MicroPulse Pressure Ulcer Prevention System

The MicroPulse system is a "small cell" alternating pressure pad and control system designed specifically for the prevention of pressure ulcers. It is designed for the hospital operating table and can be modified for virtually any environment where patients have limited body movement for more than a few hours, such as wheel chairs and bed supports. Unlike other alternating pressure systems available, the MicroPulse pad is thin enough to support the patient and yet does not cause any patient movement — an absolute necessity for use in the Operating room.

Two clinical studies have verified the efficacy of the MicroPulse system verses conventional management. No other pressure ulcer prevention system can claim this level of effectiveness.
