About Nimbus 3 and Nimbus 3 Professional
Nimbus 3 and Nimbus 3 Professional are Dynamic
Flotation Systems for the prevention, treatment and
management of pressure ulcers.
Nimbus 3 and Nimbus 3 Professional systems comprise
a pump and mattress replacement which can be used on
standard hospital and normal domestic beds. Beds can
be adjusted or profiled with the mattress in position.
The
Nimbus 3 Professional mattress has the following
additional features to enable the patient to be proned,
and to assist with pressure area and patient care
management:
• A Head Section Deflate Control to allow the three
head cells to be fully deflated.
• Individual Vent Valves to allow 16 of the 20 cells to
be independently deflated.
The
Nimbus 3 and Nimbus 3 Professional mattresses
incorporate an advanced
AutoMatt
®
sensor pad which
makes sure that the patient is automatically supported at
optimum pressures regardless of size, height, position or
weight distribution.
If cardiac arrest occurs, the
Nimbus 3 and Nimbus 3
Professional mattresses can be deflated in less than 10
seconds to allow cardiac resuscitation procedures to be
performed.
