Core Therapeutic Capabilities & Innovation
Ideal for patients requiring the use of cushions in a wheelchair, Lacura Nonskid Solid Seat Insert eliminates the hammocking effect of sling seats. The insert creates a firm, flat base for any seat cushion and prevents internal rotation of the femurs. The insert is also designed to enhance comfort and reduce residual pressure for everyday wheelchair use.
Made with high-density, radius bottom, foam construction, the solid seat insert can accommodate any positioning or pressure-relief cushion. It helps prevent sacral sitting and side-to-side tilt for improved sitting posture and pelvic balance. The solid seat insert is available in a variety of different sizes including: 22” x 18”, 20” x 18”, 20” x 16”, 18” x 18”, 18” x 16”, and 16” x 16”.
Because increased pressure can cause pressure ulcers, it’s important to use a solid seat insert placed underneath the wheelchair cushion. The seat insert features a non-removable, vinyl-coated polyester, non-slip cover that can easily be wipe clean between uses. The non-skid outer cover helps keep the cushion from moving as you shift in your seat.
