Definition

A specialty mattress system that delivers continuous low-volume airflow through a permeable cover or through dedicated air channels to manage the microclimate at the skin–surface interface (heat and moisture) and to provide modest pressure redistribution, thereby reducing factors that contribute to pressure injury risk.
