Description
The EquaGel General Cushion is one of the best cushions for wheelchairs according to skilled rehab facilities, long term care facilities and other healthcare facilities. The EquaGel General Cushion is 100% EquaGel and incorporates the two-stage gel configuration. Much of its popularity with skilled nursing facilities is its low profile (2” high) as well as it includes a ¾” pelvic contour to assist with positioning the user in their wheelchair. The EquaGel General Cushion for wheelchair is coded by Medicare for reimbursement as E2601/E2602. The EquaGel General Cushion for wheelchair will provide the user with extended comfort and assists in positioning. EquaGel Adjustable Protector Cushion is a dry-polymer gel, almost rubbery to the touch. It has unbelievable tensile and compression strength and incredible durability; but these are not what make EquaGel special. Its most amazing feature is the column buckling. Column buckling refers to the way EquaGel behaves under weight. Each wall of gel is capable of supporting only a light load. When that threshold is exceeded, the wall of gel buckles into the hollow area between walls and passes the weight to the surrounding walls for support. This “buckling and weight-passing” happens instantly and repeatedly until the maximum surface area of pressing weight is evenly supported by largely equalized pressure (hence our name, EquaPressure). The peak pressure points of the ischial tuberosities and the coccyx/sacrum buckle into the EquaGel feeling almost as if they are free-floating within the cushion while the thighs and buttock of the user are supported.
