How to Select the Best Wheelchair Cushions?

Choosing the best wheelchair cushion is an important task as it can drastically change the condition of the patient using the cushion. Try to understand the position in which the cushion will be used. Find out about the shape of the cushion and factors, such as coccyx cutout, anti-thirst, cushioning, versatility, effect on pressure sores, weight-bearing capacity, thickness, type of filling, etc. Once you are clear about all these factors, you can choose from a wide range of products available in the market. Ergo21 wheelchair cushion is a great option as it features advanced LiquiCell technology and is available in 5 sizes. It is versatile and can be used as recreational scooters, mobility scooters, transport and sports wheelchairs.

Coccyx cut out cushions are not recommended for wheelchairs, recliners or cars. Why? Because one is not able to move and position oneself on these kind of seating. Coccyx cushion can be used for short period of time when there is a tail bone injury and when one feels that they need more cushioning all over then switch to the Ergo21 Sports, Original or Travel cushion. The Ergo21 Sports cushion is a rectangle design well suited for wheelchairs and the Ergo21 Original or the Travel works best on Mobility scooters, cars, trucks and suv’s where the seats are designed like Bucket seats. The Ergo21 Travel also works well as a Lumbar Cushion for the back in wheelchairs where the Ergo21 Lumbar cushion causes one to sit too forward. The Small Ergo21 Lumbar Cushion is good for wheelchairs and low back office or dining chairs. The large Ergo21 Lumbar Cushion works well on Mobility Scooters, Recliners, sofa and driving comfort.
