SPAN PressureGuard Bariatric APM
The Span America Pressureguard Bariatric APM Mattress delivers advanced pressure management and therapeutic support for patients up to 750 lbs. Designed for bariatric care, it provides alternating pressure air therapy that distributes weight evenly and reduces the risk of pressure ulcers. Its segmented top surface minimizes sharp pressure drop-offs, while the underlying air system alternates weight-bearing for consistent comfort and safety. With robust construction and clinical-grade technology, this mattress ensures reliability, versatility, and superior care for high-risk or immobile users in hospitals, long-term care facilities, or home healthcare settings.
Features:
- Durable: Bariatric surface with 750 lbs. weight limit suitable for aggressive treatment
- Safety: Prevention of pressure ulcers in immobile/high risk users (through Stage IV)
- Comfort: Alternating Pressure therapy with gentle, effective pressure changes
Alternating Pressure Air Therapy
Unlike other alternating pressure mattresses, the PressureGuard® Bariatric APM does not create extreme pressure gradients between inflated and deflated cylinders.
On top, the Geo-Matt anti-shearing surface forms a comfortable, therapeutic interface between the air system and the user.
It absorbs and smoothes sharp pressure drop-offs that other surfaces can’t, while the air system does the “heavy lifting” below, alternating weightbearing across the surface in ten-minute cycles.
Six cylinders are programmed to inflate/deflate in a four-up-two-down pattern, ensures maximum patient support throughout the cycle.
Other standard PressureGuard features include the exclusive Heel Slope taper, and two-part Safety-Edge bolster system for added stability when sitting or transferring.
Digital Control Unit Features:

- “Float” (powered flotation therapy) mode
- Timed (20-minute) Auto Firm mode
- Ten electronically-controlled comfort settings
- Programmable cycle times of 20, 25 or 30 minutes
- Low pressure indicator, power failure indicator and audible alarm
- Lockout mode
Pressure Guard Advantages:

- Head-to-foot air cylinders for better pressure reduction
- Better support in seat area when head of bed is raised

Geo Matt Style Foam Topper:

- 2″ deep topper reduces shear to underlying tissues
