Roho High Profile Single Valve Cushion for Pressure Sore Healing

Pressure sores and skin breakdown pose serious health risks for wheelchair users who sit for extended periods. The Roho High Profile Single Valve Cushion delivers air flotation technology that actively redistributes pressure across the sitting surface, promoting healing of existing pressure ulcers while preventing new ones from forming through individualized support and maximum immersion.

Key Features

• High profile design with 4.25-inch cell height provides deep immersion for users at very high risk for skin breakdown
• Interconnected air cells adjust continuously to body position changes, eliminating pressure peaks that cause tissue damage
• Single valve inflation system allows quick, tool-free adjustment to achieve optimal immersion depth for individual body contours
• Two-way stretch neoprene cover moves with the user while resisting fluid intrusion and maintaining cell responsiveness
• Lightweight construction enables easy transfers between wheelchairs and transport surfaces without compromising support integrity
• Works effectively across multiple seating surfaces without requiring complex setup or reconfiguration between uses

Specifications

Ideal For

• Wheelchair users with existing Stage II-IV pressure ulcers requiring aggressive healing protocols and maximum offloading
• Individuals recovering from flap surgery or skin grafts who need uninterrupted pressure relief during extended sitting
• Patients with multiple pressure injury sites across the pelvis, sacrum, or ischial tuberosities needing comprehensive protection
• Home care environments where caregivers manage complex wound care regimens alongside daily mobility needs
• Rehabilitation facilities treating spinal cord injuries, neurological conditions, or other diagnoses with high pressure ulcer risk

What's Included

Care Instructions

• Check air pressure daily by performing hand-check test: slide hand palm-down beneath user's thigh to ensure 0.5-1 inch cushion clearance above seat base
• Wipe neoprene cover with mild soap and water; air dry completely before reinstalling over cushion cells
• Remove cover monthly to inspect air cells for leaks, punctures, or uneven inflation patterns
• Store in cool, dry location away from direct sunlight when not in use to preserve neoprene elasticity
• Avoid exposure to sharp objects, extreme temperatures, or petroleum-based products that degrade rubber materials
• Replace air cells if hand-check reveals bottoming out that cannot be corrected through reinflation

Warranty Information

This cushion includes a 2-year manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship under normal use conditions.

FAQs

Q: How do I know if I've inflated the cushion correctly?

A: Perform the hand-check test while the user is seated: slide your hand palm-down under their thigh. You should feel approximately 0.5-1 inch of cushion material between the seat base and the bony prominence. If you feel no cushion or more than 1 inch, adjust air volume accordingly.

Q: Can this cushion be used on airplane seats or in vehicles during transport?

A: Yes, the cushion provides consistent pressure relief across different seating surfaces. The lightweight design and single valve system make it practical for transfers between wheelchair, vehicle, and airline seating throughout the day.

Q: What's the difference between high profile and standard profile Roho cushions?

A: High profile cushions have 4.25-inch tall air cells versus 3-inch cells in standard versions. The extra height allows greater immersion depth for users with severe pressure ulcers or very bony prominences requiring maximum offloading.

Q: Does Medicare or insurance cover this cushion under HCPCS code E2622?

A: Many insurance plans cover pressure ulcer prevention cushions coded E2622 when prescribed by a physician and deemed medically necessary. Contact your provider with the HCPCS code and prescription documentation to verify your specific coverage.

Q: How often should I replace the air cells or cover?

A: With proper care, air cells typically last 2-4 years. Replace immediately if hand-check shows bottoming out despite proper inflation. Neoprene covers generally require replacement every 1-2 years due to normal wear, stretching, or fluid exposure degradation.
