Proactive Medical Protekt® Aire 8000 Low Air Loss and Alternating Pressure Bariatric Mattress System – High-Output Heavy-Duty Skin Therapy Platform

Proactive Medical Protekt® Aire 8000 Heavy-Duty Bariatric Support Surface: Advanced Microclimate Management and Deep Cell-on-Cell Skin Therapy for High-Acuity Facility Assets

Managing and treating advanced Stage I through IV pressure injuries within heavy-duty and bariatric populations presents an intense physical and clinical challenge for acute care facilities and skilled nursing operations. Standard dynamic overlay systems frequently collapse or bottom out under heavy load tolerances, resulting in immediate tissue ischemia, rapid skin breakdown, and severe regulatory non-compliance. The Proactive Medical Protekt® Aire 8000 Low Air Loss and Alternating Pressure Bariatric Mattress System directly solves these compounding liabilities. Specifically designed for oversized bariatric frames, this enterprise-grade medical platform ensures superior immersion and envelopment across a wide distribution area.

Driven by an upgraded, high-volume digital pump pushing 18 liters per minute (LPM) of active airflow, the Protekt® Aire 8000 features a heavy-duty dual-compressor motor capable of sustaining calibrated therapies for patient weights up to 750 lbs. The system delivers configurable alternating cycle times (10, 15, 20, or 25 minutes) to break up constant tissue compression, alongside continuous low air loss to continuously manage skin temperature and moisture retention. For optimal patient security, the mattress incorporates an ultra-deep 10-inch cell-on-cell structural blueprint. This advanced architecture ensures that even in the event of an unexpected building power failure, the bottom layer remains statically pressurized, isolating vulnerable sacral tissue from the rigid steel bed frame beneath.

Key Benefits:

• High-Output 18 LPM Dual Compressors: Leverages a high-capacity digital control pump providing 18 liters of continuous air movement per minute to maintain structural integrity under extreme load demands.
• Oversized Bariatric Dimensional Options: Available in heavy-duty 42, 48, 54, and 60-inch widths to perfectly integrate with bariatric facility bed frames and standard room configurations.
• Advanced 10-Inch Cell-on-Cell Safety: Engineered with 20 individual 10-inch deep Nylon/PU composite cells that lock air into the lower layer during a power disruption, mechanically preventing bottoming out.
• 20% Micro-Processor Seat Boost: Includes an automated "Seat Inflate" setting that increases core air volume by 20% to prevent sacral bottoming out when the head-of-bed is elevated for fowler positioning.
• Total Control Panel Digital Lockout: Equipped with a security lockout key that completely disables the touch interface, preventing unauthorized adjustments to pressure or power configurations.
• Calibrated Low Air Loss Ventilation: Features a localized low air loss network designed to actively pull ambient heat and moisture away from the skin barrier, halting the progression of tissue maceration.
• Quilted Fluid-Resistant Vapor Barrier: Wrapped in a premium quilted stretch top cover that is completely fluid-resistant, antimicrobial, antibacterial, low-shear, and highly vapor-permeable.
