A gel bladder sits inside a high density polyurethane foam base, so the cushion holds a stable sitting surface while the gel moves under the ischial tuberosities and spreads load across the buttocks and thighs. That combination is aimed at clients at low to medium risk of pressure injury who are seated for long stretches of the day.
The gel also draws heat away from the skin, which helps clients who overheat in a chair or whose skin stays damp. The outer cover is low friction to limit shear when a client repositions or slides, the base is non slip so the cushion stays put on a lounge chair or a dining chair, and there are handles for carers moving it between seats.
It is a straightforward daily cushion for a client who is seated for most of the day and whose skin needs watching.
