pressure of the constant low pressure mode by 20% in each direction.
When using the pulsation setting, to return to alternating it is necessary to manually
reselect alternating from the therapy menu, it will not automatically default back.
4) Max inflate: Inflates the cells to maximum pressure (40mmHg) to provide a stable,
static support surface.
The system will automatically revert back to alternation mode after 20 minutes for
patient safety.
