FEATURES OF THE P361CP /VISCOFLEX®+ WITH POMMEL

AN INNOVATIVE STABILISING POMMEL, THAT IS PREVENTION OF THE FORWARD SLIDING (SAGITTAL

ADJUSTABLE AND COMPLETELY SEPARATE FROM INSTABILITY)
THE CUSHION Ê Prevention against falls, and true alternative to retraints
Ê Unlike other systems inserting the pommel inside the cushion's cover, the
SYSTAM® stabilising pommel has its own cover attached on the cushion.
Ê Simplifies the setting and adjusting of the equipment under the patient by
the nursing personnal.
Ê Simplifies the transfer from the chair by allowing to remove instantaneously
and easily the stabilisation's wedge.

COMPLETELY COVERED POMMEL

Ê Provides an impermeable barrier against urine.
Ê Textile coated with flexible soft-to-the-touch polyurethane designed to
reduce the effect of friction at high-risk points.

CHAIR ATTACHMENT SYSTEM

Ê Reassures patients subject to forward sliding or falling from the chair by
maintaining the cushion in position, in spite of the pressure applied to the
front part of the cushion.
ANATOMICALLY SHAPED POMMEL
Ê Respects the morphological curve of thighs.
Ê Respects the natural opening angle of lower limbs (distal part slimmer than
proximal part).
Ê Deep, effort-free positioning of pommel for medical staff, while
simultaneously offering maximum patient comfort thanks to the particularly
slim sub-pubic tip.

ADJUSTABLE POMMEL DEPTH

Ê Adjustable large-amplitude (more than 10 cm) pommel, ensuring maximum
lifting.
Ê Precise adjustment to all patient morphologies.
Ê Pommel adjustment particularly easy for nursing staff thanks to the fact that
the pommel is completely separate from the cushion.

MOULDED STABILISING POMMEL

Ê No sharp ridges, thus reducing shearing zones and
resulting discomfort.

POSITION AND FORWARD SLIPPING IN GERIATRICS

Forward sliding in the sitting position is a very frequent

postural deficit in geriatrics. While sacro-coccygeal sores
have long been attributed exclusively to the supine position,
forward sliding in a sitting position is now recognised as a
major risk factor for sacro-coccygeal pressure sores in
geriatrics.

It is therefore essential to prescribe a support cushion as

soon as forward sliding occurs.

BAD POSITION GOOD POSITION

(Risk of sacral sores)

THE CAUSES OF FORWARD SLIDING POSTURE AND SITTING POSITION

Ê Forward sliding phenomena are caused by postural deficits that can be either
hypertonic (retropulsion, pelvic tilt) or hypotonic (weak paravertebral muscles,
accentuated kyphosis).
Ê The usual causes of forward sliding tend to be psychomotor regression, a
marked dorsal anatomy or a reaction to pain at pressure points.
RISKS LINKED TO FORWARD SLIDING
Sacro-coccygeal sores, the result of forward sliding
Ê The static position of the spinal column changes with age.
Ê Many studies show that aging is accompanied by an increase in dorsal
kyphosis and a loss of lumbar lordosis, with the pelvis tilting an average of 6°
between the ages of 40 and 60.
s
The effect of the positioning cushion on forward sliding
Ê It is therefore essential for these elderly patients to maintain a stable posture
in a raised sitting position in order to prevent the appearance of sacro-
coccygeal pressure sores and increased retropulsion.
Ê Forward sliding stabilised by a pelvic pommel thus blocks the pelvis on the
sagittal plane.
Ê This pommel must nevertheless be adjustable in depth over a large
amplitude in order to promote stabilisation with a maximum raised position.
Ê This is essential because any stabilisation that leaves even slight existing
forward sliding runs the risk of causing sacro-coccygeal pressure.
Ê The posterior part of the pommel is necessarily curved and tapered in order
to match the anatomic form of the pelvis, thus avoiding increased pressure
at the pubic symphysis.
Ê A pelvic pommel that is easily removable without completely or partially
removing the cushion cover greatly facilitates its removal for transfers.

The positioning cushion, a real alternative to restraints

Ê In practice, the use of restraints is still largely practiced in geriatric care units
a l ky p h o s i

in order to stabilise the sitting position.

