Bariatric No-Slip Wedge
The Bariatric No-Slip Wedge is a reliable turning and positioning solution for bariatric patients. The Bariatric No-Slip Wedge has a firm, high-density foam core that provides a high weight capacity for sustaining the NPIAP recommended 30-degree side lying position. A high-density visco-elastic foam is laminated to the top of the cushion, which enhances comfort and pressure redistribution.
- Consistent and reliable way to maintain a 30 degree side lying position for patients weighing up to 650 pounds.
- Convex Surfaces on the patient and caregiver sides make the wedge more supportive than standard turning and positioning wedges.
- Extra-firm core supports more weight and a plush Visco Elastic foam top layer enhances comfort and pressure redistribution.
- Covered with a skin friendly, moisture proof friction and shear reducing cover on the patient contact side with a panel of “No-Slip” fabric on the bottom.
- All materials are antimicrobial, latex free and meet the California Technical Bulletin #117-2013 fire safety standard.
- No-Slip fabric on the bottom of the reusable version prevents the wedge from moving while in use.
