Alternating Pressure Pad + Positioning Bed Pad
Alternating Pressure PadAn alternating pressure pad is a medical device that is commonly used to prevent and treat pressure ulcers (also known as bedsores) in patients who are bedridden or spend long periods of time sitting in a chair or wheelchair. The pad consists of multiple air cells that are alternately inflated and deflated in a cycle, which helps to redistribute pressure and improve blood flow to the affected areas.
Positioning Bed PadA positioning bed pad is a medical device designed to help patients maintain proper alignment and positioning while lying in bed. These pads are typically made of foam or gel materials and come in a variety of shapes and sizes to accommodate different body types and positions.
