The cover of the cushions is made of a material called Polyurethane coated polyester, which is a light polyester material that has a fire-retardant polyurethane coating on both sides. Furthermore, the cover is treated with a water-repellent agent.
This pressure-relieving positioning cushion is 15 cm high, ensuring a neutral position of the client’s hip and pelvis when one leg is elevated in the side-lying position. This eliminates any painful twists in the lower back, which are otherwise common in this position, and makes it possible for the patient to relax.
The positioning cushion combines two types of foam that create a firm core that ensures stability with a pressure-relieving surface. A multi-stretch cover allows the foam optimum working conditions and is vapour permeable and water-resistant, which means that the cushion does not absorb liquids.
Ensure Work Health & Safety
Combine this support cushion with our Wedge cushion, to create optimal working conditions when performing care tasks on a client in bed. These could be tasks such as wound care, dressing or when performing intimate hygiene in bed. Place the client’s one leg on Pad High and then place a Wedge in front and/or in the back of the client to ensure that the client is stabilised and comfortable during the whole process.
The support cushion's cover is made of a vapour-permeable material, that is also waterproof. This means that the cushion will not absorb liquids.
Supine position
This support cushion can also be used in the supine position to raise the patient’s legs and thereby relieve pressure on the sensitive heel area. When relieving the heels, it is especially useful to combine the positioning with the LEJRELET Wedge.
This square positioning cushion can also be used to create a 30-degree or 70-degree position where the leg is placed back onto the pillow. In both these cases, this support pillow allows for pressure relief on the coccyx, sacrum, and heels.

Read moreLEJRELET Wedge can be wiped clean with water and disinfectant liquids or poured over with boiling water. We recommend that the pillow is not machine washed, as water can seep through the seams, after which the foam takes a long time to dry. The cover cannot be removed, and we recommend that no other cover be placed on the outside of the pillow, as this may reduce the effects of the cushion.
The LEJRELET Tube 125, Tube 250, Pad Low and Oval are all made of 100 % viscoelastic foam. The foam is pressure relieving, provides a large support surface and high comfort for the client, as the foam forms in the desired position.
LEJRELET Wedge and Pad High are both made with a core of polyurethane foam covered with visco-elastic foam. This combination makes the cushions firm and supportive as well as provides an effective pressure relieving quality.
No, you can not. All the covers are either welded or sewn together. The only model with a zipper is the LEJRELET Pad High. It is made that way purely out of constructional reasons. The cover is not intended to be removed and we do not sell spare covers for the cushions separately.
LEJRELET Pad High
This square and firm support cushion is ideal for the support of legs, knees, and ankles. In the lateral position, place the client’s leg on the cushion to ensure a neutral hip joint while creating optimal conditions for performing intimate hygiene or other care tasks in bed.
