Smart Check
Think of Smart Check as a personal electronic cushion security device that offers real-time feedback to ensure proper ROHO cushion inflation range with just
the push of a button. Smart Check can
also store recommended ROHO inflation ranges, so consumers and caregivers don’t have to guess about how much air should be in the cushion. Smart Check can make ROHO products more accessible to clients who might have been hesitant to try these cushions in the past. Check with your ROHO rep regarding compatible ROHO cushions.

Contour Insert
Made of urethane foam, this cushion features a space in the pelvic region in which an extra pad — made of gel, air cells or other foams — can be inserted. This hybrid concept allows alternating between work on the sitting posture and protection at the skin level. The Contour Insert cushion provides better control of the pelvis and increased stability of the trunk. Four removable inserts are available for customized applications. The contoured foam base is designed to provide relief in the coccyx and sacral
areas. Overall, the Contour Insert cushion is engineered for users with current pressure injuries or high risk of developing them.

PinDot ContourU
For clients with more complex orthopaedic asymmetries or tone abnormalities, the PinDot Seating Series ContourU offers an accurate, individualized fit. ContourU seat and back cushions give full-contact support, even weight distribution and excellent stability to enhance its user’s abilities in
a way that off-the-shelf seating just can’t match. Simulation is used to measure the surface shapes and contact areas, while precise VirtualU technology ensures exact duplication of the shape created.

Ride Java
Created for users looking for greater sitting stability and improved functional perfor- mance, the Java also works to improve skin outcomes, including lower tissue distortion and lower long-term skin risk. The cushion redistributes forces of pressure and shear away from high-risk areas, while applying the forces to more tolerant areas. Java’s design and cover materials are made to maintain cool, dry skin to encourage poten- tially lower pressures and less deep-tissue distortion. This enhanced sitting perfor- mance requires no regular fit-essential main- tenance. Java can be adjusted using Ride CAM wedges if users’ conditions change.

JAY Fusion
This adjustable cushion is a combination of
a JAY Flow Fluid insert and soft, dense foam. These features allow the cushion to conform to each user’s shape and ensure proper
fluid placement beneath bony prominences to help protect skin from breakdown. The Fusion’s contoured base is made of closed- cell foam to provide ideal positioning of pelvis and thighs as well as reduce fluid migration in the insert. JAY Flow Fluid allows for deep pelvic immersion into the cushion to distribute pressure and help prevent
skin breakdown. The Fusion is available in Reduced Profile, Positioning, Fusion Core and with a single- or dual-valve ROHO air insert.
