Introducing the ONLY Powered Skin Protection System Developed for Patients in the Prone Position<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

InteliDerm\u2122 Powered Skin Protection System<\/strong><\/a> is the first product of its kind developed for use with patients in the prone position to reduce pressure injury risk with active skin management technology. The InteliDerm System is part of the <\/span><\/strong>Pronova-O2<\/sub><\/strong> Automated Prone Therapy System<\/strong><\/a>, providing the added benefit of pressure injury prevention with moisture and temperature management for the face and chest.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Upon careful review of the prone position and unique risks for pressure injury<\/a>, as well as how moisture and temperature impact pressure injury<\/a>, Turn Medical has developed the InteliDerm\u2122 Powered Skin Protection System to maximize reduction of pressure injury risk in the face and chest for patients in the prone position<\/span><\/strong>. Much thought was put into product development to provide pressure redistribution and immersion, a fabric with friction reducing properties, and active reduction of moisture accumulation at the skin surface.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

InteliDerm was tested and compared against the standard manual prone positioning foam and its ability to reduce moisture and temperature. There were some exciting findings from the testing:<\/p>\n
