Viscoflex Cushion Anatomical Cover 42x42x8cm 1ud is a specialized cushion designed for the prevention and treatment of pressure ulcers. It offers exceptional ergonomic support for people with reduced mobility. This medical device is made from viscoelastic materials that adapt to the user's anatomy, distributing pressure optimally.
The cushion is made of molded viscoelastic foam with a memory effect, allowing for a precise fit to the body and increasing the contact surface. This results in:
- Better pressure distribution, reducing high-pressure points in at-risk areas.
- Improvement of blood circulation.
Its anatomical shape features elevated side edges and a front-back tilt, which enhances the positioning and stability of the patient. Additionally, it has ventilation channels that promote air circulation, minimizing friction and the effects of maceration.
This model is indicated for patients who:
- Present pressure ulcers in stages I to II.
- Are at high risk according to assessment scales (Braden, Norton, Waterlow).
- Have a history of pressure ulcers in the sitting area.
- Suffer from total or partial paralysis.
- Exhibit poor sensitivity in the lower limbs.
- Have poor frontal stability or a generally deteriorated condition.
It is recommended for people weighing up to 100 kg, ensuring optimal support without deformation.
The hypoallergenic cover is breathable and suitable for cases of incontinence. Its waterproof material reduces the effect of maceration by allowing the skin to breathe, providing an effective barrier against moisture and maintaining the comfort of the user. It is advisable to consult a professional for its use.