Ê There are various procedures: bonds, attachments, bracelets, jackets,
harnesses, belts, safety bars, chair trays.
Ê The A.N.A.E.S. (experts committee) report recommends using an alternative

Ê Restraints prove to cause increased agitation, abdominal pressure and

are thus more pronounced in elderly people.
Ê With forward sliding, pelvic retroversion is sufficiently marked to provoke
considerable pressure of the sacro-coccygeal region in the sitting position.
Ê Moreover, when the pelvis shifts forward in the sitting position, the weight of
the upper part of the body generates shearing forces that favour the
appearance of sores.

Ê Overall, forward sliding in a sitting position is a major risk factor for sacro-
coccygeal sores in geriatrics.

The influence of forward sliding on breathing:

Ê Forward sliding in a sitting position progressively increases the curvature of
dorsal kyphosis, thus limiting rib cage amplification (rib cage expansion) and
diaphragm mobility. The respiratory capacity is thus clearly diminished.

SYST’AM® INNOVATION
DELIVERED WITH ITS NEW ELECTRONIC MEASURING
AND ADJUSTMENT SYSTEM
Ê Pressure gauge completely designed and manufactured by SYST'AM®, specially produced by our
R&D department for use with the POLYAIR® cushion
Ê Fully electronic, the measuring system is extremely accurate and specifically calibrated to measure
the micro-pressures inside the POLYAIR® cushion
Ê Unlike membrane-type pressure gauges (such as those adapted from cardiology instruments), the
measurements are not just more accurate with an electronic sensor, but they are also more reliable
and reproducible as there is no risk of membrane deformation or wear. As a result, inflation is much
more accurate.
Ê To adjust pressure through deflation, just press a button
Ê The new design makes the accessory more ergonomic, lighter, simpler and easier to use.

TWO COMPARTMENTS VERSION SPECIFICITIES

TWO SEPARATE COMPARTMENTS

Ê All POLYAIR® cushions feature dual compartments (left and right) which act
independently from each other. With the included manometer and pressure
guide chart, they can be inflated at equal or different pressure levels.
Ê This design is particularly useful in rectifying pelvic imbalances while at the
same time offering greater stability and comfort.

The Laxprene® material has been specially developed by SYST’AM® in order to
get :
- an anallergical material (Laxprene®≠Latex);
- a very extensible material with a very high tearing resistance.
Ê In addition, because the Laxprene® is worked through a dipping process,
POLYAIR® benefits of a great suppleness, ensuring a perfect response to the
inflation pressure.

PRODUCT «ADVANTAGES»
SYST’AM® BACK SUPPORT IS WITH THE CUSHION
FOR THE PREVENTION OF PRESSURE SORE :
A VERY COMPLEMENTARY SYSTEM
Ê Provides significant relief from the spinal pressure points.
Ê Reduces the risk of sores forming in the sacrum area due to the reduction in
sagital instability (forward slipping).
Ê Reduces shear effects on the sacrum/buttock area thanks to the better pelvic
support.

AN ANATOMIC FORM PERFORMANCE OF THE MULTIBEARING CONCEPT

Ê Respects the morphology of the back resulting from syphosis.
Ê Respects the Anatomy of the low lumbar, an important aspect of posture.
IMPROVED COMFORT
OF THE PATIENT IN HEELCHAIR
Ê Side padding to protect the axillary-dorsal zone from
contact with the frame of the chair, often painful for
wheelchair users.
Ê The multibearing surface enables a better pressures distribution
through the transfer of pressures from areas with low bearing
capacity toward areas with high bearing capacity :
WHITE AREAS :
Areas with low bearing capacity (gentle support) frees vertebral
zone from pressure peaks and favors proper dorsal fit.
BLUE AREAS :
Areas with high bearing capacity (firmer support) transfers pressure
from high-risk areas and accentuates lateral stability.

IMPROVEMENT OF THE POSITIONING

AND THE STABILITY OF THE PATIENT
Ê By stabilising the pelvic area it contributes to preventing the sliding and risks
of falling. This is a permanent issue for elderly at home and in nursing homes; COVER
Ê The sides "pads" reduce the lateral instability, which is frequent by
handicaped. Ê In the dorsal area, two-way stretch fabric
coated with polyurethane that breathes and
is totally waterproof.
