Owing to their alternating layout, the cushion automatically re-positions you so blood can circulate properly to the skin. This helps reduce the risk of decubitus pressure sores forming.

With its water-resistant and vapour-permeable cover, the Stratus Alternating Air Cushion is a convenient and hygienic solution to your needs.
