Transport Control This sets the mattress into TRANSPORT mode where the
support surface is equally pressurised and the pump and
tubeset can be removed. In this mode the mattress will
support the patient for up to 12 hours.
CPR Control The CPR (Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscitation) Control
provides a means of rapidly deflating the mattress to
allow normal resuscitation procedures to be carried out.
The CPR control is used to deflate the mattress for packing and storage.
Additional Controls on the Nimbus 3 Professional Mattress
The following two controls are on the opposite side of
the mattress to the CPR/Transport Control:
Head Section Deflate
Control
This is a two-position rotary-action control at the head
end of the mattress:
• Dynamic (Normal) Mode. The three cells in the Head
Section are inflated at a constant pressure and the
remaining 17 cells alternate.
•
TriCell Head Section Deflate. The three cells in the
Head Section are fully deflated to assist with patient
care management, and the Shoulder Support Cell
(next to the Head Section) is inflated to a constant
pressure to support the patient’s shoulders. The
remaining 16 cells alternate.
16 Vent Valves The seven Torso cells, four Thigh cells and five
Heelguard cells have individual Vent Valves to allow
each cell to be independently deflated, to assist with
pressure area and patient care management.
