An effective and intuitive solution for the prevention and management of pressure injuries. Skin IQ® 1000 is a powered coverlet for use in combination with a pressure redistribution surface to help prevent pressure injuries. Skin IQ uses Negative Airflow Technology® (NAT) to continually draw away excess moisture and help to control temperature at the skin/surface interface (microclimate). Microclimate refers to the conditions of moisture and temperature at the point(s) of skin/surface interface¹, and is a key factor for patients at risk of skin maceration and breakdown. Excess moisture and/or temperature can increase skin sensitivity to the damaging effects of pressure, shear, and friction Arjo's Skin IQ® Microclimate Manager (MCM) is a fluid resistant, vapor permeable, single patient use mattress cover for use with a pressure redistribution surface to help prevent and treat Stage I-IV pressure injuries. Powered by Negative Airflow Technology (NAT), Skin IQ MCM continually draws away excess moisture from the skin/surface interface and helps control skin temperature. Skin IQ 365 is a simple and sophisticated solution with proven performance for managing skin microclimate. • Waterproof, vapour permeable top layer offers a bacterial and viral barrier³. • Negative Airflow Technology (NAT) continually draws excess moisture away from the skin / mattress interface. Bench studies show that Skin IQ removes 3.8 times more moisture at the skin/mattress interface than the same mattress without Skin IQ⁴. • Bench studies show that Skin IQ reduces staphylococcus aureus growth by 3.1 logs over a 24 hour period. A percentage reduction of greater than 99.9%*⁵.
