A hospital mattress is a pressure-relieving mattress system created for the convenience of patients in recovery who are constrained to their bed for much more than 15 hours per day. Such patients can develop bedsores, which can progress to pressure ulcers.

These bed mattresses aid in the prevention of pressure ulcers. Medical air mattresses use intermittent pressure and low air loss therapy to enhance circulation in the patient's body, preventing skin breakdown caused by low blood flow. The mattress layers are full of air-filled them and are made up of several simultaneous air cylinders. These cylinders, when combined, form an air-filled pressure mattress.
