SYST'AM® P951D / BACK SUPPORT

Back support made of viscoelastic foam with memory effect and multi-bearing surface

Description

SYST’AM® Back support is with the cushion for the prevention of pressure ulcer: a very complementary system
• Provides significant relief from the spinal pressure points.
• Reduces the risk of sores forming in the sacrum area due to the reduction in sagital instability (forward slipping).
• Reduces shear effects on the sacrum/buttock area thanks to the better pelvic support.

Improved comfort of the patient in wheelchair

• Side padding to protect the axillary-dorsal zone from contact with the frame of the chair, often painful for wheelchair users.

Improvement of the positioning and the stability of the patient

• By stabilising the pelvic area it contributes to preventing the sliding and risks of falling. This is a permanent issue for elderly at home and in nursing homes;
• The sides "pads" reduce the lateral instability, which is frequent by handicaped.

Moulded viscoelastic foam with memory effect

• Precise moulding of the body and increase of the body surface in contact with the cushion;
• Better pressures distribution: reduction of transcutaneous pressures on areas at high risk and facilitated blood circulation;
• Improved comfort and stability of the patient;
• Skin effect obtained through the moulding process: protection of the foam against external aggressions (tear, crumbling);
• With a very high density to prevent deformation and sagging effects.

Performance of the multibearing concept

• The multibearing surface enables a better pressures distribution through the transfer of pressures from areas with low bearing capacity toward areas with high bearing capacity:
WHITE AREAS: Areas with low bearing capacity (gentle support) frees vertebral zone from pressure peaks and favors proper dorsal fit.
BLUE AREAS: Areas with high bearing capacity (firmer support) transfers pressure from high-risk areas and accentuates lateral stability.

An anatomic Form

• Respects the morphology of the back resulting from syphosis.
• Respects the Anatomy of the low lumbar, an important aspect of posture.

COVER

• In the dorsal area, two-way stretch fabric coated with polyurethane that breathes and is totally waterproof.
• Stretch, coated fabric resists abrasion and constraints of intensive daily use.
• Highly resistant technical fabric positioned in areas subject to greater abrasion.
