APK2
This battery-operated cushion provides automatic treatment for pressure injuries. The APK2 stimulates circulation by auto- matically alternating internal air bladders, providing an action similar to performing a manual pressure lift. The cushion is custom built to o oad existing injured areas while alternating elsewhere to allow injuries to heal while the client is sitting. The APK2 was designed for clients who have existing pres- sure injuries or are at high risk for developing them. The cushion is coded E2609 and can be built to any size or shape, with no user weight limit.

SofTech
Operating in a similar way to an alternating mattress, the SofTech cushion was designed to both prevent future and help to heal existing pressure injuries. The cushion can be con gured to o oad directly under an existing injury. This means the client can
sit while the cushion o oads under the injury and stimulates circulation throughout the rest of the posterior. SofTech changes pressure distribution as often as 60 times per hour and is therefore much more convenient than doing pressure-relief lifts. SofTech has no cushion size or weight limit, and each cushion is custom made for a speci c client.

Titanium Gel/Foam
The Drive Medical Titanium Skin Protection and Positioning Gel/Foam cushion is designed to o er superior pressure redis- tribution via a combination of resilient, high-density foam and a dual-chamber gel bladder. Together, these media are designed to encourage proper posture through immersion into the cushion. A middle contour assists with positioning as a built-in leg abductor. The low-shear, uid-resistant cover helps to maintain skin health, while the non-skid bottom o ers added stability and safety. The cushion is HCPCS coded E2611/E2612.

SunMate
SunMate cushions combine high-impact energy absorption with soft pressure properties. Its slow spring-back enables it to contour to the user’s body, then slowly return to its original shape once pressure is removed. An open-cell structure maxi- mizes air ow to reduce heat build-up, and viscoelastic properties allow the cushion to uniformly distribute pressure and absorb impact energy to alleviate sitting fatigue. Standard and custom sizes are available, as are wedges and contoured cushion shapes to meet the diverse needs of the wheel- chair-using population.
