QuestionQuestion
• Which type of mattress provides minimal pressure reduction?
a. Water
b. Static air
c. Egg-crate foam
d. Gel

AnswerAnswer
c. Egg-crate foam
Egg-crate foam mattress provides minimal pressure reduction. A water mattress supports the body and equalizes the pressure per square inch over its surface. A static air pressure mattress suspends the client on a buoyant surface, distributing the pressure on the underlying tissue. Gel is an alternative substance used to fill cushions and mattresses.
