ACTIVE SEAT SYSTEM
The Harvest Active Seat System is an alternating pressure relieving seat system, used in
the prevention and treatment on pressure ulcers. This system is recommended for use by a
patient who requires pressure relief whilst sitting.
The system uses the established principles of alternating therapy, which offers the patient
comfortable and relaxing support that can both prevent tissue breakdown and help with
healing.
The pump unit is both lightweight and compact; it features a clearly visible, low pressure
warning indicator and a manual pressure control function.
The sections of the cushion alternate through a 10 minute cycle, in which time both sets
of alternating air cells will have inflated and deflated squentially. All air cells are individually
replaceable should any damage occur to them.
Quick release couplings between the pump unit and the seat enable easy patient transfer
arrangements. To deflate the system, simply disconnect the couplings from the pump unit.
The cover is made of a multi-stretch, vapour permeable, waterproof PU fabric.
