microAIR True Low Air Loss Therapeutic Support Mattress
with 1275 Blower, Invacare MA80 mattress replacement system
The microAIR APM provides pressure relief in the prevention and treatment of pressure ulcers. This microAIR system uses a 1275 Liters per Minute blower for comfort and fast set-up
This Group II support surface has a 1000-lb weight capacity.
The microAIR MA80 offers true low air loss therapy. True Low Air Loss therapeutic support wicks away moisture and maintains a temperate environment for the user.
The microAIR MA80 is a Group II mattress system for pressure ulcer therapy. The MA80 uses 20 - 8" Bladders and has 10" mattress height. Provides the therapeutic benefit of pressure relief and skin moisture management.
The MA80 mattress system features automatic wireless fowler to prevent bottoming out when bed is articulated, and constant pressure monitoring to maintain comfort and recommended pressure therapy.
This blower-powered Group II therapy mattress offers comfort and envelopment of the patient in 8" bladders along with two treatment modalities, alternating pressure combined with true low air loss.
The top cover is a dual-quilted cover with a slip layer, and the 10 nylon web straps with buckled hold-downs to secure the mattress are also standard on this model.
The waterproof cover is made of non-shear nylon and has nylon tie down straps with buckles for attaching the mattress to the bed.
This microAIR mattress has a non-skid bottom and is secured with 10
nylon web buckled hold-downs. When rolled up for storage, carrying
handles allow for easy transport.
Standard Hospital/Homecare Bed Size:
Affordable with added comfort, this Los Air Loss mattress is available in the standard 36" x 80" size (Twin XL).
microAIR Technology:
 New
wireless fowler technology, real time pressure monitoring and energy
conserving power units combine to make microAIR surfaces the most
efficient dynamic support surfaces in the market. Within the power
units is a pressure transducer that maintains surface pressure not to
exceed 32mm/Hg. The solenoid valve within the compressor opens and
closes the air valve automatically to maintain the pressure relief
range prescribed. The compressor turns off to save energy when the
patient is in the range.
Wireless Fowler Technology is an
innovation exclusive that assures patient comfort. From time to time
patients need to sit up in bed, which creates the problem of additional
pressure in the coccyx area and possible disruption of treatment.
Working
in sync with the power unit, the transmitter installed in the head
section of the mattress signals the power unit when the head portion
begins to raise. The power unit immediately begins adding 25% more air
to the mattress to prevent patient contact with a hard surface.
microAIR MA80 Control Panel:
Pulse Mode:
The pulse times are 1, 3, 5 or 10 minutes. The pulse times indicate the time between each low pulse. For example, if 5 minutes is selected, all the air cushions in the mattress will inflate for 5 minutes (the selected time) to the selected comfort setting and then drop 20% pressure for 20 seconds.
True Low Air Loss:
The low-air-loss system floats the patient on air-filled cells while circulating air across the skin to reduce moisture and help maintain a constant skin interface pressure "True Air Loss" utilizes 100-150 liters of air per minute to maintain normal skin temperature and moisture levels, yet will not dry out therapeutic dressings.

What are pressure ulcers?
 Pressure ulcers, sometimes called bed sores or decubitus (lying in bed) ulcers, are typically located in the areas where the body has less protective covering on weight bearing points. Those areas are typically heels, elbows, shoulders, and the sacral regions in the supine, semi-recumbent, and seated positions. Ankles, knees, hips and ears are additional areas of concern in the lateral position. Read more about pressure sores and bed sores.
