Bed Sore Prevention Positioning Wedge

Device Description

Bed Sore Prevention Positioning Wedge is an assistive technology device designed to support safe positioning and pressure relief for individuals who remain in bed for extended periods. It helps redistribute body weight and maintain proper positioning to prevent pressure injuries and improve comfort during rest or recovery.

This device can assist individuals who are bedridden, have limited mobility, are recovering from surgery, or require positioning support due to physical disabilities. It may benefit older adults, individuals with lower limb injuries, or pregnant individuals who need additional support for circulation and body alignment while lying down. It can also support caregivers by making repositioning easier and safer.

The positioner features a two-part wedge design that can be used together or separately to support different areas of the body, such as the back, hips, or legs. This versatility allows targeted pressure relief and positioning to reduce the risk of skin breakdown and discomfort. It is made from supportive foam to maintain shape and provide consistent elevation, and includes a waterproof outer cover that helps protect against spills and supports hygiene. The base incorporates an anti-slip design to keep the cushion securely in place during use.

The device measures approximately thirty five inches in length and is designed to support comfortable positioning in a variety of lying positions.
