Description
The Talley Quattro Plus Mattress offers 1-in-4 alternating cell cycle therapy, ensuring continuous support for 75% of the body at all times. This dynamic therapy reduces stimulus-related complications and promotes tissue reperfusion by redistributing pressure during each cycle.
‘Tissuegard’ air cell technology allows partial immersion and envelopment, minimising shear and supporting skin integrity. Combined with Ortho-Differential Support (ODS), the mattress provides firmer edges for safer transfers and a softer centre for lighter individuals.
Multiple therapy modes cater to different clinical scenarios. Auto Support adjusts pressures in real time based on weight, movement and positioning. Continuous low pressure and maximum inflation modes allow carers to tailor support during repositioning or specific procedures.
The silent and reliable pump unit is lightweight and fitted with hanging brackets and a carry handle for versatile setup.
A multi-stretch, waterproof cover with welded seams protects against fluid ingress and supports hygiene.
The Quattro Plus is suitable for all care environments, offering a clinically tested solution for those with advanced pressure care needs.
Who it’s for
- For clients who are at high to very high risk of pressure injuries and require advanced therapy modes.
- For therapists wanting a responsive, multi-mode alternating air mattress for diverse clinical settings.
Key features
- Active 1-in-4 cell cycle – supports 75% of the patient’s body at all times, on groups of three inflated cells, whilst the fourth cell deflates sufficiently to redistribute the pressure and encourage tissue reperfusion. Additional benefits include enhanced patient comfort, less awareness of support surface movement and a reduction of stimulus-related complications such as muscle spasms
- Tissuegard air cell – ‘Tissuegard’ enables the partial immersion and envelopment of the patient into the support surface, reducing the pressure on the patient’s skin and decreasing the pressure differential between inflated and deflated cells, which helps reduce tissue strain and associated shearing forces
- Ortho-differential support – ‘ODS’ results in firmer outer edges of the mattress which facilitate patient transfers and provide extra support, safety and comfort for larger or heavier patients. It also creates a softer central area of the mattress, ideal for smaller, lighter patients
- Auto Support – ‘Auto Support’ automatically adjusts pressure within each of the cells throughout the cycle so that support, posture and therapy are constantly maintained at optimum levels, in response to patient weight, movement and position. Equalisation of cell pressure automatically takes place at each stage of the cycle, again to ensure precise pressure and therapy is applied
- Reactive therapy – reactive therapy enhances patient immersion and envelopment into the mattress and applies a constant low pressure to the skin and subcutaneous tissue
- Comfort control – allows the carer to adjust the comfort setting in either therapy mode to help patient compliance
- Phase flow – ‘Phase Flow’ pressure control pump operates on demand only, reducing power consumption, noise and extending service life
- Continuous low pressure – when in continuous low pressure mode, pressure is equalised within the cells to create a reactive therapy surface, allowing greater immersion and envelopment into the mattress and optimum pressure distribution
- Pressure relieving stretch cover – the multi-stretch cover promotes tissue offloading during cell deflation and reduces shear and friction during patient movement or manual repositioning. The material is waterproof, moisture-vapour permeable and all seams are welded to protect the inside of the mattress from fluid ingress
- Maximum inflation – inflates the mattress to maximum static pressure for 15 minutes before returning to previous therapy mode, necessary for some nursing procedures when an active support surface is unsuitable
- Low air loss – air is released and circulated beneath the mattress cover to reduce humidity and help manage the skin ‘microclimate’ between the patient and the support surface.
- CPR facility – for simple and effective rapid deflation to enable CPR procedures
- Cable management system – in-built cable management system to enhance safety and usability in clinical and homecare settings
