Abstract: A cover system includes a first layer providing a top surface over a patient support structure. A layer of spacer material is provided beneath the first layer. An air mover moves air through the layer of spacer material to remove moisture adjacent a person supported by the patient support.

Abstract: A support surface is configured to support a patient thereon and has a base portion that includes an air cushion layer. The support surface also has a layer of three dimensional engineered material above the base portion. The layer of three dimensional engineered material is configured to permit air passage therethrough. The layer of three dimensional engineered material is made of a material other than foam. A cover is positioned between the layer of three dimensional engineered material and the patient to be supported. Air is forced through the layer of three dimensional engineered material.

Abstract: There is provided an inflatable mattress and coverlet used to reduce and treat decubitus ulcers. The mattress is an air inflatable mattress and is particularly adapted for use on a bed in a hospital, nursing home, health care facility or the like. The air inflatable mattress has a series of apertures on the top allowing small amounts of air to pass through to the underside of the coverlet. According to one aspect of the invention the coverlet is placed over the top of air inflatable mattress in the central portion thereof between the head of the bed and the foot of the bed. The coverlet is of sufficient length to extend under the weight bearing portions of the patient. The coverlet has as a first layer a moisture wicking fabric, such as a polyester, and on one side of the moisture wicking fabric there is attached a microporous polymeric member which allows air from the mattress to pass through the coverlet to the patient. Adjacent the polymeric member is another layer comprising a spacer fabric.
