Action Centurion Cushion
Pressure and shear reduction for active users
The Action Centurion Cushion delivers essential pressure and shear reduction designed specifically for individuals assessed at low to moderate risk of skin breakdown. Clinicians will appreciate the dual layer construction that combines 1.6 cm of Akton polymer gel with a matching layer of high density foam for optimal immersion. This innovative seating solution benefits active wheelchair users and long term care residents by providing stable positioning without excessive weight or complex maintenance requirements. The waterproof protective film safeguards the core materials against incontinence, ensuring durability and sustained clinical efficacy for carers and users alike.
The cushion incorporates a top layer of proprietary Akton polymer gel to provide exceptional shock and vibration absorption. This specialized material effectively mitigates shear forces during transfers and active wheelchair propulsion. Unlike fluid based alternatives, the polymer maintains its consistency over time to ensure reliable pressure redistribution for the user.
Beneath the gel layer lies a 1.6 cm high density foam base that promotes postural stability. This foundational layer prevents bottoming out while supporting proper pelvic alignment for wheelchair users. The combination of foam and gel creates a comfortable yet supportive surface that encourages extended sitting tolerance in long term care environments.
The internal core components are completely sealed within a durable waterproof film to protect against fluid ingress. This moisture barrier is essential for clients managing incontinence issues and significantly extends the lifespan of the cushion. Carers will find the system easy to maintain as it resists bacterial growth and allows for straightforward cleaning protocols.
With a total height of just 3.2 cm, the low profile design maintains the user at an optimal seating height for transfers and environmental access. The lightweight nature of the cushion makes it highly practical for active individuals who need to independently handle their equipment. This straightforward design requires no complex setup or adjustments, delivering immediate clinical benefits upon deployment.
