What is Horizontal Alternating Pressure Technology?
Horizontal Alternating Pressure Technology® (HAPT®) works by providing a constantly changing pressure to the patient's skin, which may promote healing in existing sores and prevent pressure ulcers from even forming in the first place.
How Horizontal Alternating Pressure Technology Works
Our technology works by using the Ease Cushion that inflates and deflates at specific intervals. Our cushion is divided into a series of air cells, which are alternately inflated and deflated using a smart air pump. This creates a wave-like motion that redistributes pressure points, gently massages your skin, helps to increase blood flow and can reduce the risk of pressure ulcers or treat existing ulcers and reduce risk of further damage.
Benefits of HAPT®
Reduced risk of pressure ulcers
Can help healing of pressure ulcers
Increased comfort from increased blood flow
Automatically redistributes weight
Conclusion
Alternating pressure technology is a valuable tool in the prevention and treatment of pressure ulcers. By providing a constantly changing pressure to the patient's skin, the technology can help to increase blood flow, promote healing, and reduce the risk of pressure ulcers forming in the first place. If you or a loved one is at risk for pressure ulcers, Ease Cushion may be the right solution
