Span America PressureGuard CFT Mattress

Span America PressureGuard CFT Mattress features Constant Force Technology(CFT) which automatically adjust the mattress network of interconnected air cylinders and elasticized reservoirs to the appropriate, therapeutic levels for each patient, regardless of their weight or position on the surface. This allows greater immersion of the body into the mattress, which decreases pressures under any single point, and distributes pressures over as great an area as possible.
