This full-body positioning bolster is ideal for creating comfortable and pressure relieving positions for clients or patients in bed. The cylinder-shaped bolstering cushion is 250 cm long, which means that it can support the body from head to toe all at once.

Unlike similar body pillows, Tube 250 is filled with pressure-relieving foam granulate, which is moldable and provides stability and comfort. This means that the body cushion is suitable for creating comfortable side-lying positions, 30-degree positions and other pressure relieving positions adapted to the client’s needs.

The foam filling and multi-stretch cover provide superior pressure relieving properties, making this positioning aid ideal for preventing and treating pressure ulcers.

Positioning for Tactile Stimulation

This long body pillow has a nice weight to it, that provides tactile stimuli and optimal support of clients with sensory deprivation, such as clients with Alzheimer’s Disease or other cognitive disorders.

Clients in need of extra tactile stimuli can hug the body bolster while lying on the side and being supported alongside the entire body.

Stable position

Unlike rolled up covers and duvets, this full-body positioning bolster creates a comfortable positioning while allowing for heat and moisture to evaporate. This means that the risk of tissue damages caused by maceration is eliminated.

The foam granulate filling also ensures that the cushion moulds according to the position of the client without compromising the stability of the position. Unlike cushions filled with Styrofoam balls, this bolster cushion stays in place, keeping the desired position for as long as needed.

LEJRELET Tube 250 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.
