Types of mattresses to prevent bedsores
Air mattress An air mattress is a device that distributes pressure and is operated by an electric air pump. The mattress will continually alternate and inflate so that the skin in that area is not pressed for a long time, reducing the severity of pressure ulcers. Air mattresses are divided into 2 types:
Curly air mattress The wavy air mattress has an advantage in the case of being hit by a sharp object. causing the curls to leak and be damaged or one of the curls is damaged The curls can be removed and changed. No need to buy a new mattress and replace the entire piece. Replace only damaged curls. Expenses will be more economical. Cost of changing curls Approximately 200-250 baht per roll.

And most importantly, you should choose a model of air mattress that has a quiet air pump that does not disturb your sleep. There is a guarantee from the seller. There is after-sales service.
Honeycomb air mattress Used to alternately inflate and deflate air pressure at each point with continuous alternating inflating and deflating, same as the corrugation model. And the softness of the mattress can be adjusted similarly to the wavy type. Honeycomb air mattresses are easy to clean. If the patient must apply medicine to treat pressure sores Or patients who have problems with the digestive system, honeycomb air mattresses are suitable because they are easier to clean than wavy air mattresses. But there is a disadvantage that you have to be careful of: if it gets hit with a sharp object and causes the mattress to crack or leak, the leak must be patched.
