LET THEM HEAL WITHOUT THE PRESSURE
Dolphin Mattress Rental & Sales in the USA
A Dolphin is a medical fluid immersion (FIS) mattress: the surface reads the patient and floats them, so pressure comes off the skin. Heal pressure ulcers faster, ease every repositioning, and give caregivers one less thing to manage — shipped nationwide, to buy or rent.
Takes 60 seconds. No obligation, no pressure.

What is fluid immersion simulation?
Fluid immersion simulation — FIS — is what the Dolphin mattress system does instead of inflating and deflating on a timer. A fluid immersion mattress reads the person lying on it: their contour, their weight, and how that weight is spread across the surface. It then holds them in a near-buoyant state, the way water supports a body, and re-reads them every 11 seconds as they move.
The point of all of it is pressure. Skin breaks down where pressure sits on it too long without relief — which is why turning schedules exist, and why they’re hard to keep to. A Dolphin FIS surface takes that pressure off continuously, without anyone setting anything.
The Dolphin beds mattress system is used on pressure ulcers, grafts and skin flaps, in hospitals, skilled nursing, inpatient rehab and at home. It’s the same technology in all three surfaces — full-size mattress, pediatric, and wheelchair cushion.
Three steps. No training. No settings to learn.
Plug in the Dolphin and turn it on before the patient is placed. That’s the whole setup. No calibration, no caregiver certification, no manual.
The system measures body contour, weight, and surface area on its own, and builds an immersion profile unique to that person.
As the patient shifts through the night, the surface re-reads and re-adjusts continuously — holding pressure under 32 mmHg across the body without anyone touching it.
Your team goes back to caring for the patient instead of adjusting the bed.
One technology. Three surfaces. Sized to the patient you’re caring for.
Standard Dolphin Mattress
Fits standard, Med/Surg, ICU, and bariatric bed frames in multiple sizes. Weighs just 10 lbs, so one person can move it. The 42″ ultra-wide option reduces fall risk compared with a standard 35″ bed.
Pediatric Immersion Advanced Therapy Surfaces
Crib and pediatric sizes, with the same fluid immersion technology scaled down for your smallest patients.
Wheelchair Cushions
Protects skin during long periods of sitting — where pressure injuries most often start. Runs up to 12 hours on internal battery.
Every Dolphin surface treats the same root problem: shear force and sustained pressure that a static mattress can’t relieve. By holding the patient in a near-buoyant state, blood flow is maintained and tissue deformation is minimised — which is why the technology is used on pressure ulcers, grafts, and skin flaps.
Our store carries Dolphin mattresses, pediatric immersion advanced therapy surfaces, and wheelchair cushions. No matter what your patients’ needs are, you’ll find a solution at the Dolphin Store.
Buy it, or rent it month to month. Whichever fits your budget.
You shouldn’t have to make a capital purchase to find out whether this works for your patient. Rentals ship nationwide and can convert to a purchase later. Facilities buying multiple units get volume pricing. Tell us the patient and the setting, and we’ll send both numbers so you can compare.

How 64,000 patients a year benefit from Dolphin mattresses
Pressure comes off, and stays off
The surface re-reads the patient every 11 seconds, so relief doesn’t depend on anyone remembering to reposition.
Comfort that holds through the night
Soft tissue strain is relieved as the surface adjusts, so the patient settles instead of being shifted around.
Care doesn’t stop at the door
Ten pounds, with an internal battery, so relief carries on through a transfer or transport.
You don’t have to buy it to try it
Fits the frames you already own, in the sizes you already use, and rents by the month.
How Does the Technology Work?
Utilizing complex and technical algorithms and a small microprocessor, a Dolphin mattress adjusts the surfaces and optimizes them for each individual patient’s anatomical features. The microprocessor calculates the settings the mattress needs to simulate the “floating” sensation for patients. As patients reposition, the system will continually adjust so they stay comfortable.
Testimonials
I’ve been amazed by the Dolphin mattress. Its smart technology, using algorithms and a microprocessor, customizes my sleeping surface to my body’s specific needs, offering an incredible ‘floating’ sensation. It adjusts in real-time as I move, ensuring maximum comfort throughout the night. This mattress isn’t just a place to sleep; it’s a personalized recovery system that understands and adapts to me. It’s transformed my sleep and recovery experience.
The Dolphin mattress system has been a game-changer for my recovery, offering personalized comfort and superior treatment for pressure ulcers and wounds. Its unique immersion technology not only relieved pressure but also significantly improved my blood flow, accelerating healing. This mattress is not just about comfort; it’s a therapeutic tool that genuinely aids in recovery. Highly recommended for anyone facing similar health issues.
I’ve witnessed firsthand the transformative impact of the Dolphin FIS system on caregiving. The simplicity of just turning on the system before placing a patient on the mattress has revolutionized how care is provided. There’s no need for extensive training, which means I can direct more attention and time towards the comprehensive care of my patients, rather than adjusting their bedding. This ease of use not only enhances patient comfort quickly but also allows me to focus on their overall well-being. The Dolphin mattress is a game-changer in patient care, making comfort and care more efficient and effective.
