Treat-Eezi Community Pressure Relief Bed Sore Pad
The Treat-Eezi Community Pressure Relief Bed Sore Pad is a completely non-electric pressure relief bed overlay pad made from polyester fibres. It is the first non-powered product of its kind to be tested for healing stages 3 and 4 stage wounds, and can aid patients who suffer from or are at a high risk of bed sores. The specially formulated layers cushion and bend to the shape of the user's body whether they seated and lying down, while the zero shearing top layer additionally reduces friction.
Who Can Benefit from the Treat-Eezi Community Pressure Relief Bed Sore Pad?
The Treat-Eezi Community Bed Sore Overlay is can treat patients who have pressure sores or who may develop them after lying or sitting down for long periods. Clinically proven to support healing of Stage 2, 3 and 4 pressure ulcers, it has a soft, cushioning, zero shearing design for a high level of efficacy and comfort.
How Does the Treat-Eezi Community Pressure Relief Bed Sore Pad Control Temperature?
For maximum comfort and reduced friction, the Treat-Eezi Overlay drains moisture to the bottom of the mattress, keeping users dry and comfortable. As a result, the overlay can prevent any issues or discomfort caused by sweating and overheating.
Can This Overlay Be Paired with a Seizure Alarm?
As Treat-Eezi products do not rely on electricity, unlike traditional alternating air mattresses, they do not set off monitor alarms. They can therefore be used alongside tonic clonic seizure alarms.
What Conditions Can the Treat-Eezi Overlay Help With?
Proven by the NHS to effectively treat stage 2, 3 and 4 pressure sores, the Treat-Eezi Overlay is the first non-powered pad to be trialled for stage 3 and 4 pressure sores. As demonstrated by the NHS-lead evaluation of these trials which can be found in the documentation section below, this pad is an inexpensive and simple solution for patients with a high risk of pressure sores.
How Versatile Is the Treat-Eezi Bed Overlay?
The Treat-Eezi Community Pressure Relief Bed Sore Pad can be lain on beds for use during the night, and can be folded onto foam based chairs for support when patients are sitting. The pressure scans (further explained in clinical data below) show how the overlay can reduce the amount of focused points of pressure on the user's body. Of course, this effect is heightened by an increase in layers or by pairing with foam surfaces, so the ideal amount of pressure relief can be achieved for every patient.

What Kind Of Chairs Can the Bed Overlay Be Used On?
Its durable material construction both ensures the cushion can last through repeated adjustments and patient repositioning, and allows patients to sit on rear or forward titling chairs as it will not slide when the chair is bent forwards.
How Easy Is It to Use the Treat-Eezi Bed Overlay?
As no pumps, electricity or power are needed for the Treat-Eezie Bed Overlay, it is a much more straightforward and efficient option to electrically powered or air pump cushions. As the Treat-Eezi Pad is also resistant to abrasion, it is sure to last long after purchase. It also comes with a 1 year manufacturer's warranty for your peace of mind (effective from the date of purchase).
Can I Clean the Treat-Eezi Community Bed Pad?
