Lothian Airflow Mattress

Product Details

The Lothian Airflow Mattress is a dynamic mattress replacement system designed to provide advanced pressure care for individuals assessed as being at very high risk of developing pressure ulcers. It replaces the existing mattress entirely, creating a supportive and responsive sleep surface that is well suited to long-term care, nursing environments, and complex homecare situations.

The mattress uses an alternating airflow system to redistribute pressure across the body at regular intervals. Transverse air cells inflate and deflate in sequence, helping to reduce prolonged pressure on vulnerable areas such as the sacrum, heels, and shoulders. This continuous change in pressure supports healthy circulation and helps protect skin and underlying tissue where movement is limited.

Operation is managed through a compact digital pump that delivers consistent airflow while remaining quiet during use. The straightforward controls make it easy for carers to adjust settings without specialist training, supporting reliable daily use and reducing the risk of incorrect setup. This makes the mattress particularly suitable for users who are unable to reposition themselves independently.

A multi-stretch PU-coated cover is fitted as standard. It is vapour permeable to allow heat and moisture to escape, while remaining waterproof to protect the mattress core. This combination helps minimise friction and shear, supports skin integrity, and makes routine cleaning and infection control straightforward.

With its focus on effective airflow pressure relief, ease of use, and durability, the Lothian Airflow Mattress provides dependable support for high-dependency users who require consistent, clinically effective pressure management.
