Hampton II Active Mattress (900 mm Width) - Durable Pressure Relief for Very High-Risk Patients.
- 20-Cell Nylon-TPU Construction for Very High Risk - the Hampton II provides 20 alternating air cells constructed from nylon with TPU lining, delivering effective pressure redistribution for residents at very high risk of pressure ulceration including those with stage 4 injuries; nylon-TPU construction combines the dimensional stability of nylon with the acoustic damping of TPU lining, reducing operational noise compared to single-material constructions while maintaining cell integrity under continuous long-term use in high-dependency environments.
- Dedicated Pillow Section for Head and Shoulder Stability - the static pillow section at the head of the mattress provides head and shoulder support independently of the alternating cell cycle, preventing movement of the head zone during cell inflation and deflation; this is particularly important in residents with cervical instability, dysphagia, or enteral feeding, where movement of the head zone during the alternating cycle could disrupt feeding or compromise airway positioning.
- Transport Cap and CPR Valve for Transfer and Emergency Safety - the transport cap retains mattress air pressure for up to 24 hours during inter-site transfer without pump connection, maintaining the therapeutic surface state throughout transit; the CPR valve allows immediate emergency deflation to a firm resuscitation surface in a cardiac arrest scenario; both features are standard on the Hampton II and must be tested and confirmed operational at each new deployment with test results recorded in the equipment log.
- Standard 900mm Width - Compatible with Full Harvest Pump Range - the Hampton II in 900mm width (2000 x 900 x 200mm) fits standard UK single bed frames and is compatible with the full Harvest Healthcare pump range, giving the widest SWL flexibility of any mattress in the range; a 1050mm wide variant is also available as NCL-HAMPHAMP1050 for residents requiring a wider sleeping surface; pump selection determines maximum SWL and must be documented before deployment per MHOR 1992 requirements.
Hampton II Active Mattress - 20 Nylon-TPU Cells - Standard 900mm Width - 2000x900x200mm
The Hampton II Active Mattress by Harvest Healthcare is a 20-cell alternating pressure replacement system for residents at very high risk of pressure ulceration or those with existing stage 4 pressure injuries. Nylon-TPU cell construction provides quiet, durable continuous pressure redistribution at 2000 x 900 x 200mm. The static pillow section supports head and shoulder stability independent of the alternating cycle. Transport cap retains air for 24 hours for safe inter-site transfer; CPR valve provides emergency deflation. Compatible with the full Harvest pump range. A 1050mm wide variant is available as NCL-HAMPHAMP1050.

Regulatory Compliance
The Hampton II Active Mattress is a Class IIa active medical device under Medical Devices Regulation 2017/745. Clinical selection requires validated pressure risk assessment per NICE CG179 confirming very high-risk status. SWL is pump-dependent and must be verified against the resident's documented weight before deployment under MHOR 1992 requirements. The Crib 5 welded PU cover meets BS 5852 institutional fire safety standards. Transport cap and CPR valve functionality must be confirmed at each deployment and documented in the equipment maintenance record. Equipment register records and MDR conformity documentation must be maintained for CQC Regulation 12 compliance.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does nylon-TPU cell construction differ from pure TPU or pure PU, and does it affect clinical performance?
Pure TPU cells are flexible and quiet but can stretch over time under sustained load, which may affect the firmness and shape of the cell during the inflation phase. Pure PU cells are more dimensionally stable but may generate slightly more noise during inflation and deflation. Nylon-TPU construction uses a nylon outer layer for dimensional stability and resistance to stretching, with a TPU inner lining that provides the low-permeability air-retention required for consistent cell pressure maintenance. The combination gives the Hampton II dimensional stability for consistent inflation profiles across the alternating cycle, while the TPU lining maintains quiet operation suitable for continuous use in overnight care settings. The clinical performance in terms of pressure redistribution is determined by the alternating cycle mechanics rather than the cell material alone; the cell material affects longevity, noise, and maintenance frequency rather than the peak pressure redistribution achieved.
When should the 900mm Hampton II be selected over the 1050mm variant, and can both use the same pump?
The 900mm Hampton II (NCL-HAMHAMP005) fits standard UK single bed frames and is the correct selection for residents in standard single beds in care home, hospital, and community settings. The 1050mm Hampton II (NCL-HAMPHAMP1050) is wider and is appropriate for residents who require additional lateral space on the mattress for comfort, for those who sleep in positions that use the full mattress width, or for residents where the 900mm width creates lateral edge pressure from body habitus. Both variants use the same 20-cell nylon-TPU alternating system and are compatible with the same full Harvest pump range, so the pump selection process and SWL documentation are identical regardless of which width is chosen. The bed frame width must be confirmed before ordering to confirm the 900mm or 1050mm variant is the correct fit for the specific frame in use.
