Roho Air Flotation Cushion for Pressure Sore Prevention and Relief

Wheelchair users facing pressure sore risk or existing ischemic ulcers need a cushion that actively redistributes weight and adapts to body contours. The Roho Air Flotation Cushion uses interconnected air cells to maximize pressure distribution, enhance blood flow, and support healing while preventing new skin breakdown in both clinical and home settings.

Key Features

• Interconnected air cell technology conforms to individual body shape and adjusts automatically as posture or weight shifts throughout the day.
• Single compartment design equalizes air pressure across all cells, eliminating high-pressure points that cause tissue damage and impede circulation.
• High Profile model (4-inch cells) delivers therapeutic-level pressure relief for Stage III-IV ulcers and users requiring maximum skin protection.
• Low Profile model (2-inch cells) balances skin protection with enhanced stability for active users, facilitating easier transfers and mobility.
• Absorbs shock and impact from daily wheelchair movement, protecting vulnerable tissue during transport over uneven surfaces.
• Water-resistant, removable cover included with each cushion for simplified cleaning and infection control.

Specifications

Ideal For

• Post-surgical recovery patients requiring extended wheelchair sitting with minimal pressure on healing incisions or grafts.
• Long-term care facility residents at high risk for pressure ulcer development due to immobility or sensory impairment.
• Active wheelchair users needing skin protection without sacrificing transfer ease or seated stability during daily tasks.
• Home caregivers managing existing pressure sores (Stages I-IV) as part of wound care protocols.
• Hospital discharge planning for patients transitioning from bed rest to wheelchair mobility with skin integrity concerns.

What's Included

• One air flotation cushion with interconnected cell system (profile height per variant selected)
• Water-resistant, removable cushion cover with zipper closure
• Inflation pump for initial setup and periodic adjustments
• Repair kit for emergency puncture patching
• Setup and adjustment instructions

Care Instructions

• Wipe cushion cells with mild soap and water; allow to air-dry completely before replacing cover to prevent mold growth.
• Machine wash cover in cold water on gentle cycle; tumble dry low or line dry away from direct heat sources.
• Check air pressure weekly by pressing hand into cushion—proper inflation allows 1-inch clearance between user's ischial bones and seat base.
• Inspect cells monthly for leaks by submerging inflated cushion in water and watching for bubbles; patch immediately if puncture detected.
• Store cushion partially inflated in cool, dry location away from sharp objects when not in use for extended periods.

Quality & Compliance

Suggested HCPCS code E2622 may assist with insurance documentation for eligible wheelchair seating systems. Cushion design addresses clinical protocols for pressure ulcer prevention in mobility-impaired populations as outlined in wound care guidelines.

FAQs

Q: How do I know which profile height is right?

A: Choose High Profile (4-inch) for existing pressure sores or severe risk factors; select Low Profile (2-inch) if you transfer frequently and need easier mobility with preventive protection.

Q: Can I adjust the firmness after initial inflation?

A: Yes. Add or release air through the single valve to achieve proper height—you should have approximately 1 inch of clearance between your sit bones and the wheelchair seat when seated.

Q: How often should I replace the cushion?

A: With proper care, air cells last several years. Replace when cells lose air repeatedly despite patching, or when material shows cracking or permanent deformation.

Q: Will this cushion work with my wheelchair's dimensions?

A: Measure your wheelchair seat width and depth. High Profile fits 15"W × 16"D seats; Low Profile fits 16"W × 18"D. Cushion should sit flat without overhanging edges.

Q: Is the cover waterproof or just water-resistant?

A: The included cover is water-resistant, protecting against light spills and moisture. For incontinence protection, consider pairing with a separate waterproof cover designed for medical use.
