Assist in the Prevention of Pressure Injuries with Pressure Relief Surfaces

Global prevalence of pressure injuries ranges from 6-18.5%.1 The Syntheto surface brings the comfort of foam and the therapeutic power of air to hospital bed mattresses. This powerful combination is designed to help protect patients’ skin integrity and treat pressure ulcers with specialised therapies when needed.

  • Convert to active alternating pressure redistribution surface at the touch of a button
  • Help turn patients easily with patient mobilisation mode (Turn Assist)  and reminders*
  • Manage heat and moisture build up on patients skin with improved MicroClimate Management

Support Skin Integrity with Greater Mobilisation

Mobilisation is an important part of pressure injury prevention.2 That’s why the Syntheto surface is designed to help you:

  • Increase turn engagement with the Turn Reminder feature*
  • Turn patients more easily with the Turn Assist feature*
  • Pressure Injury mode can laterally move the patient to reduce interface pressures in the sacral area

Be Alerted to Signs of Patient Deterioration

As a second set of eyes, the contact-free, continuous monitoring system3 acts as a compliment to episodic and continuous vital signs monitors and alerts the caregiver of heart or respiratory rates that exceed the pre-determined thresholds.4

Support Clinical Efficiency and Cost Efficiency

Help reduce time-consuming transfers an Active Alternating Air Surface at the touch of a button. The Syntheto surface’s integrated pump and X-ray sleeve help you perform more in-room procedures and therapies.

Stay Connected to Patient and Surface Status

A traditional hospital bed mattress can’t keep you connected — but the Syntheto surface can. Stay connected even when you’re not in your patients’ rooms with:

  • Timely alerts to bring clinicians to the bedside for faster interventions
  • Connectivity to send clinical data from the surface to the nurse’s station or EMR
