How pressure care works
The ActiveX™ mattresses are heat and pressure sensitive: as temperature rises, the foam softens.
When a pressure point develops (often becoming hot and inflamed), that area of the mattress softens,
helping restore blood flow.
Pressure care
- Average peak pressure rating of <24 mmHg.
- For some high-risk clients, Icare Zerotec covers are recommended.
Risk category basis
Icare risk categories are based on:
- Average peak pressure
- Therapist recommendation
- Case studies
- Industry comparison
- Waterlow scale
Best practice: assess clients on a pressure-reducing surface by visually checking pressure points over a period of 5 days.
