Cair® 1000

Bariatric low air loss therapy system (VA only)

The Cair 1000 is a unique bariatric therapy system that provides pressure redistribution by combining low air loss with pulsation. Low air loss therapy has been demonstrated to reduce the risk of pressure ulcers as well as being a valuable aid in the treatment of pressure ulcers.

Clinical Indications

  • Pressure redistribution: Stage I ‐ IV Pressure Ulcers; Moisture Management Required; Rehabilitation; Burns; Neurology; Dermatology; Amputations
  • Pain Management: AIDS; Arthritis; Oncology
