2 Product description
The wheelchair seat cushion is used as a decubitus prophylaxis. It provides optimal pressure
redistribution and reduces shear forces.
The seating surface consists of an anatomically shaped rest suspension foam base (see fig. 1,

cushion provides postural stability due to the anatomically shaped recesses for positioning the
thighs and the ischium bone (see fig. 1, items 3, 2). The air insert can be individually adapted by

The components of the wheelchair seat cushion have the following functions:
