Drive Mattress Cover for 14027 Beds

Why Choose the Drive Mattress Cover for 14027 Beds?

The Med-Aire low air loss and alternating pressure mattress system is a clinical investment in pressure injury prevention — but the cover is the component that directly contacts the patient, and a damaged, saturated, or compromised cover undermines the performance of the entire system. Fluid that penetrates a failed cover can contaminate the mattress cells and bladders, creating an infection control risk and degrading the low air loss function. A cover with excessive friction or non-breathable material creates shear forces at the skin surface that counteract the pressure redistribution the mattress is designed to provide. The Drive Mattress Cover for 14027 Beds is engineered to work with the mattress system rather than against it. The fluid-resistant nylon surface prevents fluid penetration to the mattress components while the vapour-permeable construction allows heat and moisture to escape at the skin surface — supporting the low air loss function of the mattress system and reducing the maceration that contributes to pressure injury. The low-friction, low-shear surface reduces the tangential forces on the patient's skin during movement and repositioning. Sized at approximately 36" W x 80" L x 8" H for the 14027 system. Compatible with 14027 and 14028N models. Removable and replaceable.

Key Features

• Fluid-resistant nylon surface prevents fluid penetration to mattress cells and bladders
• Vapour-permeable construction allows heat and moisture transmission at the skin surface
• Low friction and low shear surface reduces tangential skin forces during repositioning
• Compatible with Drive Med-Aire 14027 and 14028N mattress systems
• Removable and replaceable design for straightforward cover replacement
• Dimensions approximately 36" W x 80" L x 8" H
• Maintains infection control by protecting internal mattress components from contamination

Benefits

• Fluid-resistant surface preserves the integrity and hygiene of the mattress bladder system
• Vapour permeability supports the low air loss function by allowing moisture to escape at the skin interface
• Low-shear surface preserves the pressure redistribution effectiveness of the alternating pressure system
• Correct model compatibility ensures proper fit and maintained mattress system performance
• Replaceable cover allows continued use of the mattress system when the cover wears or becomes damaged
• Supports infection control in clinical settings where mattress hygiene is a care quality requirement

Clinical & Typical Applications

Hospitals and long-term care facilities using Drive Med-Aire 14027 alternating pressure mattress systems that require replacement covers due to cover wear, fluid penetration, or damage

Home care patients on a Drive Med-Aire 14027 or 14028N pressure relief mattress system where the original cover requires replacement to maintain system hygiene and performance

Wound care and pressure injury prevention programmes that depend on low air loss mattress system function — where a compromised cover would undermine the therapeutic effect

Infection control programmes requiring systematic cover replacement as part of equipment decontamination and maintenance protocols between patient uses

Occupational therapists and wound care nurses managing pressure relief mattress equipment for at-risk patients where cover condition directly affects therapeutic outcome

Medical equipment suppliers providing replacement components for Drive Med-Aire systems as part of ongoing home equipment maintenance and support
