STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: A quasi-experiment was conducted in which a control group of 40 babies admitted to the NICU over a 7-month period were placed on SFMs and an experimental group of 40 babies admitted in the next 7 months were placed on VPMs. Data were collected in 72 hours immediately following infant placement on the mattresses.RESULTS: There were no differences between groups based on gender, gestational age, and birthweight. Babies in the SFM group were an average of 15 hours older when placed on the mattress and had lower Day 1 acuity. There were no differences between groups on nurses' perceptions of infant sleep/restfulness, nurses' assessment of infant pain, parents' perceptions of comfort/crying, and infant vital signs. Weight loss for babies in the VPM group was more than twice that of infants on the SFM; however, the loss was clinically within normal limits. Vital signs of babies in both groups were largely within normal ranges and perceptions of sleep/restfulness and comfort/crying levels were positive.
CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: Both mattresses seem to be effective for babies in the NICU. More data are needed on the potential relationships between the VPM mattress and neonatal weight loss.PMID: 25333803 DOI: 10.1097/NMC.0000000000000078 [PubMed - indexed for MEDLINE] Publication TypesResearch Support, Non-U.S. Gov'tMeSH TermsBedding and Linens/standards*CryingHumansInfant Welfare/trends*Infant, NewbornIntensive Care Units, Neonatal/standards*Nurses/psychology*Sleep*Full Text SourcesLippincott Williams & WilkinsOvid Technologies, Inc.

If you've stayed in a fine hotel and slept on a Serta Pillow Top, chances are it was this one. The Sapphire Suite has a greater quantity of all of the features found in the entry level and mid-range models to produce a deeper, more substantial feel.
At a Comfort Scale rating of 5, the Sapphire Suite isn’t extremely firm or soft. This is a big plus in my opinion because its neutral comfort level is designed to work well whether you sleep on your back, side, or stomach. Like the other models in the hotel line, the Sapphire Suite Pillow Top takes a no nonsense approach to comfort. It doesn't use any of the premium comfort materials like memory foam or latex, but instead uses tested and proven comfort materials that have been used for a very long time. Comfort highlights of this mattress include Temperature Control Pillo-Fill Fiber to help regulate body temperature, and a ZoneActive 5-Zone Foam Topper for more support and pressure relief where you need it most. The High Profile Continuous Support System contains a top of the line coil count and is well known throughout the mattress industry for its ability to provide solid, long lasting support. The Foam Encased Edge Support is among the best used in bedding today and creates a uniform feel from edge to edge.
Another nice feature that some people will find attractive is the Sapphire Suite's double-sided design. This means that you can not only rotate the mattress from head to toe, but also flip it whenever necessary.Overall, the Sapphire Suite is an outstanding mattress for the money. The comfort layers, coil system, and edge support provide you everything you need, and its double-sided design allows you to flip the mattress at will.Pillow Top 5Quilt - Top of Mattress Temperature Control Pillo-Fill Fiber 1 1/2" Serta PillowSoft Foam Comfort - Padding Layers ZoneActive 5-Zone Foam Topper Smooth Top Inner Panel 1" Serta PillowSoft Foam Correct Back Support System Coil System: High Profile Continuous Support SystemCoil Gauge: 14.75Foam Encased Edge SupportBox Spring - Foundation Double Beam design How to pick your Box Spring - FoundationRegular Box Spring: 9"Low Profile Box Spring: 6"Twin 480Full 660Queen 800King 992Cal King 992Mattress Height: 14.5"Twin Full Queen King Cal King Warranty Non-prorated 10 year warranty against manufacturer's defects USA

/adjustable-frame-mattress.html by Jamie B 9/25/2014 This particular mattress is the mattress you will find in most 5 star hotels across America. /serta-hotel-silver-suite-pillow-top.html by Jamie B 4/28/2014 I recommend foam mattresses. Foam mattresses are better for people who are over 250 lbs because they are more resilient than typical innerspring units. /memory-foam-mattress.html by Jamie B 3/18/2014 /spring-air-hotel-grand-estate.html by Jamie B 9/17/2013 Serta Perfect Sleeper Sapphire Suite Double Sided Pillowtop Mattress I would recommend this item to a friend. This is a wonderful bed! My husband loves it as well! Very comfortable on your back, side or stomach. I have had Serta mattresses for the past 3 I have owned and they ladt. I had always bought firm but Tracey who chatted with me helped me to choose the best bed for us! Thanks so much as we are very happy! I have been a nurse over 30 years and have various issues with pain. This mattress is totally comfortable.
