Description
Clinically proven high specification foam mattress suitable for ‘Very High Risk’ 1 patients1. The Invacare Softform Premier is a high specification foam pressure redistributing mattress designed to meet the demands of Community and Acute healthcare environments. Practical and durable, this static mattress delivers exceptional levels of comfort and pressure redistribution. The ‘Strikethrough Resistant Technology®’ 2 (SRT) cover has been designed to manage the clinical impact of pressure care and healthcare acquired infection by reducing the risk of cross contamination. The clinically proven foam interface of the Softform Premier foam mattress provides stability and comfort. Invacare's expertise and experience in the field of pressure care has been combined to produce the ultimate design and quality in the Softform Premier mattress. With a full range of sizes available, the Softform Premier provides an unrivalled solution to pressure redistribution on a static foam surface.
The Invacare Softform Premier features a unique contoured insert foam, constructed from 'teardrop cut' castellated cells, which conform independently to body movement and positioning to reduce shear and friction forces. In addition, it provides excellent comfort capabilities and improved pressure redistribution. The mattress insert has a non-glued construction, which allows for excellent conformity when profiled on electric bed frames and enables air to flow freely between castellations, attributing to a healthy microclimate. A high specification foam interface offers a comfortable, effective pressure redistributing surface for patients at 'Very High Risk' of developing pressure ulcers. The high specification foam is specifically cut for effective contouring, microclimate and pressure redistribution. EPUAP 4 suggests the avoidance of subjecting the skin to both pressure and shear forces, both major contributory factors in the development of pressure ulcers.The mattress cover flap protects the zip. This reduces the possible risk of fluid ingress, preventing contamination of the foam core. The mattress zip is fully covered with a flange to protect it from fluid ingress, it is welded not sewn to provide maximum protection for infection control. The cover is zipped around all 4 sides with the top and bottom cover being completely detachable, which not only aids internal mattress inspection but also allows for economic replacement. Grey toughened base protects mattress in moving and handling situations. Secure handles to facilitate easy transportation by 1 person.

Technical
1. Essential nursing care is pivotal in pressure ulcer prevention. This mattress will positively contribute to the outcome of a pressure ulcer prevention care plan. Education, clinical judgement and action based planning based on vulnerability are fundamental factors in the prevention of pressure ulcers. A range of assessment scales can be used as a formal method of assessing risk from pressure ulcer development, and should be used in conjunction with an informal assessment (informed nursing judgement). Informal assessment is considered to be of greater importance and clinical value. 2. Please note: The cover is not Strikethrough proof. Misuse or incorrect care and handling can cause damage to the mattress cover. N.B. The Double and Kingsize mattresses are not available with ‘Strikethrough Resistant Technology’.
