Mattress - Eggcrate
Eggcrate Foam Mattress Overlay is a convoluted foam topper placed over an existing mattress to improve pressure redistribution and airflow for patients at low to moderate pressure injury risk. The eggcrate surface contours under the patient's body weight, reducing peak pressure at bony prominences and improving ventilation across the sleeping surface.
Eggcrate overlays are a low-cost, non-powered pressure management option appropriate for patients who spend extended time in bed but do not yet require powered alternating or low air loss systems. OxyCare supplies eggcrate overlays alongside hospital bed setups, and rental is available.
