Skin IQ 365
Managing microclimate: The critical link to skin integrity
An effective and intuitive solution for the prevention and management of pressure injuries.
Skin IQ® 365 is a reusable, powered coverlet for use in combination with a pressure redistribution surface to help prevent pressure injuries. Skin IQ uses Negative Airflow Technology® (NAT) to continually draw away excess moisture and help to control temperature at the skin/surface interface (microclimate).Microclimate refers to the conditions of moisture and temperature at the point(s) of skin/surface interface¹, and is a key factor for patients at risk of skin maceration and breakdown. Excess moisture and/or temperature can increase skin sensitivity to the damaging effects of pressure, shear, and friction².

Arjo's Skin IQ® Microclimate Manager (MCM) is a fluid resistant, vapor permeable, single patient use mattress cover for use with a pressure redistribution surface to help prevent and treat Stage I-IV pressure injuries. Powered by Negative Airflow Technology (NAT), Skin IQ MCM continually draws away excess moisture from the skin/surface interface and helps control skin temperature.
Skin IQ 365 is a simple and sophisticated solution with proven performance for managing skin microclimate.• Waterproof, vapour permeable top layer offers a bacterial and viral barrier³.
• Negative Airflow Technology (NAT) continually draws excess moisture away from the skin / mattress interface. Bench studies show that Skin IQ removes 3.8 times more moisture at the skin/mattress interface than the same mattress without Skin IQ⁴.
• Bench studies show that Skin IQ reduces staphylococcus aureus growth by 3.1 logs over a 24 hour period. A percentage reduction of greater than 99.9%*⁵.
• Bench studies show that Skin IQ significantly reduces odour at the skin/surface interface when compared to the same surface without airflow⁶.
• Designed for compatibility with most support surfaces on the market without compromising the pressure redistribution performance of the support surface⁷.
• Breathability: Skin IQ provides a moisture vapour transfer rate (MVTR) of 171g/m2/hr⁸.
• Top layer material helps reduce shear and friction⁹.
• Quick, intuitive setup and maintenance.
• Low profile design.
