The Joerns Dolphin Fluid Immersion Simulation (FIS) Mattress System allows normal blood flow and promotes healing with the use of Laser Doppler Flowmetry that redistributes pressure. The mattress comes with a 12 hour battery backup and and uses your weight and body contour to relieve pressure and help heal skin breakdowns. The dolphin mattress fits several 36, 42 or 48 inch width beds. (bed not included)


The dolphin uses a microprocessor to continuously adjust to the patients position and immersion into the surface, the system creates a fluttering sound as it adjusts to the user's movements. The Dolphin adjusts as needed while the standard low air loss and/or alternating pressure surfaces are static processes, meaning they do the exact same thing every time.

Features and Benefits of the Joerns Dolphin Mattress

  • Please partner with your healthcare team regarding clinical indications that make the Dolphin the right choice.
  • Originally developed by the U.S. Navy, the mattress uses Fluid Immersion Simulation (FIS) System to treat patients with varying needs

  • Reduces the potential of skin breakdowns and pressure sores (up to stage four) and helps heal exiting wounds
  • Once patient is transferred to mattress, system automatically adjusts to patients weight and surface area to maximize benefits
  • The FIS System mimics buoyancy with 3 levels of volumetric engagement which helps with patients blood flow while making them feel like they are floating on top of the water
  • Easy to use Comfort firmness buttons provide the ability to adjust the mattress slightly for each users needs
  • Mattress runs on 120V electricity with a 12 hour backup battery life when needed

    • HOW DOES THE DOLPHIN FLUID IMMERSION SIMULATION WORK? It is easy!
    STEP 1Patient lays down and the Dolphin FIS calculates the patient's weightSTEP 2As patient sinks into the surface, the Dolphin FIS calculates the surface area and provides the correct amount of air density to mimic fluid immersion.STEP 3Vascular Occlusion (measurement of blood blocked) is minimized as the Dolphin FIS dynamically reacts to patient's movement allowing for maintained near normal blood flow.
    STATE OF THE ART PROPRIETARY SOFTWARE by JOERNS
    The Dolphin is a specialized mattress which utilizes the unique Archimedes linker algorithm to measure a patient's weight and body contour and automatically imprints the data into a computerized control unit, whichexamines the data and automatically adjusts the mattress to create a neutrally buoyant, three dimensional support surface environment. The system continues to monitor the surface every 11 seconds or 300 times per hour for any patient movement. Absolutely no guesswork!
