The Joerns® Advanced Surfaces Dolphin Fluid Immersion Simulation® System is a medical device designed for pressure redistribution and pain management, suitable for use in various healthcare settings. It is available in both adult and pediatric versions.
The Dolphin Fluid Immersion Simulation (FIS) System is a mattress replacement system that utilizes state-of-the-art pressure redistribution technology to alleviate vertical shear forces. It creates a neutrally buoyant, 3D support environment by automatically adjusting to the patient's body weight and profile, requiring no manual data input. The system continuously monitors the surface more than 100 times per second for any patient movement, ensuring optimal support.
The system is comprised of two main components: a therapy control unit and a therapy mattress system or specialty surface (which can include a wheelchair cushion or stretcher pad). The exterior surface of the therapy pad is constructed from a smooth nylon fabric with low friction and low shear properties to protect the patient's skin. This fabric is also breathable and moisture vapor permeable, allowing air to circulate and wick away excess moisture to prevent skin maceration.
