Therapeutic Support
The Carilex Entrix NX 5" Overlay system is engineered to offer optimal therapeutic support for patients at high risk of developing pressure injuries, or those with existing Stage 2 pressure sores. The 16 individual 5-inch air cells work in a 10-minute cycle in dynamic mode to periodically redistribute pressure, promoting blood flow and reducing the risk of tissue damage. The static mode provides a constant low-pressure surface for patients who may not tolerate a moving surface or during specific care procedures.
The system's Intelligent Pressure Sensing technology is a key component, actively monitoring and adjusting the internal pressure of the mattress in response to patient movement. This ensures that the patient receives consistent and appropriate pressure relief at all times, enhancing comfort and therapeutic effectiveness. The Entrix NX Pump, integral to the system, is lightweight and operates quietly, contributing to a restful environment for the patient.
Design and Usability
Designed with both the patient and caregiver in mind, the Entrix NX 5" Overlay is straightforward to set up and use. The system includes a 2-way stretch cover that is washable, aiding in infection control and maintaining hygiene. A power cable management system helps to keep cords tidy and reduce trip hazards. For emergency situations, a clearly marked CPR pull tab allows for quick deflation of the mattress. The memory recall function ensures that settings are retained in the event of a power interruption, saving time and ensuring continuous therapy once power is restored.
