Alternate™
Alternate™ is designed to prevent and treat pressure injuries by offering active pressure redistribution in two therapy modes: 1-in-3 alternation and static low air loss.
1-in-3 alternation deflates every third cell depending on the programmed cycle time (between 3 to 20 minutes). Continuous static low air loss manages microclimate and moisture by keeping skin cool and dry.
The First Point of Contact™ top cover is free from harmful chemicals of concern, vapor-permeable, low-friction and anti-shear. Alternate is designed for use with all medical beds, including step-deck systems.
