Pressure-Alternating Wheelchair Cushion
Hand holding cell phone with the Ease Cushion app and the Pressure-Alternating Wheelchair Cushion lying next to it - all against a white background.

With static wheelchair cushions, one's body weight is constantly pressing down on the pelvic bones, compressing the tissue beneath; the result can be pressure sores. The Ease Cushion Pressure-Alternating Wheelchair Cushion adjusts pressure levels every minute to help increase blood flow via the system's smartphone app, which can also customize firmness levels plus get real-time data and an analysis of usage patterns. Consisting of a foam base, air cells, and an electronic air-pump medical device to prevent and treat pressure sores, the cushion utilizes a constantly changing pressure to the skin that is designed to help promote healing and reduce the risk of pressure ulcers.
