Rober to launch ‘zero pressure mattress’ in Mideast

DUBAI, December 15, 2014

UK-based Rober, a leader in the development and manufacture of pressure ulcer prevention and therapy product ranges, is set to launch its pioneering mattress, which replicates the body’s natural movements at Arab Health 2015 in Dubai, UAE.

The event will run from January 26 to 29 at the Dubai International Convention and Exhibition Centre.

Airflex Trio will replicate the body’s natural movements helping to eliminate pressure injuries and provide ultimate patient comfort and safety, said a statement.

It is estimated that pressure ulcers dramatically increase the cost of each patient’s care bill and are also linked to prolonged hospitalisation, pain, social isolation and in worst cases, death, it said.

Airflex Trio uses a clinically proven three-cell cycle which responds to a patient’s weight, spontaneous movement pattern and body position, providing enhanced comfort and complete pressure elimination at regular intervals.

The ‘wave-like ripple effect’ will allow the body weight of the patient to be distributed evenly creating a soft, comfortable but stable surface that doesn’t compromise on clinical outcomes, said the statement.

The easy to operate mattress has been designed with patient and carer safety in mind and offers a therapeutic effect that promotes accelerated wound healing.  It will offer medical staff what they need in order to be able to fully support their patients.

It is an effective and proven solution in the prevention and treatment of pressure ulcers and can be used in all every day nursing and care environments, said the statement.

Mike Hutson, chief executive, said: “We are extremely excited to be able to showcase our new Airflex Trio mattress in the Middle East for the first time.

“It has been designed and manufactured to the highest standards and has the potential to prevent thousands of patients across the Middle East from getting pressure ulcers as they are cared for in hospital.

“Arab Health is an ideal place for us to launch this new and exciting product and I am looking forward to speaking to potential new international customers and distributors at the exhibition.” - TradeArabia News Service
