Description
Lower limbs positioning cushion P-SS-33 is a modern solution in anti-bedsore prophylaxis. Its modular structure provides support and helps in positioning the limbs in bed, in a supine, reclining and sitting position. The cushion has connected segments filled with high-quality granules. As a result it can be easily and quickly adjusted to the user’s body, depending on the needs. Using the cushion can successfully relieve the heel area, secure the feet, e.g. against the contact with the bed frame, separate the legs to prevent excessive pressure on the inside of the legs or to prevent their crossing.

AirMesh™
Aerating-massaging fabric used in areas with direct body contact. Increases comfort and significantly reduces the risk of bedsores.
Cotton bag
There are special cotton bags inside of most of the STABILObed® cushions. They are filled with granules which perfectly adapt to the user’s anatomy. The bag is made of cotton fabric which is certified by OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 and the granules have obtained the PZH certificate. Thanks to a special pocket closed with the use of Velcro you can easily put the proper amount of the granules depending on the individual needs. If, during prolonged use, your STABILObed® cushion loses its properties, there is no need to purchase a new cushion but only replace the cotton bag with granules.

Maintenance
PureMed™ meets all the essential requirements of the medical products of different kinds, according to the Regulation of the Ministers of Health on 3 November 2004 and the requirements contained in Annex I to Council Directive 93/42/EEC of 14 June 1993 concerning medical devices , deployed by the law of 30 April 2004 of Medical Devices (OJ L 93 of 2004., pos. 896). It is a flexible fabric which is safe for people. It is antibacterial, waterproof, vapour permeable and easy to disinfect.PureMed™ should be cleaned according to the laundry guide. Coated materials should be cleaned with the use of neutral pH soap solution (about 7) applied with a soft sponge or a damp cloth. Rub gently and wipe dry to remove the rest of the detergent. In order to keep the original colour and shine level, the procedure should be repeated every month.
Stains should come out if you use 25% solution of ethanol. Rub gently and wipe dry to remove the rest of the detergent.
Please, bear in mind that some stains might not be completely removed from the cleaned surface. It depends on several factors like active dyers permanently migrating to the material surface, the material composition and finish, or chemical composition of dirt as well as the time the soiling has remained on the material surface.
You should pay particular attention to the generally available domestic cleansers whose components might react with the soiling and cause an effect contrary to what was originally intended.
Remember that PureMed™ should never be cleaned with domestic cleansers and cleaning agents that are generally recommended for ‘eco-leather’.
