Advanced non-powered pressure redistribution with upgradeable therapy capability — the PressureGuard Custom Care mattress combines reactive air support and foam design to deliver consistent pressure redistribution without requiring a powered system.
This mattress features Span America’s Star Chamber technology, using air-filled support cylinders that remain active at all times. These cylinders are oriented head-to-foot to improve weight distribution and immersion compared to traditional designs.
For facilities and caregivers needing flexibility, the Custom Care platform can be upgraded with powered control units to provide alternating pressure and lateral rotation therapy as patient needs evolve.

- Patients at moderate to high risk for pressure injuries
- Patients who cannot or will not reposition frequently
- Individuals needing pressure redistribution without powered systems
- Care environments that may require therapy upgrades later
- Long-term care, rehab, and home care settings

Why Choose the PressureGuard Custom Care?
The Custom Care mattress stands out by delivering therapeutic pressure redistribution without requiring a powered system. This reduces complexity for caregivers while still providing a high level of clinical performance.
Unlike standard foam mattresses, the integrated air support system adapts to the patient’s body, improving immersion and reducing pressure concentration across vulnerable areas.
Its ability to convert into a powered therapy surface makes it a long-term solution that can adapt as patient needs change, reducing the need for replacement systems.
