11.12.3 Replacement Seat Cushion
If using the replacement seat cushion then remove
existing seat cushion. If this is not possible, then a
correctly sized overlay cushion is required.
Ensure that chair supports weight of seat cushion.
Place the seat cushion directly on the seat base.
Ensure that there are no protruding parts or sharp
objects on the chair to avoid damage to the seat
cushion.
Put seat cushion on seat of chair so that umbilical
points to the back
.
Push seat cushion back as far as it will go and lay the
air pipes out through the side of the chair. If this is not
possible then lay them along the side of the cushion
or over the chair arm.
Connect air pipe (see Connecting Mattress and SCU
- chapter 9. 3).
Put SCU on floor next to chair.
11.12.4 Overlay Cushion
Remove any existing loose additional cushions that do not form part of the chairs original seating area.
Ensure the chair supports the weight of the seat cushion and any arm rests are at a suitable height for the
patient.
Ensure that there are no protruding parts or sharp objects on the chair to avoid damage to the seat cushion.
Choose which position on the chair is best for the air pipes to be connected to the cushion.
Then place the cushion on the chair with
the picture that shows the chosen position
at the front. The selected picture is hidden
behind the patient´s knees when a patient
sits on the cushion. Cells inside the cushion
cover are parallel to the width of the cushion
from the front view.
If the standard air pipe that is provided to
connect the cushion to the SCU is not long
enough then additional extension air pipes can
be used to achieve the most convenient posi-
tioning of the SCU. (See figure showing parts
supplied with the standard overlay cushion).
