Clients who spend most of the day in a recliner carry their pressure risk in the chair, not the bed, and a chair that was bought for comfort rarely offers much redistribution. The Repose Contur is an inflatable overlay that brings pressure area care to a riser recliner without replacing it.
It uses the Repose air cell and smart valve system, inflated with the supplied pump, and covers the back, seat and leg sections as one piece so the client is supported through the whole recline. Adjustable straps hold it to the chair, so it can go onto a new chair or be retro fitted to one the client already owns.
It is suited to clients assessed anywhere from at risk to very high risk, and can be used in the treatment of pressure ulcers. The cover has a zip flap against fluid ingress and can be wiped down or machine washed.
