Vicair Vector / O2 Cushion

Description

A Vicair cushion requires little or no maintenance once it is properly adjusted in situations where necessary. Adjustments can be made to the cushion while an individual is sitting on it, resulting in fewer transfers. There’s no need to worry about re-inflation or leaks with Vicair® cushions. Air is encapsulated in the SmartCells™, which have excellent pressure distribution properties. The SmartCells™ envelop the seating surface, distributing pressure away from the delicate areas of the sacrum, coccyx and ischial tuberosities while also providing relief from shear.

If an individual’s positioning needs change over time, SmartCells™ can be added to or removed from the cushion’s compartments. If an individual has a flexible orthopaedic deformity butcannot tolerate full correction at one time, gradual, gentle adjustments are also possible thanks to the unique design of the SmartCells™ and cushion compartments.StableThe unique immersion properties of Vicair’s SmartCells™ allow the user to immerse into the cushion while also providing stability. This gives users independence when engaged in everyday activities and also provides a stable base for transfers and improved propulsion efficiency.Light Weight

  Users can keep the overall weight of their mobility system to a minimum with Vicair’s ultra lightweight technology. The cushions weigh 1.25 to 1.8 pounds.
