There are important clinical and cost advantages associated with the use of the Softform Mattress.As an integral part of your support surface formulary, the Invacare Softform Mattresses will deliver essential clinical and financial benefits. In two published, randomized clinical studies, the use of the Softform Mattress in place of traditional mattress systems reduced pressure ulcer incidence in high risk patient populations from 34% to 7% and pressure ulcer prevalence from 30% to 9% respectively.1,2 In subsequent work, Gray and colleagues examined the long term performance of the Softform and concluded there was no deterioration of the mattress performance over three years.3 Additionally, James concluded a standardized, static led mattress approach using the Softform mattress improved patient care, produced a significant savings and reduced dynamic mattress rental costs over a three year period.2
