Intended Use
The ROHO ® Single Compartment Cushion with Sensor Ready ™ Technology (Sensor Ready
Cushion) is an adjustable, air-filled, cellular-design, wheelchair support surface that
utilizes DRY FLOATATION

seated shape to provide skin/soft tissue protection and an environment to facilitate
wound healing. There is no weight limit, yet the cushion must be properly sized to the
individual. Cushion models include:

positioning and mobility: 1) to determine whether the cushion is appropriate for the
individual; and 2) to determine whether a solid seat platform is recommended if using
the cushion on a sling-seat wheelchair.

of the individual’s medical and therapeutic needs and overall condition.
Important Safety Information
Warnings
• Skin/soft tissue breakdown can occur due to a number of factors, which vary by
individual. Check skin frequently, at least once a day. Redness, bruising, or darker
areas (when compared to normal skin) may indicate the beginning of soft tissue
breakdown and may need to be addressed. If there is any discoloration to skin/soft
tissue, STOP USE immediately. If the discoloration does not disappear within
30 minutes after disuse, immediately consult a healthcare professional.
• The cushion and the cover MUST be compatible sizes and MUST be used as directed
in this manual. IF THEY ARE NOT: 1) The benefits provided by the cushion may be
reduced or eliminated, increasing the risk to skin or to other soft tissue, and 2) the
individual may become unstable and vulnerable to falling.
• If you are unable to perform any tasks described in this manual, seek assistance.
