Span America unveils new mattress line
Span-America Medical Systems, Inc. (Greenville, SC), recently announced the launch of a new line of replacement mattresses to complement its popular selection of pressure management surfaces.
Called the Geo-Mattress line, the new offerings bring health care providers two major technological advantages: Span-America’s revolutionary new Heel Slope feature and its time-tested Geo-Matt design.
The exclusive Heel Slope feature is a carefully engineered taper at the foot end of the mattress. The feature is designed to offload vulnerable heels and ankles in favor of the more pressure-tolerant lower legs. Through this subtle load transfer, the Heel Slope consistently delivers average heel pressures up to 27% lower than competitors–even those with optional components such as pillows and special inserts.
The mattresses are topped by the clinically proven, three-zoned Geo-Matt design, which has long set the industry standard for segmented, anti-shearing pressure management surfaces.
The new Geo-Mattress is available in three versions to meet the distinct needs of clinicians and patients in a variety of care settings. All three feature covers made from impermeable, anti-microbial fabric with a low vapor transmission rate. Each one is covered by a 5 year warranty.
