Cushions FAQs
What is a pressure relief cushion?
A pressure relief cushion is a specially designed seating surface that helps distribute body weight evenly to reduce pressure on vulnerable areas, such as the hips, tailbone, and thighs. These cushions are commonly used to prevent or manage pressure ulcers or sores in individuals who sit for extended periods.
Who should use a pressure relief cushion?
Pressure relief cushions are ideal for individuals who are immobile, have limited mobility, or are at risk of developing pressure sores. This includes wheelchair users, elderly patients, those recovering from surgery, and individuals with chronic conditions such as multiple sclerosis or spinal cord injuries.
What types of pressure relief cushions are available?
Common types include:
- Foam cushions – lightweight and suitable for low-med/high risk users.
- Gel-infused cushions – provide cooling comfort and better weight distribution, suitable for low-med/high risk users.
- Air cushions (alternating or static) – ideal for up to very high-risk users, offering dynamic support and continuous pressure redistribution.
- Hybrid cushions – combine foam or gel and air technologies for enhanced support. They are suitable for up to very high-risk users.
How do I choose the right cushion for pressure sore prevention?
Choosing the right cushion depends on the user’s risk level (low, medium, high or very high), mobility, weight, and daily usage. A healthcare professional can help assess individual needs. Generally:
- Foam: for low to medium risk
- Gel: for medium to high risk
- Alternating air or hybrid: for high to very high risk
How do I clean and maintain a pressure relief cushion?
Most cushions come with removable, wipe-clean covers that are anti-microbial and water-resistant. Follow the manufacturer's cleaning instructions and ensure regular checks for signs of damage or contamination. The air cells in our alternating cushions can also be cleaned easily by removing the wipe clean cover.
