Abstract
Mattress cover material breakdown in the clinical setting has been a recognized problem for over 10 years. Shortly following disruption to the surface integrity, mattresses become contaminated with body fluids, which leads to bottoming-out of the foam, putting patients at increased risk of infection and pressure ulcer formation. Collaboration between manufacturers and clinicians has produced a product that should stand up to the rigours of the healthcare market, providing safety for patients and value for money as a result of extended mattress life.
