A therapeutic support device includes a bladder having one or more independently inflatable compartments, each including a plurality of inflatable cells. When inflated, each inflatable cell forms a contact node that may support a user or another object disposed thereon. The inflatable compartments can be alternately inflated and deflated such that contact pressure can be applied to and relieved from corresponding portions of the user's body in an alternating manner.

Support apparatus, system and method

A therapeutic device that reduces localized subcutaneous pressure while allowing capillary flow in a medical setting is disclosed. The therapeutic device comprises one or more rows of first pressure-focusing points, one or more rows of second pressure-focusing points disposed between and/or adjacent to the one or more rows of first pressure-focusing points in an alternating arrangement, and at least one inflatable bladder that is configured to place at least one row of the one or more rows of first pressure-focusing points and the one or more rows of second pressure-focusing points in contact with an area on a patient's body when the bladder is inflated and to remove the at least one row of the one or more rows of first pressure-focusing points and the one or more rows of second pressure-focusing points from contact with the area on the patient's body when the bladder is deflated such that pressure can be applied to the area on the patient's body with the one or more rows of first pressure-focusing points and the one or more rows of second pressure-focusing points in an alternating manner.
