The Geo-Mattress ® UltraMax™ is precision-engineered to facilitate the sustained, restful sleep that can be a critical contributor to healing and recovery. Exclusive UHP 500™ torso section and 3-dimensional Zoning™ design ensure support and durability not achievable with traditional HR, latex, or viscoelastic foams. Geo-Matt® segmented surface and Shear Transfer Zone™ design deliver unsurpassed protection against shearing, pressure, and heat/moisture buildup. Firm perimeter provides edge-of-bed stability for fall prevention and safety during ingress, egress. Innovative design sets UltraMax™ apart from typical reactive surfaces and enables it to exceed even the most rigorous requirements of the acute health care setting.
Repeated head of bed elevating and the patient’s concentrated weight combine to expose the seat section to the highest level of mechanical fatigue. UltraMax™ distinguishes itself by offering unmatched protection from “bottoming out”. A unique cellular structure gives UHP 500 a combination of resiliency, recovery and comfort not achievable with any of the foams commonly used in medical support surfaces.
Beyond its Geo-Matt® segmented top surface, an additional measure of shearing protection is provided by the silicone-coated, shear minimizing fabric bands located on the underside of its bi-directional stretch cover.
