Description
The long lower limb separator K-SS-31 protects the user from the adduction contractures of the hip joints and decreases the risk of bedsores that can appear on the medial side of the lower limbs. It helps to maintain the correct supine position by controlling the legs position, preventing them from crossing. The longer shape of the separator gives a much larger contact surface between the body and the cushion, which guarantees much better pressure distribution. The thermo-active, soft VISmemo™ memory foam used in the cushion provides additional comfort of use and anti-bedsore prophylaxis. The foam helps to reduce the risk of pressure injuries or pressure ulcers in particularly sensitive areas such as ankles or the inside of knee joints. The long lower limb separator K-SS-31 is a recommended solution for people staying in the supine or side position for a long time (e.g. bedridden people or people after lower limb surgery especially during the recovery period).
