The Invacare Matrx Flo-tech Image is a unique cushion ideal for both chair and wheelchair use. It is designed to protect those who have a high risk of developing pressure ulcers. The cushion has a slimline moulded cushion and a fluid sac covering the sacral area. This helps the cushion to increase pressure distribution and immersion of the ischial tuberosities.
Matrx Flo-tech Image features a slimline contoured foam and gel combination cushion. Users that prefer a slimline cushion would find it more compatible with their daily living activities. This cushion combines the benefit of a contoured foam upper surface with a large fluid sac covering the ischial and sacral area – providing increased support and reduced peak pressures.
Matrx Flo-tech Image also comes with an ingress resistant cover – the cover is two-way stretch water-resistant and vapour-permeable. The cover features an anti-slip base with carrying handle. Matrx Flo-tech Image is built with several unique features to function effectively.
Key features include:
- Pressure re-distribution cushion suitable for those who are at a high risk of developing pressure sores.
- Contoured seating surface with gel sac: This offers improved stability and postural support; moulded foam castellations and fluid combine effectively to reduce shear and friction forces on the tissue.
- Ingress Resistant Cover: Matrx Flo-tech Image comes with a two-way stretch, water-resistant and vapour-permeable cover. The cover has an anti-slip base with carrying handle.
- Integral Sag Compensator option: This helps to accommodate the sag in wheelchair seats, and ensure the cushion is correctly presented.
- Available in 23 sizes: 360 x 330 to 460 x 410 mm.
- Ultra-freshTM added to all Matrx Flo-tech cushions for antimicrobial and odour protection: This helps to make it resistant to the growth of odour causing bacteria.
- Colours available: black smooth, black wipe-down, black spacer fabric, and black blue.
