The TheraFlow8 is a 1 in 3 alternating air mattress replacement system from Patient Support Systems, an Australian maker. Eighteen single-chamber TPU cells, 210 mm deep, alternate on a 10 minute cycle to relieve pressure under the client. This king single version comes with the Semi-Zone kit fitted, which holds support under the sacrum when the backrest is raised past 25 degrees and maintains it to 80 degrees of elevation. The control unit is included and the sleep surface is 2000 x 1070 mm.
Key features
- 1 in 3 cell alternation, 10 minutes per cycle
- 18 single-chamber TPU cells, 210 mm deep
- Semi-Zone kit maintains sacral support to 80 degrees of backrest elevation
- Control unit included, with static mode for transfers and care

Who it suits
Specify it for clients who need active alternating pressure care and spend long periods sitting up in bed: people who eat, read or receive care with the backrest raised, where a standard alternating mattress loses effective support under the sacrum as the head end lifts. It suits home care on an adjustable bed, aged care and rehabilitation settings.
Good to know
- Full mattress replacement, not an overlay; it goes onto the bed platform in place of the existing mattress
- Sized for a king single adjustable bed frame
- Control unit included, so there is no separate pump to order
- Two year warranty
