Roho Harmony Pressure Relief Cushion
It's vital that effective pressure relief can be provided to patients who need it, whether they're in a seat or in a wheelchair. The Roho Harmony Pressure Relief Cushion enhances independence and freedom without adding unnecessary weight to a wheelchair for users at a low to moderate risk of pressure damage.
It's a lightweight and stable cushioning solution suitable for the active user, combining a lightweight and comfortable Roho Air Flotation cushion with a pre-contoured foam base. Roho cushions are widely used within the NHS and care industry thanks to their excellent pressure relieving qualities.
Key Features of the Roho Harmony Cushion
The key features and benefits of the Roho Harmony Pressure Relief Cushion are:
- Air flotation technology reduces discomfort and aids pressure relief
- Pre-contoured foam base helps maintain stability
- Moisture-resistant cover for greater durability
- Lightweight design ideal for wheelchairs
- Easy to wash for greater hygiene maintenance
Dry Flotation Technology
The Roho Harmony Cushion works on the principle of dry flotation, allowing the cushion to track and move with the user to decrease shear and friction. Constant restoring forces provide flotation and constant pressure, and low surface tension allows immersion and envelopment, decreasing tissue deformation.
The cushion utilises neoprene that has been treated to reduce friction, and small individual cells move with the patient to reduce shearing and improve ease of movement. These features work together to provide a great level of pressure relief, helping to prevent pressure ulcers.
Comfortable and Stable
The Roho Harmony Cushion is built on an anatomically shaped foam platform that enhances the user’s stability and helps them maximise their functional potential. For greater comfort, a Roho Air Flotation Cushion is positioned over the foam base to provide a shape fitting interface, reducing discomfort through enhanced blood flow and achieving longer sitting times.
Great for Low Risk Patients
Providing a good level of pressure relief to users at low risk of pressure ulcers, the Roho Harmony Pressure Relief Cushion may be suitable in the following circumstances with appropriate nursing care and guidance:
- Patients who are at risk for skin breakdown
- Users who require comfort and support while seated
- Clients with partial or full sensation
- Users who have fair to good seated balance
The cushion is appropriate for individuals who have the ability to sit symmetrically and correct their own seating position, but are at risk from, or have a history of, skin breakdown. Please note that this list is for guidance only and does not constitute a medical opinion. Please consult your GP, consultant or physiotherapist to obtain a medical opinion as to which cushion is most suitable for your requirements before purchasing.
Lightweight Design
At a lean 1.5 pounds (0.7 kg), the Roho Harmony Pressure Relief Cushion adds minimal weight to a mobility solution. This makes it a fantastic wheelchair pressure relief solution.
Sizes of the Roho Harmony Pressure Relief Cushion
The Roho Harmony Pressure Relief Cushion is available in 8 different sizes to meet your needs. The sizes are measured across the width of the cushion from left to right, and then the depth from front to back.
