Problem
Reusable hospital mattresses can harbor pathogens and contribute to healthcare-associated infections (HAIs), while also posing a risk of pressure injuries for patients with limited mobility. Traditional mattress disinfection methods may not eliminate all pathogens, and the durability of conventional mattresses can be compromised by harsh cleaning agents.
Solution
Unisoft Medical offers the Unisoft One®, a single-patient-use therapy mattress system designed to prevent both HAIs and pressure injuries. This disposable mattress is constructed from recyclable, non-toxic materials and is compatible with a wide range of hospital-grade disinfectants, including bleach, without requiring rinsing. The mattress features a patented cover that regulates skin microclimate and provides Level IV pathogen protection. Its unique low-pressure, alternating pressure design delivers effective pressure relief, enhancing patient comfort and promoting healing.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes hospitals, rehabilitation centers, long-term care facilities, and home healthcare providers seeking to reduce HAIs and prevent pressure injuries in patients.
