Firm Wheelchair Cushion for Preventing Sliding

The NYOrtho APEX CORE Wedge Gel-Foam Cushion is designed to address the needs of patients who are inclined to slide forward. This innovative cushion combines a firm core foundation that eliminates hammocking with the APEX's superior design, which positions the gel-pod closer to the top of the cushion. This unique configuration provides a cooler interface between the patient and the wheelchair. The high-performance stretch cover further enhances the APEX design features by improving moisture evaporation.

The Wedge design of the cushion helps prevent and stop forward sliding, ensuring the patient remains in a stable and comfortable position. The firm CORE foundation, made of high-density beveled polyethylene, eliminates the hammock effect and provides a solid base.

The Innovative APEX Design focuses on cooling and reducing body interface pressure. The cushion features dual-density foam layers, with a soft top entry layer that promotes direct interface with the cooling gel-pod, and a higher-density base layer for support and pressure distribution. This top-design brings the gel-pod up close, allowing the user to experience superior comfort and stability.

The Breathable Stretch Removable Cover is made of high-performance, pressure-reducing fabric that promotes healing through active evaporation of moisture and cooling at the patient's pressure points. The cover is also water-resistant, providing additional protection.

The Aqueous Dual Gel-Pod is designed with dual chambers to prevent gel migration, ensuring consistent support and comfort. The aggressive non-slip bottom, combined with easy-to-attach quick-release straps, keeps the cushion firmly in place, even during active use.

In summary, the NYOrtho APEX CORE Wedge Gel-Foam Cushion is a comprehensive solution that addresses the needs of patients who are prone to forward sliding. Its innovative design, firm core foundation, cooling features, and secure fit work together to provide a comfortable and stable seating experience, promoting healing and improving overall patient well-being.
