Features of Trident Roller pillow
1. Simple turning
This pillow is of great help when turning the elderly, immobile or with difficulty moving, which is its main purpose. It is easy to use, stable and robust, which allows medical personnel to perform their work with minimal effort and without straining their own spine.
2. Helping handles
The Trident Roller Cushion has an additional handle on each side that helps with the process of turning the patient.
3. Antidecubitus effect
Due to its structure and the materials from which it is made, the Trident Roller Cushion enables safe application without pressure on critical parts of the body, thus reducing the possibility of pressure ulcers. It can be used in a lying or sitting position.
Purposes of Trident Roller Cushion
Support in the lying position
In the supine position, the role of the Trident Roller Cushion is to separate the critical parts (knees, ankles) and correct the position of the knee from extension and internal rotation to a slight flexion and neutral position.
This slight flexion of the knee prevents extensor contractures and decubitus on the back and inside of the knee and facilitates verticalization and walking.
Keeping the side position
The Trident Roller Cushion has firm and elongated outer sides and a central "horn" to make side lying easier and more stable. Raised sides lift the lower legs and feet off the floor without straining the user. In this position, we have placed all the places where decubitus usually occurs (heels, ankles, inner side of the knees) in a position where there is no pressure on those specific places.
Help in sitting position
In the sitting position, the Trident Roller Cushion has a dual purpose:
-
separate the knees with a soft and comfortable but firm and stable middle "horn" and at the same time stabilize them with the outer sides of the pillow to prevent sagging knees falling outwards or spastic knees falling inwards. In this way, contractures and decubitus are prevented, but it also enables more regular and stable sitting.
-
the lower side (the bottom of the cushion) facing up when sitting serves as a support for the hands, which can also have an excellent rehabilitative role in exercising (straightening) spastic fingers and wrists.
