ROHO SOFFLEX 2 Mattress Overlay System Buyer’s Guide

The ROHO SOFFLEX 2 Mattress Overlay System is designed to provide pressure redistribution and skin protection for individuals at risk of pressure injuries. This non-powered, air-inflated overlay supports therapeutic care by promoting immersion and envelopment across the body’s surface. 

ROHO SOFFLEX 2 Mattress Overlay System Air Cell Design

The Mattress Overlay System features interconnected air cells arranged in a three-section layout, offering adjustable support zones for the upper body, midsection, and lower body. These air cells allow the surface to conform to the user’s contours, minimizing peak pressure points. 

Pressure Redistribution Through Immersion 

Each air cell in the ROHO SOFFLEX 2 system is designed to allow deep immersion and envelopment, distributing body weight evenly. This helps reduce pressure on bony prominences such as the sacrum and heels, which are common sites of skin breakdown. 

ROHO SOFFLEX 2 Mattress Overlay System Non-Powered Operation 

The Mattress Overlay System operates without electricity, making it suitable for a wide range of care settings, including homes and long-term care facilities. It provides therapeutic support without reliance on external power sources. 

Adjustable Sections for Targeted Support 

The mattress overlay is divided into three adjustable sections, each capable of being inflated or deflated independently. This segmentation enables caregivers or clinicians to tailor the level of support to different parts of the user’s body, promoting individualized care.

ROHO SOFFLEX 2 Mattress Overlay System Lightweight and Portable 

Weighing less than many powered mattress systems, the ROHO SOFFLEX 2 is lightweight and easy to move. This makes it convenient for transport or repositioning across multiple beds or care environments. 

Durable and Cleanable Materials 

Constructed from durable polyurethane, the mattress overlay is designed to withstand regular use and repeated cleaning. The material resists fluid penetration and can be cleaned using standard disinfectants, supporting infection control protocols. 

ROHO SOFFLEX 2 System Compatible with Standard Beds 

The ROHO SOFFLEX 2 Mattress Overlay System fits most standard hospital or homecare bed frames. It can be placed directly over an existing mattress to upgrade comfort and skin protection without a complete bedding replacement. 

Manual Inflation Pump Included 

A hand pump is included with the system to allow for quick and easy inflation. This gives caregivers control over the system’s firmness and allows periodic adjustments based on the user’s needs or clinical recommendations.
