More Information

Skil-Care (tm) Slide Guard Cushion Features :
  • Foam pommel controls sliding by eliminating posterior pelvic tilt
  • Water-based gel relieves pressure and cools the skin
  • High-density foam adds comfort and prevents bottoming out
  • Low-Shear fabric cover protects skin against friction and tearing.
  • Incontinent-proof vinyl cover prevents urine from entering cushion
  • Available as a level or wedge cushion
  • For additional forward slide control, choose the Wedge cushion
  • Safety strap secures cushion to chair or wheelchair

Water based gel is very effective in weight distribution (maximizing interface contact area), reduction of shearing forces and heat build-up.

The advantage of gels cooling effect is highlighted by studies that have determined that a one-degree buildup of body temperature increases the metabolic demand of the tissue by 10%, which in turn contributes to an increase in the susceptibility to develop pressure sores.
