Key Features

Built to the spec
clinicians trust.

01

Clinically used in pressure injury prevention protocols across all stages of risk.

03

Contoured Comfort

Contour, coccyx cut-out, and dual-valve designs match anatomy and use case.

04

HCPCS Eligible

Many cushions qualify under Medicare HCPCS E2601–E2625 with proper documentation.

Clinical Use / Cushions & Seating

How clinicians
use this product.

Pressure-redistributing cushions for wheelchairs, recliners, and seated care — from high-specification ROHO air cells to gel, foam, and hybrid seating surfaces.

Indications

Clinical use cases.

  • Pressure injury prevention in wheelchair users
  • Tissue protection for patients at risk of Stage I–IV pressure injuries
  • Post-operative positioning and comfort
  • Long-term wheelchair seating in SCI, paraplegia, and geriatric populations
  • Bariatric seating with specialized weight capacities

Application Technique

Step by step.

01

/ 05

Assess skin and risk.

Use a validated tool (Braden, Norton) to assess pressure injury risk. Inspect bony prominences before and after seated time.

02

/ 05

Select the right profile.

Match cushion to risk level: standard foam for low risk, gel-hybrid for moderate, air cell (ROHO) for high risk or active wounds.

03

/ 05

Fit to the chair.

Cushion must match the seat pan dimensions. An oversized or undersized cushion reduces pressure redistribution.

04

/ 05

Inflate or position correctly.

For air-cell cushions, check inflation with the hand-check method: 1 inch of clearance under the ischial tuberosities.

05

/ 05

Reposition and inspect.

Patients should reposition every 15–30 minutes when seated. Inspect skin at each transfer.

Contraindications & Cautions

When not to use.

  • Do not use damaged or deflated air cushions for patients at risk of pressure injury
  • Foam cushions compress over time and must be replaced per manufacturer schedule
  • Cushion alone is not sufficient for high-risk patients without repositioning

FAQ / Cushions & Seating

Frequently asked.

Answers to the questions clinical buyers and care teams ask most about this product category.

What's the difference between ROHO and gel cushions?

ROHO cushions use individual air cells that redistribute pressure dynamically — the gold standard for high-risk patients and active pressure injuries. Gel cushions use a viscous gel layer over foam — easier maintenance and good for moderate risk. Both significantly reduce peak pressure compared to standard foam.

How do I know if a cushion fits my wheelchair?

Measure the wheelchair seat width and depth before ordering. The cushion should match the seat pan within 1 inch. A cushion that's too large folds at the edges; one too small allows contact with the seat frame.

Is this cushion covered by Medicare?

Many wheelchair cushions are covered under Medicare Part B with a qualifying diagnosis and prescription. HCPCS codes E2601–E2625 apply depending on the cushion type and skin protection features.

How often should I replace a cushion?

Foam cushions: 6–12 months. Gel cushions: 2–3 years with proper care. Air cell cushions: 3–5 years with inspection and maintenance. Replace immediately if you notice flattening, leaks, or skin irritation.
