Invacare Propad Original Cushion

Want to know more?

The Invacare Propad Original designed for comfort, support and pressure reduction for people at high risk of developing pressure ulcers. The cushion is made from a layer of castellated foam where each castellation delivers enhanced support and pressure area care to the user. The “keyhole” cut at the base of each castellation ensures good air circulation, reducing potential for skin maceration and this cushion offers improved stability and postural support; castellations reduce shear and friction forces on tissue. Supplied with a wipe-clean, breathable, polyurethane cover, the Propad Original Cushion is durable, comfortable and designed to minimise friction and the shear forces that might otherwise exacerbate pressure related injuries. This deep cushion is supportive and grooved to distribute weight effectively whilst also maximises air flow and optimum temperature control for all-round, pressure relief and comfort.
