About the Alpha RESPONSE System
General The Alpha RESPONSE system is a pressure redistributing mattress replacement, mattress overlay or seat cushion system designed to complement pressure ulcer treatment and prevention protocols. The product offers two therapeutic modes: •
Active1 (Alternating) mode which periodically redistributes pressure away from vulnerable areas by inflating and deflating the cells beneath the body every 10 minutes.
Reactive1 (Constant Lower Pressure or CLP) mode where the cell pressure is reduced and held constant across the surface in order to lower the pressure exerted on the body. The product also offers an additional option, Transport Mode, where therapy is interrupted and the mattress cells become static in order to assist with patient transport. The mattresses can be used on standard hospital and normal domestic beds. Beds with divided sections for independent elevation of a patient's head and/or knees can be adjusted with these mattresses in position. The seat cushion can be used on standard hospital and normal domestic chairs. The pump has three settings for the patient weight range: • Light: 40 - 70 kg (88 - 154 lb). • Normal: 70 - 120 kg (154 - 265 lb). • Heavy: 120 - 160 kg (265 - 353 lb). The pump will automatically detect whether a mattress or seat cushion is connected. •
System Variants If the backrest on the bed is raised (the patient is in a semi-recumbent position), the pressure in the mattress is increased to provide optimal pressure redistribution to the patient. There are two variants of the Alpha RESPONSE system, depending on how the system detects the position of the backrest and increases the mattress pressure: • On UK, Euro and RoW systems (except the USA), the system automatically detects the new backrest position and increases the pressure in the mattress cells. • On USA-only systems, the clinician (or patient) has to manually select the Backrest Raised mode on the pump which will increase the pressure in the mattress cells.
