The evidence

Clinically proven to deliver statistically significant patient benefits

Repose has demonstrated consistently low levels of pressure ulcer incidence across multiple studies.

The range

Reactive air, pressure redistribution and reduction

Healthcare professionals involved in the prevention and treatment of pressure ulcers are often faced with time constraints, limited resources and increasing budget pressures, all of which can impact on patient outcomes.

Repose is a range of reactive air support surfaces with high levels of immersion and envelopment. A combination of unique materials and Smart Valve Technology has been clinically proven to deliver statistically significant patient benefits.

  • High levels of immersion and envelopment
  • Indicated from at risk through to very high risk
  • Indicated for the treatment of all categories of pressure ulcer
  • Reusable for multi-patient use

How it works

A unique combination of materials and Smart Valve Technology

Four things do the work. Select a marker on the image, or read the notes beside it.

  1. Six-way stretch TPU

    Repose thermoplastic polyurethane offers six-times multi-directional stretch, giving patients exceptional levels of comfort along with optimum immersion and envelopment.

  2. Single-cell reactive air

    The single cell design offers high levels of immersion and envelopment, ensuring optimum pressure redistribution for the prevention and treatment of pressure ulcers.

  3. Smart Valve Technology

    Easy to use, reliable, and inflates to 0.2psi every time — the optimum target value for pressure redistribution and clinical efficacy.

  4. Breathable, with no sharp edges

    Repose is breathable and has no sharp edges, increasing comfort and compliance and reducing the risk of tissue damage.

In detail

Inside the technology

The Repose reactive air, single cell design offers high levels of immersion and envelopment, ensuring optimum pressure redistribution for the prevention and treatment of pressure ulcers.

Repose thermoplastic polyurethane offers six-times multi-directional stretch, optimum immersion and envelopment, providing patients exceptional levels of comfort and pressure redistribution properties.

In use

Deployed in minutes when a patient is at risk

  1. Select

    Choose the Repose product for the patient and the setting, from cushion to mattress overlay.

  2. Inflate

    The Smart Valve inflates to 0.2psi — the optimum target value — every time, with no calibration.

  3. Position

    Immersion and envelopment do the work. No power, no pump, and nothing to fail at the bedside.

  4. Clean and reuse

    Clean in line with local policy and redeploy for the next patient, for several years.

Indications

Protection at every level of risk

All levels of risk

Repose is indicated for the prevention of pressure ulcers for patients from at risk to very high risk, when used as part of a package of care.

All categories of pressure ulcer

Repose is indicated for the treatment of all categories of pressure ulcer when used as part of a package of care.

A cost-effective solution

Multi-patient use and a three-year warranty provide a cost-effective solution for the prevention and treatment of pressure ulcers.

Unlike other reactive air products and dynamic systems, through randomised control trials Repose reduces peak and average pressures and consistently delivers low levels of pressure ulcer incidence, in a cost-effective and easy to use system.

Cost of care

Cared for correctly, Repose keeps working

Repose is easy to clean in line with local policy and reusable for multi-patient use. If cared for correctly, Repose will provide pressure ulcer prevention for several years (5).

Repose is manufactured in the UK and comes supplied with a three-year warranty as standard (7). Multi-patient use and that warranty together make Repose a cost-effective solution for both the prevention and the treatment of pressure ulcers.

Repose has a maximum user weight limit of 222kg (6), and is breathable with no sharp edges, increasing comfort and compliance while reducing the risk of tissue damage.
