Clinicians agree: Immerse is easier to use and more comfortable for burns, flaps and grafts patients—while providing similar or better clinical outcomes compared to air-fluidized therapy (AFT).1,2,3 Twenty 10-inch air cells promote high levels of immersion and envelopment from head-to-heel, while the surface’s low air loss capability and high-tech fabric combine to help control patient microclimate. Immerse is sized to fit most Med-Surg and ICU bed frames, enhancing patient comfort and caregiver access.
