JAY Balance Cryo Fluid Cushion
Description
The Cryo Fluid technology is a wheelchair cushion that excels at reducing the risk of pressure injuries. The patented Cryo Fluid provides more options for skin protection. It actively cools the seated skin surface for up to 8 hours (internal testing data at 25° C) while evenly distributing pressure, reducing shear, and lowering the risk of moisture.
With traditional cushions on the market today, seated skin surface temperatures can rise to 37°C, leading to an increased risk in skin breakdown. Lowering the skin’s temperature as little as 1°C can reduce the risk of skin breakdown significantly.
The Cryo Fluid was engineered to mildly cool the skin within a therapeutic temperature range of 28°C – 35°C, effectively lowering the risk of skin breakdown. The cooler skin surface temperature has the added benefit of reducing the likelihood of moisture associated with localised perspiration.
Besides the Cryo Fluid technology the JAY Balance wheelchair cushion is also available with Flow Fluid or air insert.
