The Invacare Flo-Shape Cushion is a 103 mm-high pressure-relief cushion designed for individuals "At Risk" of developing pressure ulcers. While it is commonly paired with the Invacare Rea® wheelchair range, its versatile design makes it compatible with most standard wheelchairs and other seating systems. Using advanced moulding technology, the cushion features a uniquely contoured, three-dimensional surface that outperforms traditional cut foam. This innovative design redistributes pressure evenly, reducing peak stress on vulnerable areas and enhancing user comfort. The cushion’s anatomical contours provide focused support to the ischial tuberosities, helping to minimise forward sliding, which can lead to shear forces and friction. It also creates a stable base that promotes proper pelvic positioning and improved thigh alignment, making it particularly suited for individuals with limited sitting balance or neurological conditions. Blending comfort, stability, and effective pressure redistribution, the Invacare Flo-Shape Cushion delivers exceptional support for improved posture and enhanced safety during extended use.
