NYOrtho APEX Wheelchair Cushion High Density Cooling Gel-Foam Stop Forward Sliding Non Slip Water Resistant Prevent Pressure Injuries

RECOMMENDED USE:

Patients at risk for pressure ulcers and forward sliding.

Description

The NYOrtho APEX™ No-Slide Gel-Foam Cushion features an innovative design that helps to reduce forward sliding with an aggressive non-slip fabric. APEX design chambers the dual gel-pod closer to the top of the cushion, providing a cooler interface between the patient and wheelchair. A high-performance stretch cover improves moisture evaporation, enhancing APEX™ design features.

Features

• Non-slip landing pad helps to maintain correct position, reduce forward sliding and prevent falls.
• Innovative APEX design cools and reduces body interface pressure.
• Dual density foam layers provide a soft top entry layer, promoting direct interface with cooling gel-pod and a higher density base layer for support and pressure distribution.
• Chambered dual gel-pod reduces gel migration and dissipates metabolic heat, continuously maintaining a cool interface between the body and cushion.
• High performance pressure reducing fabric promotes healing via active evaporation of moisture and cooling at patient pressure points. Antimicrobial, water-resistant and mildew-resistant.
• Aggressive non-slip bottom with easy to attach quick-release straps keep cushion in place.
