ROHO DRY FLOATATION Mattress Overlay System

ROHO Non-Powered Mattress Overlay Systems Features

With 720 air cells, this mattress overlay allows for greater conformity and better pressure distribution. Each cell is specially treated to minimize friction and resulting shear.

The four sections of the mattress overlay are independently adjusted, providing a low-pressure environment over multiple the entire contact areas of the body.

The DRY FLOATATION system reduces the risk of pressure injuries. It therefore may assist in the provides prevention and therapeutic coverage for all pressure injuries and facilitate wound healing including deep tissue injuries. The ability to “float” in the mattress overlay promotes healing and reduces soft tissue deformation.

Using laser Doppler velocimetry in a year-long study*, it was proven that blood flow increased at least four times the baseline value when an individual was immersed in the DRY FLOATATION mattress overlay.

Drainage holes in the base of the mattress overlay allow for moisture to drain away from the body.

This overlay can be used in any clinical setting or at home. It also is ideal for home, allowing earlier discharge for some individuals. 3.5″ (8 cm) high air cells can be adjusted to the individual’s body shape, size, and position over time.

Non-powered. Requires no external power source.

Easy to clean. May be cleaned and disinfected. Please take a look at the operations manual for instructions.

Extends the overall life of the mattress overlay.

Cover options. Reusable and full enclosure covers are available.

ROHO DRY FLOATATION Mattress Overlay System Buyer’s Guide

Keywords: ROHO DRY FLOATATION Mattress Overlay System, ROHO mattress overlay, pressure injury prevention, air cell mattress overlay, pressure ulcer relief

The ROHO DRY FLOATATION Mattress Overlay System is a non-powered, air-filled mattress support surface engineered to provide advanced pressure relief and tissue protection. Designed for individuals who are at high risk for or currently managing pressure injuries, this overlay uses flexible, interconnected air cells to mimic the pressure-redistributing properties of water without the weight or instability.

Advanced DRY FLOATATION Technology

The ROHO DRY FLOATATION Mattress Overlay System conforms closely to the unique contours of the body. By allowing the individual to sink gently into the air cells, it maximizes contact surface area and significantly reduces peak pressure points over sensitive bony prominences like the sacrum, heels, and hips.

Effective Pressure Injury Prevention

Ideal for home care, long-term facilities, and medical environments, this ROHO mattress overlay supports both the prevention and treatment of stage I through IV pressure ulcers. Its continuous fluid-like movement helps maintain soft tissue integrity during extended bed rest.

Sectional Design for Customization

The overlay consists of four separate, interconnected sections that snap together to cover a standard medical or hospital bed mattress. These individual sections can be adjusted independently, allowing caregivers to customize inflation levels for targeted support or replace single sections if needed.

Minimizes Shear and Friction Forces

Each flexible air cell mattress overlay section moves independently with the body. This reduces the mechanical shearing and friction forces that often occur during transfers, position changes, or elevation of the bed head, preserving fragile skin tissue.

Non-Powered for Quiet, Reliable Operation

Unlike dynamic alternating pressure systems that rely on noisy pumps and constant electricity, this system functions entirely without external power. It operates silently, eliminating electrical risks and providing uninterrupted pressure ulcer relief even during power outages.

Easy to Clean and Maintain

Constructed from flame-resistant, durable neoprene rubber, the overlay is resistant to body fluids and simple to sanitize. It can be easily washed with soap and water or standard disinfectant solutions, making routine hygiene straightforward for caregivers.

Drainage Holes for Moisture Control

Built-in ventilation channels between the air cells promote continuous airflow around the patient's body. Drainage holes allow air to circulate and moisture to evaporate, helping to manage skin microclimate and reduce heat build-up.

Lightweight and Portable Structure

Weighing significantly less than water-filled or heavy gel mattresses, the ROHO overlay is easy to roll up, store, and transport. It is a convenient solution for individuals transitioning between clinical settings and home care environments.

ROHO DRY FLOATATION Mattress Overlay System Review

Users and clinical caregivers consistently praise the ROHO DRY FLOATATION Mattress Overlay System for its unmatched pressure redistribution, silent comfort, and durable construction. Its adaptable modular design and proven skin protection make it a trusted choice for long-term bed rest management.
