The Certeza AM-205 is an alternating pressure air mattress designed for the prevention and treatment of pressure ulcers (bedsores) in bedridden and immobile patients. By continuously alternating between inflated and deflated cells on a 12-minute cycle, it systematically redistributes body weight — preventing any single area of skin from sustaining prolonged compression, which is the primary cause of pressure ulcer development.
The pressure adjustment knob allows the caregiver to set the most appropriate inflation level for each patient within the 40–100 mmHg range. The maximum patient weight capacity is 110 kg. End flaps on the mattress ensure stable placement on the bed frame, while a hook on the pump allows convenient wall or bed-rail mounting for easy access.
Constructed from beige PVC and powered at just 7 watts, the AM-205 is an energy-efficient, durable mattress system suitable for both home and clinical settings.

Warnings and Precautions
- This mattress is a pressure management device — it does not replace repositioning, wound care, or other clinical interventions recommended by a healthcare professional.
- Do not exceed the 110 kg patient weight capacity.
- Do not use sharp objects near the mattress — punctures will compromise effectiveness.
- Pressure settings should be confirmed with a healthcare professional for each patient.
- Keep the pump vents clear and do not cover the pump unit during operation.
- Inspect regularly for damaged cells or air leaks and remove from service if damage is found.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does this mattress differ from the LifeChek TD-100?
Both are alternating pressure air mattresses for bedsore prevention. The Certeza AM-205 has a 12-minute cycle time and supports up to 110 kg, with a pressure range of 40–100 mmHg. The LifeChek TD-100 has a 6-minute cycle and supports up to 135 kg, with a higher pressure range of 70–130 mmHg. The TD-100 is generally suited to heavier patients or where faster pressure alternation is clinically required.
Does this mattress replace the bed mattress?
No. The AM-205 is an overlay system — it is placed on top of a standard mattress or hospital bed and requires the support of an underlying firm surface.
How do I set the correct pressure?
Use the pressure adjustment knob to set the inflation level within the 40–100 mmHg range. The optimal setting depends on the patient’s body weight and skin condition. Always consult a nurse or healthcare professional for guidance on appropriate pressure settings.
Is this mattress suitable for home use?
Yes. The AM-205 is designed for both home and clinical settings. At 7 watts, it is energy-efficient for continuous 24-hour operation.
