Dolphin FIS® (Fluid Immersion Simulation) Mattress System

• Fluid Immersion Simulation (FIS®) Technology: Simulates the effects of immersion in a fluid medium, creating a near buoyant state that minimizes soft tissue distortion.
• Automatic Patient Profiling: Continuously measures body characteristics and adjusts immersion depth for personalized, optimal pressure redistribution.
• Enhanced Wound Healing: Promotes normal blood flow and tissue perfusion, reducing shear and friction forces that contribute to skin breakdown.
• Clinically Proven for Complex Cases: Effective in treating Stage I–IV pressure ulcers, burns, flaps, and grafts, as well as patients with spinal injuries.
• Battery Backup for Continuous Care: 12-hour battery life ensures uninterrupted therapy during patient transport or power interruptions.
• Universal Bed Compatibility: Fits most ICU, medical-surgical, and bariatric bed frames, supporting flexibility in hospital and home settings.
• Quiet and Low-Maintenance Design: Engineered for ease of use, low noise operation, and reliable long-term performance.

Q: What makes the Joerns Dolphin FIS® Mattress System different from a standard air mattress?
A: Unlike traditional alternating-pressure mattresses, the Dolphin FIS® system uses Fluid Immersion Simulation technology to replicate the physical properties of water immersion—providing uniform pressure distribution and eliminating harmful shear forces that can impede wound healing.

Q: Who can benefit from using the Dolphin FIS® Mattress System?
A: It is ideal for patients at high risk of pressure ulcers, as well as those with existing wounds, burns, post-operative flaps, or grafts. It also benefits patients with limited mobility or spinal injuries who cannot be frequently repositioned.

Q: Can the Dolphin FIS® mattress be used on standard hospital beds?
A: Yes. The system is designed to fit most hospital bed frames, including ICU, med-surg, and bariatric models, offering easy integration into existing care environments.

Q: How does the system adjust to different patient sizes and weights?
A: The Dolphin FIS® automatically senses each patient’s weight, body shape, and surface area, continuously recalibrating to maintain proper immersion and support throughout use.

Q: Is the Dolphin FIS® Mattress System easy to transport?
A: Yes. With its 12-hour battery life and lightweight, modular design, the system remains fully functional during patient transport or power outages, ensuring uninterrupted care.

Q: What clinical evidence supports the effectiveness of the Dolphin FIS® system?
A: The Dolphin FIS® is backed by peer-reviewed studies and clinical use across leading healthcare facilities, demonstrating its ability to reduce pressure injury incidence and promote faster healing in complex wound cases.
