Anti-decubitus air mattress is suitable for patients who are bedridden for a long time. The two air bags are inflated and deflated regularly, thereby The implantation site of the bedridden body is constantly changing, which not only plays the role of artificial stimulation, but also promotes blood circulation and prevents muscle atrophy. The editor below will introduce to you the use of anti-decubitus air cushions and the maintenance of anti-decubitus air cushions.
1. How to use anti-decubitus air cushion
1. Place the air mattress flat on the bed, cover it with a sheet, and connect the two inflatable tubes on the air mattress to the inflatable tube connectors of the main unit.
2. Turn on the power, the power indicator light will be on, press the switch, and the host will fully pressurize the air cushion. Inflatable strength switch, the switch will turn clockwise to “strong” and counterclockwise to “weak”.
3. When using, turn the inflatable intensity switch clockwise to the “strong” position.
4. At night or when the patient feels that the air pressure changes are strong, the switch can be rotated counterclockwise to the weak inflation state.
2. Maintenance tips for anti-decubitus air cushions
1. The bedsore pad can be inflated immediately after purchase, but it can only be used after 8 hours of inflating. Because the inner straps and seams of the pressure sore pad need a cushioning process, try not to fully inflate the new pressure sore pad during the first 2 days of use.
2. After the first filling, the air bed will be a little loose, and the size will be different from the standard. This is a normal phenomenon. The material of the air bed is somewhat elastic. After inflating, it will expand and become soft before it feels loose. After a period of time, you only need to re-inflate it to achieve the desired effect.
3. Make sure that there are no sharp objects such as nails or thorns on the floor or bed frame where the bedsore mat is laid.
4. As the temperature rises during seasonal changes, the gas in the bed will expand, so be careful to deflate it.
5. Do not over-inflate the mattress at any time, especially in summer, otherwise the straps of the bedsore pad will be overloaded and break, causing A bulging bed surface cannot be repaired.
6. When the temperature drops, the bedsore pad will become softer, so pay attention to replenishing the air. Any inflatable product, including tires, will naturally leak air. This is a normal phenomenon. Pay attention to regular replenishment of air.
3. Precautions for anti-decubitus air cushion
1. When preparing to inflate, the mattress must be laid flat. The mattress must be fully inflated before it can be used normally. Generally, the inflation time is about 30 minutes.
2. When inflating, first check whether the pressure of the air pump is correct. Use scissors to cut a small section of the extended rubber tube of the mattress to facilitate connection with the air pump. The air outlet is anastomotic.
3. Check whether the air pipe joints under the mattress are well connected and maintain normal inflation.
4. Since winter is cooler, we can lay a thin layer of mattress on top of the mattress to keep the patient warm. This makes the patient more comfortable.
The above is how to use the anti-decubitus air cushion and the maintenance precautions for the anti-decubitus air cushion. I hope it will be helpful to everyone. For more decoration information details, please continue to pay attention.
