    Solution

    The user is “bottoming out”

    Open covers and check cells and tubing.

    Check again through hand check

    Hand check (function control) 

    The hand check is used to ensure that the mattress is working properly. This must be performed regularly; we recommend once per shift, or every eight hours. Open the cover and insert your hand between the air cells directly underneath the user’s pelvic region, use a vertical hand. There should be a clearance of 2-3 fingers between mattress base and the user.
