Description

Movement serves as a protective mechanism against pressure ulcers and other bed-related complications. Individuals with decreased sensation, limited mobility, and/or altered consciousness may lack the ability to respond to the body’s warning signals, such as pain or discomfort. In such situations, individuals may need support and relief in lying and sitting position. Our product series of positioning pillows is used as an aid to relieve pressure and provide support during positioning and position changes, benefiting both the individual and the caregiver. Regular, minor adjustments in position are often enough to ensure proper blood circulation(1), thereby reducing the risk of pressure ulcers. Example of positioning Curera® Curved Pillow is an arched pillow that can be used in a hugging position in both sitting and lying positions, providing comfort and stability. Curera® Curved Pillow can be used for individuals with impaired trunk balance and for increased body awareness. A Curera® Multi Pillow, or alternatively two Curera® Support Wedges, can be placed under the legs to prevent from sliding downward. Positioning pillows can be used to relieve pressure and position the individual based on their diagnosis, needs, and general condition. Keep in mind that relief should be as even as possible, and a change in position always results in increased pressure on another part of the body(5). You can learn more about positioning and get specific tips in our positioning guide.
