Pressure Ulcer Prevention
Pressure Ulcer Prevention
Advanced Skin Protection Solutions
Pressure ulcers (bedsores) remain a critical concern in healthcare, particularly for patients with limited mobility, neurological conditions, or extended hospital stays. These painful wounds not only compromise patient comfort but also increase the risk of infection and prolong recovery times. Effective prevention requires a proactive approach combining pressure redistribution, moisture management, and frequent repositioning. Ehucon’s pressure ulcer prevention system integrates evidence-based design with practical caregiving solutions to protect vulnerable skin and improve patient outcomes.
Targeted Pressure Redistribution
Prolonged pressure on bony prominences—such as heels, elbows, and the sacrum—is a primary cause of tissue breakdown.
3D Heel Protector System
Features an open-cell foam design that cradles the foot while allowing airflow, reducing interface pressure by up to 70% compared to standard bedding. The wraparound design stays securely in place without restrictive straps, making it ideal for patients with edema or sensitive skin.
Pressure-Relieving Seat Cushions
Use viscoelastic foam to evenly distribute weight and minimize shear forces during sitting, protecting vulnerable areas in seated patients.
Moisture & Microclimate Control
Excess moisture from sweat or incontinence accelerates skin breakdown.
Breathable Sling Collection
Incorporates moisture-wicking fabrics that pull dampness away from the skin, maintaining a dry microenvironment. The antimicrobial-treated materials inhibit bacterial growth, addressing a key factor in wound development.
Tubular Slide Sheets
Enable gentle repositioning without friction-induced skin tears, a common precursor to pressure injuries in bedbound patients.
Specialized Support for High-Risk Patients
Bariatric Care Solutions
High-Capacity Slings feature reinforced stitching and wider pressure surfaces to protect skin in patients with higher BMI.
ICU/Post-Surgical Support
The Low-Profile Positioning System minimizes pressure on incision sites or medical devices (e.g., tracheostomy tubes).
Neurological Conditions
Anti-Spasticity Pads reduce repetitive friction caused by involuntary movements, preventing skin breakdown in patients with conditions like cerebral palsy or Parkinson's.
Why Ehucon Stands Out
Clinically Validated
Designs informed by tissue viability specialists and wound care nurses.
Easy Integration
Complements existing hospital protocols like the Braden Scale assessments.
Cost-Effective
Reduces long-term treatment costs associated with advanced-stage ulcers.
