Long term care professionals find the EquaGel® Adjustable Protector Cushion as superior in performance and durability to adjustable air cushions. The EquaGel® Adjustable Protector Cushion is 100% EquaGel® configured in two-stages.
This cushion has a 2% pelvic contour to assist in positioning and/or stabilizing the wheelchair user. The depth of the pelvic contour can be adjusted. Wound care nurses, and other professionals in long-term care facilities like the ability to adjust the contour and not have to continually monitor it as is the case with most air cushions. Nursing facilities and other long term care facilities endorse the EquaGel Adjustable Protector Cushion for preventing pressure ulcers, as well as wound treatment assistance that is not provided by any other cushioning technology.
The EquaGel® Adjustable Protector Cushion carries a Medicare reimbursement code of E2622/E2623 – for preventing pressure ulcers and to aid in wound healing.
The EquaGel® Adjustable Cushion is the ultimate cushioning solution for wound care.
