IsoTour™ Patient Support Surface

IsoTour™ Patient Support Surface

IsoTour™ Patient Support Surface is an innovative medical device designed to revolutionize patient care and pressure injury prevention in healthcare settings. This advanced support surface integrates a sophisticated combination of structural gel technology, multiple foam compositions, and strategically placed inflatable bladders to create a comprehensive solution for patient comfort and safety. The system's patented gel technology features a unique 6-inch tall hexagonal structure with minimal draft angles and specialized gel caps, engineered through complex mathematical modeling and nonlinear FEA simulation to optimize pressure distribution across a wide range of patient body types. The surface's distinctive design incorporates a patent-pending offloading turn system utilizing small, narrow bladders positioned beneath the thigh and shoulder blades, enabling caregivers to reposition patients up to 30 degrees while maintaining sacral offloading. This revolutionary medical equipment, which earned a Silver A' Design Award in the Medical Devices and Medical Equipment Design category, addresses critical healthcare challenges including pressure injury prevention and caregiver injury reduction. The system's versatility is enhanced by its ability to transform into a powered unit through an external pump connection, providing advanced microclimate management and turn assist capabilities for high-risk patients. The design's technical specifications accommodate various clinical settings with overall lengths of 2000mm or 2140mm, a width of 902mm, and a thickness of 241mm, while the accompanying pump unit measures 419.1mm in height, 215.9mm in width, and 171.45mm in depth. This innovative solution represents a significant advancement in medical surface technology, combining clinical efficacy with practical functionality to enhance patient outcomes and caregiver safety.
