2. Intended use, indica� ons & contraindica� ons
Intended use:
It is easier to prevent pressure ulcers than to treat them. Bedsores
can be avoided by changing frequently lying or sea� ng posi� ons
to avoid stress on the skin and to minimize the risk of pressure on
vulnerable bony areas. Other strategies include skin care, regular
skin inspec� ons and good nutri� on.
Using an alterna� ng overlay ma� ress can help relieve pressure.
Ideal to prevent stage I bedsores.
This air alterna� ng ma� ress system is designed for pa� ents who are
at risk of pressure of ulcers or require treatment for exis� ng pressure
ulcers. This device is intended to treat and prevent pressure ulcers
by facilita� ng blood circula� on, reac� ve hyperaemia and decreasing
interface pressures.
The use of this system does not replace the regular reposi� oning,
monitoring, and nursing of the pa� ent.
Indica� ons:
• Preven� on of pressure ulcers in high-risk pa� ents
• Pain management
• Treatment of exis� ng pressure ulcers
• Preven� on of skin breakdown, bedridden pa� ent
Contraindica� ons:
• Unstable fractures of vertebrae and condi� ons of the vertebrae.
• Gross oedema, burns or an intolerance to mo� on
The PROTECTOR III set contains a pump equipped with quick
connector and cap, visual low pressure alarm and correct pressure
indicator. The pad is equipped with 17 cells, where cells from 6 to
11 feature a microven� la� on func� on. The pad is equipped with a
CPR strap and enables a rapid air defl a� on in case of an emergency.
The quick connector features a transport func� on : the cap allows
to stop air loss when necessary to transport the pa� ent in the bed
to another room.
This set includes one free air cell for repairs, easy to replace by the
user in case of damage.
3. Descrip� on and Fi� ng instruc� ons
Beware : always place a bed sheet between pa� ent and ma� ress.
1. Posi� on pump on horizontal surface or hang it by means of the
hooks.
2. Open ma� ress on the bed. Secure it with end fl aps or straps. Air
tubes must be at foot end of bed.
3. Connect quick connector with air feed tubes to air outlet of the
pump, ensuring that the tubes are not “kinked” or twisted. Allow
space for bed rails to drop freely.
4. Plug the pump into a suitable electrical power source and switch
on. The switch indicator should now illuminate, and pressure must
be adjusted to MAX posi� on.
5. Allow 20 minutes for ma� ress to infl ate fully.
6. Cover with a sheet and tuck loosely.
7. Please use pressure adjustable knob to give maximum pa� ent
comfort.
8. Correct working pressure is indicated by a green lamp „PRESSURE
NORMAL“.
9. In case that yellow indicator „PRESSURE LOW“ appears, it might
be, that there is damage somewhere in ma� ress pad or air tubes.
Stop using pad, and locate the damage. If you don‘t fi nd any damage
- please contact service.
10. Pump must work con� nuously, 24 hours a day.
4. Washing instruc� ons
Pad can be cleaned by disinfectant solu� on.
Do not immerse the pump in water.
Do not heat or steam in autoclave.
Regularly check the condi� on of air fi lter - in case it is dirty or if you
