Product description
The Invacare® Propad® Revolve
V
/Revolve
Si
cushion is a
multi-layered, planar cushion for static and wheelchair
seating. Its outer layer consists of high resilient, moulded
foam which provides immersion and pressure redistribution.
Ultra-Fresh™ treatment of the foam ensures lasting freshness
and longer life by providing enhanced antimicrobrial
protection and odour reduction. The Propad® Revolve
V
has an inner visco-elastic foam layer, allowing for targeted
immersion and increased protection in areas with vulnerable
bony prominences. The Propad® Revolve
Si
contains a welded
fluid sac, divided into four sections, that provides immersion
and envelops areas at highest risk for skin breakdown.
The welded sections in the fluid sac prevent unwanted
migration of the fluid. The water-resistant cover provides
a vapour-permeable surface, to ensure patient comfort
and maximise the effectiveness of the foam. The cover
fabric provides sufficient grip to keep the cushion in place
once positioned in the seating system. The Invacare®
Propad® Revolve
V
/Revolve
Si
cushion provides high level skin
protection, support, and comfort for "High Risk" users.

Usage
Safety information
WARNING!
Invacare® advise that the patient is assessed by a
trained health care professional. This is to ensure
the correct size and seating requirements are
achieved for the best pressure and postural care
and that the individuals needs are met.
WARNING!
It is very important for the patient to reposition
themselves, or to be repositioned, on a regular
basis. This relieves pressure which helps prevent
both tissue compression and potential skin
breakdown. This must be based on the clinical
judgement of a qualified healthcare professional.
– Always consult a qualified health care
professional before using the product.
– Monitor the patient frequently.
WARNING!
Risk of developing pressure ulcers
The zipper pull can cause pressure ulcers when
permanently pressing against the underside of your
thighs.
– Always place the cushion onto the seat with the
zipper pull to the rear.
IMPORTANT!
In domestic settings common causes of damage
include cigarette burns and the claws of pets
that puncture covers, allowing fluid ingress and
staining.
