17. Legal Disclaimer
A.
Terms such as 'Medium Risk', 'High Risk' and 'Very High Risk' are a description of a person's risk
levels, these persons may be at danger of developing a pressure sore at the higher risk status
level. These risk levels are assessed by nurses and as there is a variability between nurse
measurements/observations. Descriptive risk levels should only be used as guideline for the risk
assessment methods being used.
B.
Comet uses these factors and terms based on the existing market research and internal research
to show the suitability and effectiveness of the pressure care systems provided. Internal and
external research is and will always be ongoing. These risk factors should not be taken as
prescriptive criteria.
C.
Comet support surfaces should be seen as an aid to care and DO NOT replace the need for good
nursing care and intervention. All Comet products must be used as part of an individualized care
plan which include proper nursing practices i.e. turning/re-positioning, and regular patient skin
assessments.
D.
Pressure relieving equipment alone will not prevent pressure ulcers. Pressure ulcers are multi
factorial and many external and internal factors cause them to develop. It is up to the
professional judgement of the nurse to assess the risk and develop a care plan which prescribes
suitable pressure reducing/relieving equipment and external care. Some pressure sores are
inevitable due to falls and periods of immobility these sores can develop hours after the injury, in
these instances a pressure ulcer can develop and Comet cannot guarantee the use of the
equipment alone will prevent pressure ulcer formation.
E.
The mattress usage guidance within this user guide in relation to clinical guidance, should always
be operated in accordance with best clinical practice outlined by the care giver.
