Description
The CARFLEX mattress for pressure ulcers up to Category III according to EPUAP is a comfortable pressure redistribution mattress for pressure ulcer prevention and therapy support up to and including Category III. It is designed for care facilities, clinics and home care settings where reliable pressure relief and a comfortable lying surface are essential. Its soft, elastic surface makes the CARFLEX mattress for pressure ulcers up to Category III according to EPUAP especially suitable for patients who are sensitive to pain—helping them rest more comfortably, sleep better and feel safer during daily care.
At its core, the CARFLEX mattress for pressure ulcers up to Category III according to EPUAP features open-cell PU foam with wedge-shaped lengthwise and crosswise cuts that create a cube-like structure. This distributes pressure over a larger area, helping to support blood circulation in tissue at risk of pressure ulcers. Additional cuts on the underside also allow the mattress to adapt well to the bed’s movement, which can make repositioning and care tasks easier.
Hygiene is also essential in everyday care: the CARFLEX mattress for pressure ulcers up to Category III according to EPUAP is encased in a shear-reducing knitted sleeve and a full polyurethane protective cover. The removable ECO incontinence cover is liquid-proof and mite-proof, and can be laundered or wipe-disinfected. This keeps the lying surface reliably protected while maintaining a high level of comfort and providing a clear purpose for prevention and therapy support alongside other causal and local treatment measures.
