Our pressure sore cushions are suitable for use in hospitals, care homes, and home care settings. They are easy to clean and maintain, and our team can provide guidance on how to use and care for them properly. Here are a few key things to keep in mind when shopping for a pressure cushion:
A pressure sore cushion works by distributing weight evenly across the cushion's surface, reducing pressure on bony areas of the body that are more prone to developing pressure ulcers. The cushion's design helps to improve blood flow and prevent tissue damage.
Pressure ulcers, also known as bed sores or pressure sores, are areas of damaged skin and tissue caused by prolonged pressure on bony areas of the body, such as the hips, heels, and back. They are a common issue for patients who spend long periods in bed or use a wheelchair.
Patients who are immobile or have limited mobility, such as those with spinal cord injuries, are at higher risk of developing pressure ulcers. Other factors that increase the risk of pressure ulcers include age, poor nutrition, and medical conditions that affect blood flow or sensation.
Choosing the right pressure cushion depends on the patient's individual needs, level of mobility, and the type of hospital bed or chair they use. Our team at Shelden Healthcare can help you select the right cushion and provide guidance on how to use and care for it properly, don’t hesitate to contact us for more information.
