The LXA™ was created to provide skin protection for persons with epidermal thinning, due to muscle weakness in the gluteus maximus. The cubed design of the gel cells reduces the effects of shearing and improves airflow.
Clinical applications:
- Balanced distribution of weight and reduction of pressure points;
- Diminution of friction and shearing;
- Lesion prevention;
- Increased absorption of shock and vibrations;
- Diminution of moisture and wrinkling problems (pressure sores)
- Improved stability;
- Optimal air circulation;
- Diminishing the pressure on bony prominence (ischium and coccyx);
- Easy Maintenance
Pressure distribution
The high-performance urethane foam base of the LXA™ provides a better immersion and helps stabilize the pelvis, improving overall postural balance.
OPTIMIZED AIR-FLOW
The LXA™’s cubed polymer top layer improves air circulation in order to reduces heat and moisture build-up. The LXA™ surface also will provides greater skin protection, if sliding occurs.
Anti-slip surface
The LXA™ is the ideal positioning cushion to reduce pain and discomfort caused by sliding.
High-quality and stylish slip covers
Three types of covers are available with the Physipro™ cushions:
- Stretch cover – Made with a breathable fabric that promotes a good air flow, this cover can receive different positional components and helps eliminate the formation of surface tension.
- Anti-slip cover – Prevents forward movement of the pelvis and helps maintain a balanced posture.
- Waterproof cover – Helps with managing incontinence by protecting the cushion against fluids. Water-resistant and easy to wipe and clean.
Incontinence Inner Cover
Made of an anti-slip and waterproof fabric with a satin finish, this cover fits to the shape of the cushion and is equipped with a sturdy water-resistant zipper.
