Repose Babynest

Repose Babynest is a mattress designed for use by neonates and children at risk for pressure ulcers. The Repose Babynest is an adaptation of the Repose pressure ulcer prevention and treatment concept but is specifically aimed at reducing pressure ulcer formation during the first stages of a preterm infant’s life. The inability for premature infants to support their limbs can result in a range of developmental complications. The Repose Babynest consists of a base mattress with an additional air filled border along the foot end of the product. These borders act as developmental boundaries that help with nesting the infant with or without additional padding (for example cotton sheeting). It is indicated for use in incubators and warmers in Special Care Baby Unit (SCBU) and Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). In addition, it helps to muffle background noise.
