Abstract
An inflatable patient transfer roller mattress is described for moving a patient from a first platform to a second platform. It includes a top sheet and a bottom sheet capable of being selectively sealed together, a set of parallel inflatable rollers and at least a pair of manifolds. Each roller has a pair of necked-down ends for introduction of an inflation gas, the rollers being formed by sealing selected areas of the top sheet and the bottom sheet together. The opposing, inflatable manifolds are for delivery of an inflation gas to each roller, and each manifold is disposed adjacent to and in gaseous contact with each necked-down end of the rollers, the manifolds being formed by sealing selected areas of the top sheet and the bottom sheet together.
