NY Ortho APEX Coccyx Wheelchair High Density Gel-Foam Cushion

Key Features

• With dual density foam layers and chambered dual gel-pod
• Innovative APEX design
• Non-slip bottom with easy to attach quick-release straps

The NYOrtho APEX™ Coccyx Gel-Foam Cushion, designed to remove pressure from the coccyx, features an innovative design that chambers the dual gel-pod closer to the top of the cushion providing a cooler interface between the patient and wheelchair. A high-performance, stretch cover improves moisture evaporation, enhancing APEX™ design features.

Highlights

• Designed to off load tissue under the coccyx thereby eliminating pressure under the coccyx.
• Innovative APEX design, cools and reduces body interface pressure.
• Dual density foam layers provides a soft top entry layer promoting direct interface with cooling gel-pod and a higher density base layer for support and pressure distribution.
• Chambered dual gel-pod reduces gel migration and dissipates metabolic heat, continuously maintaining a cool interface between the body and cushion.
• High performance pressure reducing fabric promotes healing via active evaporation of moisture and cooling at patient pressure points. Antimicrobial, water-resistant and mildew-resistant.
• Aggressive non-slip bottom with easy to attach quick-release straps keep cushion in place.
• Meets CA 117-2013 standards.

Recommended Use
