Description

The Quattro Plus Mattress by Talley Group, now part of Direct Healthcare Group, is an advanced medical mattress system designed to provide exceptional care for patients at risk of pressure ulcers. This innovative mattress offers a comprehensive solution for both home healthcare and professional healthcare facilities, effectively replacing standard mattresses across various bed frames.

Advanced Alternating Therapy

At the core of the Quattro Plus Mattress is its 1-in-4 alternating therapy system. This unique design ensures continuous support by inflating three out of four air cells while the fourth deflates, redistributing pressure and promoting tissue reperfusion. This dynamic support system is complemented by TISSUEgard™ technology, which enhances patient comfort by reducing skin pressure and shearing forces through partial immersion and envelopment.

Enhanced Support Features

The mattress is equipped with Ortho-Differential Support (ODS), providing firmer outer edges for safer patient transfers and a softer central area for enhanced comfort. It offers multiple therapy modes, including an active alternating air pressure cycle and a continuous low-pressure mode, allowing for tailored support. Adjustable comfort settings are easily managed through a user-friendly interface, offering Soft, Medium, and Firm options.

Practical Nursing Features

For nursing procedures, the Max-Inflate mode provides maximum inflation for up to 15 minutes, facilitating easier handling. The mattress also features a patient transport facility, enabling it to remain inflated and functional for up to 12 hours when disconnected from the power unit. A CPR facility is included for rapid deflation during emergencies.

Microclimate Management

The Quattro Plus Mattress excels in microclimate management with low-air-loss features and a specialized cover that is multi-stretch, waterproof, and moisture-vapour permeable. This design protects against fluid ingress and helps manage the skin microclimate, crucial for patient care. The cover is fully removable and machine washable, ensuring hygiene and ease of maintenance. All air cells are replaceable, extending the mattress's lifespan.

Compatibility and Safety

Compatibility with an optional active seat cushion provides 24-hour pressure care. The mattress materials comply with fire safety regulations and meet several medical equipment standards, ensuring safe use in various environments. The simple control panel includes an auto-lock feature, enhancing usability and security.

Constructed from high-quality materials, it supports a maximum user weight of 200kg and operates effectively across a wide range of environmental conditions.
