A speciality transfer mattress designed for use in the lithotomy position or on surgical tables when the split-leg plates are employed.
The HoverMatt Split-Leg Matt is a speciality transfer mattress designed for use in the lithotomy position or on surgical tables when split-leg attachments are used. The design allows the bottom half of the transfer mattress to be sealed into two individual segments. When the snaps at the foot end of the SPU Split-Leg are fastened, the legs are kept together, and transfers, boosting and repositioning, can be performed just like with the standard HoverMatt. The legs can then be separated by unsnapping the fasteners to position the HoverMatt as appropriate to the procedure.
It is ideal for use during arthroscopy, cystoscopy, labour and delivery, and other gynaecological or urological procedures as an effective yet unobtrusive patient transfer device.
HoverMatt SPU is compatible with X-ray, MRI and CT scans with documented artefact-free imaging. In addition, single patient use (SPU) reduces costs, handling and logistics for laundry, and the risk of cross-contamination.
HoverMatt Air Transfer System is multifunctional and makes patient transfers, boosting and repositioning easier, while taking care of the carers working environment.
A cushion of air beneath the inflated HoverMatt reduces the force required to move a patient by 80-90% and enables caregivers to safely transfer patients without lifting or straining.
By reducing injuries related to lateral transfers and repositioning, the HoverMatt helps to improve staff retention while meeting legislative guidelines for safe patient handling.
