Protekt™ 500 Gel Infused Foam Pressure Redistribution Mattress with 3" Raised Rails - 80"

The Protekt 500 gel infused foam pressure redistribution mattress is a support surface for patient care settings that need pressure redistribution and cooling performance beyond traditional foam. Buyers choosing mattresses for long-term use may appreciate the open-cell visco memory foam with gel polymers, which is built to improve breathability, channel heat away from the body, and help patients stay cool and dry. This version includes 3 inch raised rails and an 80 inch length.

FAQ

• How does this mattress help with pressure redistribution? The Protekt 500 uses open-cell visco memory foam infused with gel polymers, along with precision-cut air pockets and a sloped heel section, to redistribute pressure over a larger surface area.
• What makes this mattress different from traditional foam? This mattress is built to improve breathability and dissipate heat faster than traditional foam. The open-cell design channels air away from the body, and the gel infusion adds cooling properties.
• Does this mattress address heel pressure? Yes. The heel section uses a 30 degree slope to redistribute pressure from the heel to the entire lower leg, and the top layer is finished with Lura-Quilt foam to help keep skin cool and dry.
• What size is this mattress? The source details show a size of 80 inch x 36 inch x 9 inch.
• Does this version include raised rails? Yes. This Protekt 500 configuration includes 3 inch raised rails.
