Versatile Pressure Redistribution for Comprehensive Ulcer Management

The Drive Medical Balanced Aire Powered Alternating Pressure Mattress is a highly adaptable mattress replacement system designed to provide outstanding pressure redistribution, shear reduction, and enhanced patient comfort. Perfect for both home and long-term care settings, this reactive mattress system features self-adjusting air/foam cells to effectively prevent, treat, and heal pressure ulcers.

Versatile Pressure Management
The Balanced Aire mattress is engineered for flexibility, with self-adjusting air cells that respond to body weight and pressure, reducing interface pressure and enhancing patient comfort. The system can easily convert to a dynamic powered system by adding an alternating pressure pump (14005E or BA9600-PUMP), making it suitable for a wide range of patient needs.

Premium Comfort and Support
A 2.5" hybrid Visco foam top layer offers superior immersion, comfort, and heat dissipation, while the high-density foam perimeter provides firm edge support, facilitating safe patient transfers. The heel slope design redistributes pressure away from vulnerable heels, ensuring comprehensive protection against pressure ulcers.

Advanced Self-Adjusting Technology
The mattress features eight non-circular cylinders that prevent "rolling" or "gapping," ensuring consistent support and pressure relief. The self-adjusting air cells can be configured as either open or closed cell, adapting to the individual needs of each patient for optimized care.

Convenient and Protective Design
The removable 4-way stretch polyurethane (PU) cover is fluid-resistant, low shear, and vapor permeable, protecting the skin from friction and moisture. The foam and cover are antimicrobial, antifungal, and latex-free, ensuring a clean and safe environment for the patient.

Ready for Immediate Use
The Balanced Aire mattress arrives patient-ready and is easy to deliver, set up, and transport, making it a practical choice for caregivers. It meets flammability standards CFR1632 and CRF1633, offering added safety and peace of mind.
