Repose Trolley Mattress Overlay is available specifically for use during transportation of patients and can be fitted to almost all types of patient trolley used in the hospital environment. The Repose Trolley Mattress Overlay is also suitable for use in ambulances and is x-ray translucent so can remain on the trolley should the patient require x-rays to be taken. The Repose Trolley Mattress Overlay can be easily deflated in emergency situations. Repose Trolley Companion is a unique device that moves with the patient, combining effective pressure redistribution and safer lateral transfers. ‘A logical solution to lateral transfer’ – Rather than move the patient from one surface to another, move them together. A patient is likely to experience a wide variety of support surfaces throughout the journey from admission to discharge – some may provide adequate pressure redistribution but typically, most will not. In addition, the transfers between surfaces may cause pressure damage due to the friction and shear forces exerted in many lateral transfer procedures.
