ObboMed OB-1620 | High-Acuity Pressure Redistribution Mattress with Pulmonary Rotation
Comprehensive Wound Care & Dignified In-Bed Toileting
The ObboMed OB-1620 is a specialized therapeutic system designed for the treatment and prevention of Stage 1-4 pressure ulcers. Combining alternating pressure, low air loss (LAL), and lateral rotation, this mattress addresses the primary causes of skin breakdown—moisture, heat, and prolonged vertical pressure. Its unique pulmonary rotation feature (up to 25°) facilitates lung expansion and helps prevent complications like pneumonia in completely immobile patients, making it a critical asset for long-term care and home hospice environments.
Caregiver efficiency and patient dignity are at the forefront of the OB-1620 design. It features a patented "Easy Go" bedpan function: with the push of a quick-release valve, the air cells beneath the buttocks deflate in just 20 seconds, creating a recessed opening for a bedpan without requiring a dangerous patient transfer. This minimizes the risk of friction-induced skin shearing and significantly reduces the physical workload for solo caregivers. The system is topped with a German-made antimicrobial cover that is vapor-permeable and liquid-proof for superior hygiene.

Key Benefits:
- Triple Therapy System: Simultaneously delivers alternating pressure, 15 LPM low air loss, and lateral rotation to heal advanced decubitus ulcers.
- Patented Bedpan Function: Rapidly creates a recessed opening for a bedpan, eliminating the need for patient lifting and reducing skin shear risks.
- Dual Rotation Modes: Offers 15° continuous lateral movement and 25° right/left/auto rotation to support pulmonary health and phlegm expulsion.
- Fowler Seating Support: Detects when the head of the bed is raised and increases pressure in the torso section to prevent "bottoming out."
- Low Air Loss (LAL): High-volume airflow (15 LPM) removes moisture and heat from the skin surface to maintain a healthy microclimate.
- Patient Security: Integrated 7-inch side bolsters and a sinking feature keep the patient centralized and safe during rotation cycles.

Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to commonly asked questions below.
-
What compliance and clinical safety standards does the OBBOmed OB-1620 alternating pressure mattress support?
The OBBOmed OB-1620 alternating pressure mattress is designed to support pressure injury prevention protocols commonly required in hospitals, long-term care, and post-acute settings. Its alternating pressure and low air loss therapy align with accepted clinical practices for reducing shear and prolonged pressure. The system is intended for use as a medical support surface under clinician supervision. Facilities should verify alignment with internal wound care policies and accreditation standards. Supporting documentation is typically available to assist with audits and care planning. This design helps facilities meet patient safety and skin integrity goals.
-
How does the OB-1620 integrate with existing hospital and long-term care bed platforms at scale?
The OB-1620 integrates seamlessly with standard hospital and long-term care bed frames without requiring structural modification. Its form factor allows straightforward placement on existing bed decks, simplifying deployment across multiple units. Standardizing this mattress across wards supports consistent staff training and care protocols. The system scales effectively for facilities managing high patient turnover or multiple care levels. Compatibility with common bed sizes enhances flexibility. This integration minimizes disruption to existing infrastructure.
-
What is the total cost of ownership (TCO) and ROI for facilities deploying this mattress system?
The OB-1620 offers a favorable total cost of ownership (TCO) by reducing the incidence and severity of pressure injuries, which can significantly lower treatment costs. Durable construction and replaceable components support long service life. Low air loss therapy helps maintain skin microclimate, potentially reducing nursing interventions. Predictable maintenance and replacement cycles improve budget planning. When deployed at scale, facilities benefit from reduced adverse events and improved clinical outcomes. This supports measurable ROI in patient care programs.
-
What technical specifications should procurement and clinical engineering teams review before purchase?
Key technical specifications include alternating pressure cycle time, low air loss airflow rate, mattress dimensions, and weight capacity. Facilities should confirm compatibility with bed sizes and patient populations served. The included bedpan cutout supports hygiene care without compromising therapy. Pump noise level and control interface usability are important for patient comfort and staff efficiency. Electrical requirements should align with facility standards. Reviewing these specifications ensures safe and effective clinical use.
-
What maintenance, durability, and lifecycle considerations should facilities plan for?
Facilities should plan for routine inspection, cleaning, and preventive maintenance to maintain therapeutic performance. The low air loss cover is designed for infection-control cleaning protocols. Pump units should be checked periodically for airflow consistency and alarm function. Replacement parts are typically available to extend system lifespan. Including the mattress in asset management programs supports uptime and compliance. Proper lifecycle planning ensures consistent pressure injury prevention support.
