Blue Jay Alternating Pressure Pump and Pad System with Flaps

The Blue Jay Alternating Pressure Pump and Pad System is a deluxe adjustable pressure relief system designed for hospital and home care use. The A-B alternating air lines inflate and deflate 96 individual air cells in a preset 12-minute cycle to help redistribute pressure and improve comfort for individuals who spend extended time in bed. The pad is placed directly on top of an existing mattress and secured with 15.75" end flaps that wrap underneath for added stability. The quiet adjustable pump provides variable pressure settings from 20–120 mmHg and delivers 6 liters per minute of consistent airflow. A lighted on/off switch and built-in bed bracket make setup and operation straightforward.
