The Proactive Medical Protekt 1st Defense Hybrid Air-Foam Mattress delivers an advanced, non-powered therapeutic support surface engineered to provide optimal pressure redistribution. By utilizing a hybrid architecture, this mattress combines the immediate, structural reliability of multi-zoned clinical foam with the deep immersion capabilities of independent air cells, providing a maintenance-free environment that functions flawlessly without relying on continuous electricity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe core clinical engineering of the Protekt 1st Defense revolves around reactive micro-climate and shear management. The mattress contains ten interconnected, independent air cell cylinders encased within a high-density, high-resilient foam perimeter envelopment. When a patient rests on the surface, the internal air cells automatically equalize via a dynamic air-valve system, redistributing the patient's weight evenly across the entire surface area. This self-adjusting immersion significantly lowers interface pressure at vulnerable bony prominences—such as the sacrum and trochanters. Additionally, the mattress features a sloped heel section lined with memory foam to proactively offload pressure from the sensitive heel area, a common site for institutional breakdown.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom an operational, risk management, and infection control standpoint, this hybrid mattress optimizes facility workflows and capital expenditure. The perimeter of the mattress features a rigid, high-density foam contour shell that provides stable side-rail support, preventing patient rollout risks and facilitating safer bedside transfers for nursing staff. The entire assembly is enclosed in a premium, fluid-resistant, multi-stretch nylon cover that reduces skin friction and shear forces. This medical-grade cover features a low moisture vapor transmission rate (MVTR) to manage humidity at the skin interface, and its non-porous surface withstands aggressive hospital chemical disinfection protocols without delaminating or cracking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cb\u003eKey Benefits:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eNon-Powered Air Cell System:\u003c\/b\u003e Utilizes ten interconnected air cylinders that automatically adjust and equalize without electricity, eliminating pump noise and mechanical downtime.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eMulti-Zoned Pressure Redistribution:\u003c\/b\u003e Integrates advanced foam and air technology to provide immersion, maximizing tissue protection across the patient's entire body.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eDedicated Heel Offloading:\u003c\/b\u003e Features a specialized sloped heel zone combined with visco-elastic memory foam to protect vulnerable heel tissue from high interface pressures.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eRigid Side Perimeter Support:\u003c\/b\u003e Encased in a firm foam contour shell that maintains edge integrity, preventing patient entrapment hazards and assisting in safe bed exits.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eAnti-Shear Multi-Stretch Cover:\u003c\/b\u003e Outfitted with a fluid-proof, antimicrobial nylon cover that stretches to reduce friction and shearing forces during patient repositioning.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eInfection Control Optimized:\u003c\/b\u003e Covered in a durable, easy-to-sanitize material that resists moisture penetration and survives repeated medical-grade chemical washdowns.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cb\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eBrand:\u003c\/b\u003e Proactive Medical Products\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eModel Series:\u003c\/b\u003e Protekt® 1st Defense Hybrid (Air\/Foam) Mattress\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eWeight Capacity:\u003c\/b\u003e 500 lbs (Tested clinical weight rating)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eInternal Matrix:\u003c\/b\u003e 10 Interconnected non-powered air cylinders surrounded by high-density clinical foam\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eHeel Section:\u003c\/b\u003e Sloped configuration with integrated visco-elastic memory foam layer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eCover Material:\u003c\/b\u003e Multi-stretch, fluid-proof, low-MVTR antimicrobial nylon cover with non-slip vinyl bottom\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eSafety Features:\u003c\/b\u003e Fire-retardant construction conforming to standard 16 CFR Part 1633 regulations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eWarranty Coverage:\u003c\/b\u003e 5-Year Limited Institutional Warranty on the internal core and cover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Proactive","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48377686229236,"sku":"PRO-82030","price":312.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2304\/8155\/files\/1st-Defense-1.jpg?v=1780474321","url":"https:\/\/rescue-supply.com\/products\/proactive-medical-protekt-1st-defense-hybrid-air-foam-therapeutic-support-surface","provider":"Rescue Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
