Ergonomic cushion in viscoelastic foam with memory effect and ergonomic insertion. Reduces pressure in the areas most at risk: sacrum and ischium. The insert is dimensioned in relation to the ischium. Even the frequent adoption of an incorrect posture has been taken into account, which this cushion effectively tries to prevent by blocking the ischium when it moves forwards.

The VISCOFLEX®+ cushion can be used when:

- 1st- A pressure ulcer is already present (stage I to III according to EPUAP).

The patient can change their sitting position or the pressure points are relieved by nursing care.

- 2º- There is a higher probability of very high risk according to the assessment scale (Braden, Norton, Waterlow, ...). The VISCOFLEX®+ cushion is indicated for patients: with a history of pressure ulcers in contact with the seating area, and/or with total or partial paralysis of the trunk or lower limbs, and/or with poor or absent sensitivity in the lower limbs, and/or with poor frontal stability, and/or with slight postural asymmetries and/or with vascular amputation, and/or with poor general condition.

The cushion can be used on different seat supports without adjustment.

MOULDED VISCOELASTIC FOAM WITH MEMORY EFFECT:

- Precise moulding of the body and increased body surface in contact with the cushion; Better distribution of pressures: reduction of transcutaneous pressures in risk areas and facilitation of blood circulation;

- Greater patient comfort and stability;

- Skin effect obtained by the moulding process: protection of the foam against external aggressions (tearing, crumbling);

- Very high density to avoid deformation and sagging effects.

ANATOMICAL SHAPE WITH RAISED LATERAL EDGES AND FRONT-REAR INCLINATION:

- Improves patient positioning, stability and comfort;

- Increases the contact surface and reduces pressures.

THE FIT: AN INNOVATIVE CONCEPT WITH ERGONOMIC FIT:

- Made of high density foam. It acts as the skeleton of the cushion to configure the weight bearing capacities in different areas;

- Allows optimal immersion of the bony protrusions (sacrum, ischium) in the material: this implies sufficient immersion of the risk zone, but also controlled and stabilised immersion before reaching the lower limit.

REDUCE LOAD IN RISK ZONES (Profile 1):

-Protected risk zones (sacrum / ischium), (including in cases of pelvic retroversion), to provide partial relief of bony protrusions through immersion.

ANTIAFUNDAMENT SYSTEM (Profile 2):

- Specifically positioned in relation to the ischium (B).

- Distributes pressure in the peripheral area of the buttocks, stabilising the dip of the pelvis and preventing it from reaching the lower area.

ISCHIUM LOCK (Profile 3):

- Locks the ischium, thus preventing it from sliding forwards.
