35226 - Pressure alleviation pad, air-filled
A highly elastic, moisture permeable device designed to prevent and treat pressure ulcers, e.g. bed sores or decubitus ulcers, occurring on the parts of the patient's body which are prone to this. It can equally be used as an underlay for the patient when he/she is undergoing a long treatment where the body is immobilized, or for disabled, infirm persons who are confined to sitting/lying positions. It is shaped as a mattress (full body length or shorter versions), or a cushion, or shaped to a body part, filled with air and is intended to provide a low friction surface that distributes an equal pressure between the patient and contact surfaces over a larger surface area so there is less pressure on the pressure points.
