Introducció
This manual provides comprehensive instructions for the setup, operation, and maintenance of your Vive 8-Inch Alternating Pressure Mattress System. This system is designed to assist in the prevention, treatment, and management of pressure ulcers and bed sores by continuously redistributing pressure points.
Informació de seguretat
- Always consult a healthcare professional for proper patient care and positioning.
- Ensure the mattress is correctly installed and secured to prevent shifting.
- Do not use near open flames or sources of ignition.
- Mantingueu la unitat de la bomba allunyada de l'aigua o de la humitat excessiva.
- In case of power failure, the mattress will deflate. Consider backup power options if continuous inflation is critical.
- For emergency situations requiring immediate patient access or CPR, utilize the CPR pull straps to rapidly deflate the mattress.

Instruccions de configuració
- Prepareu el marc del llit: Ensure the bed frame is clean and free of any sharp objects that could damage the mattress. If replacing an existing mattress, remove it.
- Col·loca el matalàs: Unroll the Vive Alternating Pressure Mattress onto the bed frame. Ensure the foot-end of the mattress, indicated by the footprint graphic, is at the foot of the bed.
- Assegurar el matalàs: Utilize the integrated straps to secure the mattress to the bed frame. Wrap the straps around the bed frame and fasten them to prevent the mattress from shifting.
- Attach the Pump Unit: The variable pressure pump unit features two non-marking hooks. Attach the pump securely to the footboard or headboard of the bed.
- Connecteu les mànegues d'aire: Connect the air hoses from the mattress to the corresponding ports on the pump unit. Ensure connections are secure to prevent air leaks.
- Plug in the Pump: Plug the pump unit's power cord into a standard electrical outlet.
- Inflació inicial: Press the power button on the pump unit. The mattress will begin to inflate. Allow approximately 20-30 minutes for the mattress to fully inflate and stabilize before patient use.

Instruccions de funcionament
The control panel on the pump unit allows for customization of pressure settings and modes.

Funcions del tauler de control:
- Botó d'encesa: Turns the pump unit on or off.
- Pressure Indicators: Lights indicate "Low Pressure" (red) or "Normal Pressure" (green).
- Botons d'ajust de pressió (+/-): Adjust the firmness of the mattress. The digital display shows the current pressure setting (in mmHg).
- Mode assegut: Adjusts pressure distribution for patients in a sitting position, typically when the bed is reclined.
- Mode estàtic: Maintains a constant, even pressure across all air cells, suitable for nursing treatments or when a stable surface is preferred. This mode automatically reverts to alternating pressure after 30 minutes.
- Alarma: Indicates accidental power loss or low pressure.
- Botó de bloqueig: Locks the control panel settings to prevent accidental changes. Hold for 2 seconds to activate/deactivate.
Alternating Pressure Function:
The mattress features 16 air chambers that alternately inflate and deflate to continuously shift pressure points. This cycle helps to promote circulation and prevent skin breakdown. The three air cells at the head of the bed remain static to provide stable head support.
Figura 5: The static head section of the mattress provides stable support.
Figura 6: Illustration of the alternating inflation and deflation cycle of the air chambers.
Emergency CPR Function:
In an emergency requiring immediate CPR, pull the red "CPR" straps located at the head of the mattress. This action rapidly deflates the air cells, providing a firm surface for resuscitation.

Manteniment
- Neteja de la coberta: The waterproof vinyl cover can be wiped clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Ensure the cover is completely dry before zipping it back onto the mattress.
- Inspecting Hoses: Periodically check air hoses for kinks, tears, or loose connections.
- Pump Unit Care: Keep the pump unit clean and free from dust. Do not immerse the pump in water.
- Emmagatzematge: If storing the mattress, ensure it is fully deflated, clean, and dry. Fold or roll neatly and store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
Resolució de problemes
| Problema | Causa possible | Solució |
|---|---|---|
| Mattress not inflating or losing air | Loose hose connection, power not connected, pump malfunction, leak in mattress/hoses. | Check all hose connections. Ensure pump is plugged in and powered on. Inspect mattress and hoses for punctures or tears. Contact customer support if pump is faulty. |
| Low Pressure Indicator (red light) is on | Insufficient air pressure in the mattress. | Verify all connections. Check for leaks. Ensure the patient's weight does not exceed the mattress capacity. |
| La bomba és sorollosa | Normal operation, or pump not securely placed. | Ensure the pump is placed on a stable surface or securely hooked to the bed frame. Some operational noise is normal. |
| Mattress deflates during power outage | Lack of continuous power supply. | This is expected behavior. Consider a backup power supply if continuous inflation is critical for patient care. |
