This medical-grade cushion is engineered to provide comprehensive pressure redistribution, significantly reducing the risk of decubitus ulcers (pressure sores) by optimizing the patient's seated surface area. By providing additional support to the head, trunk, and lower extremities, the Extender ensures that patients remain in a stable, anatomically correct position, preventing slouching or lateral leaning that can lead to respiratory or skeletal complications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eConstructed for high-use institutional environments, the cushion features high-density foam encased in a soft, breathable \"Dri-Release\" fabric. This material is essential for maintaining skin integrity, as it wicks moisture away from the patient's body faster than standard medical vinyl or upholstery. The antimicrobial properties of the fabric further enhance clinical safety by inhibiting the growth of bacteria and reducing odors. The Extender Geri-Chair Cushion is an indispensable tool for nursing staff and facility managers looking to improve patient comfort while adhering to strict wound prevention and infection control protocols.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cb\u003eKey Benefits:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003ePressure Redistribution:\u003c\/b\u003e High-density foam contours to the patient’s body, effectively off-loading high-pressure areas to prevent skin breakdown.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eEnhanced Positioning:\u003c\/b\u003e Integrated side bolsters and extended length provide lateral and trunk stability for patients with diminished muscle tone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eDri-Release Technology:\u003c\/b\u003e Advanced moisture-wicking fabric maintains a dry microclimate against the skin, critical for preventing maceration.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eAntimicrobial Protection:\u003c\/b\u003e Built-in protection inhibits microbial growth, supporting institutional hygiene standards and infection control.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eUniversal Fit:\u003c\/b\u003e Designed to accommodate most standard geri-chairs and clinical recliners, ensuring versatile utility across various facility departments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eSecure Attachment:\u003c\/b\u003e Features a robust strap system to prevent the cushion from sliding, ensuring consistent positioning for at-risk patients.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cb\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/b\u003e High-density clinical foam with Dri-Release moisture-wicking cover\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eFabric Properties:\u003c\/b\u003e Antimicrobial, odor-resistant, and breathable\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eIndications:\u003c\/b\u003e Pressure sore prevention, patient positioning, and long-term seating comfort\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eCleaning:\u003c\/b\u003e Removable cover is machine washable; foam can be wiped with disinfectant\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eColor:\u003c\/b\u003e Neutral Gray\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eApplication:\u003c\/b\u003e Hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, and hospice care\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"RCAI","offers":[{"title":"Small","offer_id":48138914103540,"sku":"RCA-02EXT-S","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Medium\/Large","offer_id":48138914136308,"sku":"RCA-02EXT-M\/L","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"X-Large","offer_id":48138914169076,"sku":"RCA-02EXT-XL","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2304\/8155\/files\/Extender_Kit.jpg?v=1778225899","url":"https:\/\/rescue-supply.com\/products\/12-rcai-extender-geri-chair-cushion-pressure-redistribution-and-patient-positioning-support","provider":"Rescue Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
