Medline A10 LAL / Alternating Pressure Mattress System

A10 LAL / Alternating Pressure Mattress System by Medline

The A10 is designed for patients who need a more advanced pressure-redistribution surface than a conventional foam mattress.

The Medline A10 LAL / Alternating Pressure Mattress System is a powered therapeutic mattress system that combines low-air-loss therapy, alternating-pressure therapy, and static-float therapy in one surface. It is designed to help prevent and treat pressure injuries while helping manage heat and moisture at the skin-to-surface interface. Medline's current catalog identifies the A10 as a 36" × 80" × 8" system with a 440-lb weight capacity and HCPCS code E0277

Medline A10 LAL / Alternating Pressure Mattress System Features

Three therapeutic modes
Low-air-loss, alternating pressure, and static float.

Alternating-pressure therapy
Air cells alternately inflate and deflate to redistribute pressure.

Low-air-loss therapy
Helps manage heat and moisture around the patient's skin.

Static float mode
Provides a stable, supportive surface when alternating therapy is not being used.

Adjustable therapy
Easy-to-use weight adjustment controls allow caregivers to customize pressure settings for the patient.

Low-pressure alarm
Audio and visual indicators alert the caregiver when pressure is too low.

Breathable nylon cover
The cover is water-resistant and designed to reduce shear and friction while facilitating cleaning.

Powered system
The mattress uses a dedicated pump/control unit.

8-inch mattress height
The AirOne is an overlay/pad system, rather than a replacement mattress.

A10 Homecare Air Pressure Mattress Reviews

Jake N

System is working fine for my by bedridden wife. Had an initial problem with pump, but HME and Medline Quality Assurance corrected issues right away and everything is working fine.

Bree S

We ordered a lot of these mattresses for our nursing facility. Standout features: Quick-release tubing and the alternating pressure system. Patients have told us they feel much better, and the fluid-resistant cover makes maintenance so simple. It's been a fantastic addition to our facility.

Anora K

I bought this mattress for my grandmother. It helps her feel cooler and keeps her comforable in resting with alternating pressure. The valve setting is user friendly, and in case the power goes off, the mattress will not lose air. It's also delivered fast, and not so expensive. Well the alarm might be too loud sometimes,but we like the mattress

 

Medline A10 LAL Alternating Pressure Mattress System Buyer’s Guide

The Medline A10 LAL Alternating Pressure Mattress System is a medical-grade surface solution designed to prevent, treat, and manage pressure ulcers (Stages I–IV). Combining alternating pressure therapy with continuous Low Air Loss (LAL) technology, this system redistributes weight dynamically while managing skin heat and moisture accumulation for bedbound individuals in home care or clinical settings.

Dual Therapy: Alternating Pressure & Low Air Loss (LAL)

The mattress system utilizes dual-mode therapeutic technology to optimize skin integrity. The alternating pressure mode systematically inflates and deflates individual air cells on a timed cycle to relieve interface pressure on vulnerable contact points, while the continuous Low Air Loss flow circulates air beneath the surface to control skin temperature and moisture (maceration).

Medline A10 Mattress Digital Control Unit & Customization

Equipped with a digital control pump, caregivers can customize cycle times, adjust comfort levels according to patient weight, and activate static mode for nursing procedures or routine transfers. Built-in visual and audible low-pressure alarms provide continuous safety monitoring.

Deep Air Cell Architecture with Cell-on-Cell Protection

Constructed with deep individual air bladders, the mattress conforms closely to body contours for immersion and pressure redistribution. Many advanced systems include a "cell-on-cell" bottom layer that retains air in the lower section during power outages, preventing the patient from "bottoming out" against the hard bed frame.

Fluid-Proof, Low-Shear Cover

The system is wrapped in a removable, four-way stretch polyurethane or nylon cover that minimizes friction and shear forces on fragile skin. The fluid-proof, vapor-permeable material blocks liquid spills while allowing heat to dissipate, and it cleans easily with standard surface disinfectants.

Quick CPR Deflation and Safety Features

Designed for emergency situations, the mattress includes a quick-release CPR valve that deflates the entire unit in seconds. Non-kink spring-lined tubing ensures uninterrupted airflow, and sturdy attachment straps keep the mattress anchored securely to standard homecare or hospital bed frames.
