Two Compartments for Comfort and Stability
This ultra-lightweight, easy to use and comfortable pressure relief cushion is designed to provide as much stability to the user as possible with a two compartment layout. This design limits the patient sliding forward in their chair, providing a versatile and stable sitting position to greatly increase comfort. This makes it perfect for those at risk of developing pressure sores or ulcers.
Automatically Adjusting Valve
The Vicair Liberty Pressure Relief Cushion has an innovative design which has resulted in a comfortable and easy to use seating solution. The secret behind this design is the fact that the valve controlling the individual adjustment of the cushion is fully automatic.
This means that, unlike many other pressure relief cushions, opening and closing the valve isn't needed. The cushion will automatically adapt to the user's body shape and weight, allowing the Vicair Liberty to be ready for use immediately without any hassle.
Unique Air-Filled SoftCells
Vicair cushions are designed with a unique and innovative pressure relief system, consisting of hundreds of air-filled SoftCells. These small, pyramid-shaped cells are arranged in strategically placed compartments, allowing for bespoke support and relief. Flexible and fabric-coated, these cells have a low friction level, allowing them to move with the patient to produce a significant reduction in shear forces while conforming to body contours.
Completely Watertight
This cushion is made of waterproof material and is completely watertight. This makes it a highly hygienic option for incontinent users, as the cushion is easy to clean and disinfect. Use with the incontinence cover for a complete incontinence and pressure relief solution.
