Description

PURAP Bedsore Prevention and Treatment Mattress Pad
-
Hospital & Home Use - Pressure Relief Fluid 3D Flotation - 38 x 12 x 3 inches
HELPS PREVENT PRESSURE SORES – PURAP mattress overlay eliminates high pressure hotspots that create pressure sores
HELPS HEAL EXISTING ADVANCED STAGE SORES – PURAP dissipates pressure and prevents skin shear. This helps heal existing pressure sores
EFFECTIVE AT ALL ANGLES ON YOUR EXISTING MATTRESS – The PURAP overlay is to be used on top of your existing hospital or home mattress and is effective at all angles of resting
OUTPERFORMS ALTERNATING AIR AND GEL MATTRESSES – Fluid 3D Flotation technology provides lower peak pressures than alternating pressure, gel and foam mattress systems
TESTED AT STANFORD – Fluid 3D Flotation technology was developed in California, clinically tested at Stanford University Hospital, and has published clinical data
Born from Personal Experience
One of our founder's father-in-law developed a bedsore while at a SNF. He ultimately passed away due to complications related to his sores as none of the exiting products helped. PURAP was born from a desire to address all the issues associated with bedsores faced by the patients and their families.
.
For Patients Who Have Bedsores and Those At Risk of Bedsores
The PURAP mattress system is a mattress overlay designed specifically to:
Help heal sores in patients who have already developed bedsores, and
Prevent sores in those who are at risk for bedsores
Contrary to common belief, a pressure sore
can start developing in as little as 4-6 hours
.
Depending on the stage of the sores, they can take anywhere from days to months to heal.
Clinically Tested at Stanford University Hospital
Patented Fluid 3D Flotation Technology
Designed in California
Dissipates pressure more effectively than alternating air, gel and foam mattresses
Helps Prevent Bedsores and Heal Existing Sores
The PURAP mattress pad dissipates pressure away from the high-risk areas, maintains optimal skin microclimate, and reduces skin shear.
This helps
prevent worsening
of existing sores,
heal existing
bedsores (even in advanced stages), and
prevent recurrence
.
When you lie down, pressure concentrates on a few contact points under the
sacrum, ischium, and tailbone
. This creates pressure "hotspots" that are the starting point for sores.
PURAP eliminates these hotspots and prevents new pressure sores from developing.
The PURAP mattress pad is to be overlaid on top of your existing home, hospital, or nursing home mattress. It is effective in pressure reduction in all various sitting and lying down positions.
Use consistently to prevent further complications from pressure sores.
Fluid 3D Flotation is More Effective in Pressure Reduction Than Low Air Loss and Gel Mattresses
PURAP Eliminates High Pressure Hotspots
The PURAP Mattress uses our patented fluid 3D Flotation technology. The unique fluid layer moves freely in the bladder and:
Dissipates pressure away from the body
Provides dynamic pressure reduction
Maximizes the direct contact area with the body
This prevents pressure building up on any one point.
Clinically Tested at Stanford University Hospital
In tests conducted at Stanford University Hospital, PURAP reduced the peak sacral pressure in patients by up to 42% and 70% of patients reported increased comfort when using PURAP.
Published Clinical Data
PURAP has published data on clinical tests done by independent researchers from Stanford University Hospital. The outcome data is available on the nursing center website as well as on the National Library of Medicine (part of NIH) website.
