Positioning cushions allow the repositioning of patients quickly and easily in different postures in order to relieve pressure applied on areas at risk of pressure ulcers.  This in turn means the patient is much more comfortable and has an improved quality of life.
Pressure ulcers in knees and malleolus areas are very frequent in patients with muscle and tendon retractions of lower limbs. Experts recommend abduction of lower limbs to relieve pressure in knees, condyles and malleolus areas as well as in sacrum, ischions and heels areas.
