Description
The elevation arm wedge stabilizes the arm in the slightly raised position, which allows for reduction of the swelling within the distal parts of the limb. It is equipped with the original VISmemo™ memory foam which reduces the pressure and therefore protects the user against the bedsores in the elbow and forearm areas. The wedge is especially recommended to women after the mastectomy or other procedures where the axillary lymph nodes were excised. The wedge is available in one universal size.
Available version with attachment system to use with the modular mattress.

Filling
PureMed™
Antibacterial fabric safe for people, easy to disinfect, and suitable for multiple users in hospitals or rehabilitation centers. Contains Silver Zeolite components and complies with REACH regulation. Light, soft and easy to shape.
AirMesh™
AirMesh is a special aerating-massaging fabric used in the places, which have a directis a special aerating-massaging fabric used in the places, which have a directcontact with the user’s body. As a result, the comfort of use has significantly increased, andat the same time the risk of bedsores has considerably decreased.
VISmemo™
It is a memory foam which adjusts its shape to the shape of the user’s body under pressure. Then, it becomes even softer due to the temperature of the user’s body. The VISmemo™ foam is the most active in the areas with the greatest bedsores risk. As a result, it is the highest standard in the anti-bedsore prophylaxis.
Off-loading foam
It is a rigid technical foam, created during the recycling process. The structure of this foam is closed which means that it goes back to its initial shape even after long-term lying of the user.
AntySlip™
A special non-slip fabric which prevents the cushions and pillows from moving on the mattress.
VelcroFit™
The STABILObed® elements are equipped with a set of Velcro which allows to position the elements on the mattress covered with a self-adhesive sheet as well as combine selected elements in various configurations.

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’.
