Pressure Prevention Devices
For anyone spending extended time in bed or a chair, pressure injuries are a serious but largely preventable risk. HTKS Medical Supplies provides pressure-relieving mattresses, cushions, and positioning aids that protect vulnerable skin and support comfortable, safer care at home and in hospitals.
Air Mattresses vs. Foam Support Surfaces
Alternating Air Mattresses
Powered mattresses with air cells that inflate and deflate in cycles, continuously shifting pressure points. Recommended for higher-risk patients, those with limited mobility, and existing pressure injury care.
Foam Mattresses and Cushions
High-density and memory foam surfaces that spread body weight evenly without power. Quiet, low-maintenance protection for lower-risk users, wheelchair cushioning, and everyday comfort in bed or chair.
Who needs one?
- Bedridden patients and those with limited mobility
- Wheelchair users seated for long periods
- Elderly individuals with fragile skin
- Caregivers and facilities managing long-term patient care
How to Choose?
- Risk level — alternating air for high risk, foam for prevention and comfort
- Correct size for the bed or wheelchair
Weight capacity and patient comfort - Waterproof, washable covers for hygiene
- Pump noise and power backup for air systems
