About the Impulse Hybrid Mattress The Opera® Impulse Powered Hybrid Profiling Mattress combines static and active mattress technologies to provide advanced pressure relief and the highest levels of user comfort. Mattress Features: Pressure Risk Category: Very High The Opera® Impulse Hybrid mattress is suitable for users who are at a very high risk of developing pressure sores. The mattress uses a combination of static and active technologies to stimulate advanced pressure relief in those with a severe likelihood of developing pressure sores. Three-Zone Pressure-Relieving Surface The layered foam and air cell composition of the Impulse ensures optimum comfort andpressure relief. A three-zone lying surface includes a broad-castellation head zone for comfort and a gel-infused heel zone for pressure-reducing envelopment on this vulnerable area of skin. Firmness: Adjustable The Impulse Hybrid Mattress can vary in firmness as it can be used with or withoutthe pump. The mattress on its own and without the pump is a medium firmness and provides a supporting surface for high risk users. If a firmer surface is required for the mattress, the airflow can be adjusted by using the pump. Advanced Air Pressure Pump System The pump incorporates auto-weighing technology that responds to user body weight to effectively apply the optimum level of airflow through the mattress air cells. There is also an adjustable comfort setting that allows you to adjust the firmness of the mattress for the highest levels of comfort. Alternating Therapy Air Cells A row of alternating therapy air cells are contained within the mattress. This lateralrow of air cells constantly alternates. While some cells are inflated, others are deflated. Airflow is controlled through a pump unit with auto-weighing technology and comfort adjustment. Step Up/Step Down Functionality The step up/step down ability of the Opera® Impulse allows it to be used as a static or dynamic surface. This also means that in the event of a power failure when the pump is in use, the high-risk foam is lying.
