized to provide extended functions, such as sling straps. With the high strength sling straps added to the air mattress, it is able to perform as a positioning sheet to lift and reposition the patient easily while deflated.
