Meridian Electronic APM Pump
This Digital High-output Pump is included on select APM systems or an upgrade pump for select Ultra-Care APM’s. It offers both alternating pressure and static operation modes, plus the high-efficiency dual compressor increases patient comfort and the systems weight capacity.
The Meridian Electronic APM Pump is a specialized medical device designed to provide controlled and adjustable air pressure for Alternating Pressure Mattress (APM) systems. Alternating Pressure Mattress systems are designed to prevent and manage pressure ulcers (bedsores) by cyclically redistributing pressure across the patient’s body. The Meridian Electronic APM Pump works in conjunction with these mattresses to achieve this goal.
The Meridian Electronic APM Pump is commonly used in healthcare facilities, including hospitals, long-term care centers, and rehabilitation centers, where patients require pressure ulcer prevention and management. When used with compatible APM mattresses, the Electronic APM Pump offers clinical benefits such as improved wound healing, enhanced patient comfort, and reduced pressure ulcer risk.
Proper setup, usage, and maintenance of the Meridian Electronic APM Pump and the associated APM system require consultation with healthcare professionals. Wound care specialists, nurses, and doctors can provide guidance on appropriate settings and usage protocols. Depending on the model, some Meridian Electronic APM Pumps may be portable, allowing for flexible usage in various healthcare settings.
