Malem Bed Wetting Alarm Trainers (Dr Malem, UK)
The Malem Alarm and Toilet Trainers? have a small sensor attached by a long wire to a very small electronics package that also houses the alarm buzzer.
The electronic package is pinned to the patient’s night apparel high on the chest, near an ear.
The assembly is completed by a disposable pad in which the sensor is housed, this is put into the patients underpants.
The sensor will detect the very first sign of wetness and cause the multi frequency alarm to operate, waking the patient.
This method has proved to have trained approximately 90% of users not to wet the bed (medical papers available).
Two other models are available, a silent vibrating alarm so other sleepers are not disturbed, and a visual (light) alarm to alert nursing staff.
There are blank charts that can be filled in to monitor the time of day or night that the person tends to wet the bed which may give a good trend, thus saving much labour, sheets and stress to patient, staff and loved ones.

The Grant Dyna-Care
Anti-Decubitus Mattresses to Prevent Pressure Sores
Saves turning patients a boon to health carers
Very low cost. Made in USA
Long term patients whose body weight is continuously on a motionless surface causes pressure on millions of capillaries, veins and lymphatics.
This adds to the patients problems as body fluids stagnate and toxic cell waste irritate nerves, and ulcers and pressure sores develop.
The Grant Dyna-Care ‘Ultimo’ system keeps the body fluids moving by a system of alternating pressure in the mattress via its 21 uniform tubes.
These tubes inflate and deflate without vibration, giving the body proper support while promoting circulation.
The large number of these special thin vertical tubes eliminates the need for a pressure controller.
The near silent pump and gentle pressure changes ensure a good night sleep.
The USA manufactured ‘Grant’ system has a quiet pump for reliability and rugged design for long term quality use.
The pin prick resistant mattress is made from a super tough 11 gauge long lasting urethane/vinyl blend and its inflated size is 81cm x183cm.
The pump unit is just 19cm L x 9cm W x 7cm H and 1.1kg. Flaps are attached to each end of the air mattress which tuck in under the main bed mattress to ensure a secure fit.
This air mattress is easy to transport and keep clean.
The low cost pump unit is easily serviced or replaced.
