Gel-Foam Coccyx Scoops have anti-hammocking, anti-skid bottoms to eliminate the “slingseat sag,” while providing a stable base of support. They have contoured two-leg channeled medial thigh separators to promote proper leg alignment and reduce hip rotation. Coccyx Scoops assist in redistributing and off-loading sacral and coccyx pressure.
Many other wedges and cushions have flat bottoms, thereby elevating the sitter so their feet no longer touch the ground. This extra elevation often eliminates an individual's ability to foot propel. The convex bottom that eliminates the sling effect of vinyl-bottomed wheelchairs. This design allows the sitter to sit more comfortably without giving up mobility. Due to their low profile, these cushions are excellent for those individuals who are able to propel their wheelchair by foot movement. ***For the non-traditional sizes please call.

Generally, the reason to use a Geri-Chair Ischial Step or wedge is to keep the resident’s hips at the back of the Geri Chair. The Geri-Chair Ischial Step utilizes the natural curvature of the body to give an “Anchor Support.” Ischial Steps inhibit the hips from sliding forward without using any type of groin abductor; therefore, they are not considered a restraint by most survey teams. Ischial Steps are layered with Visco on the back portion for pressure redistribution. These devices have an Anti-Skid bottom to prevent them from sliding, even when in a reclined position.
Solid Bolsters are multi-functional devices. Solid Bolsters are best used under the knees for support when the heels are elevated. They may be used in bed as a neck roll. When placed vertically against the resident’s torso, they may be effective in preventing lateral leaning. When placed horizontally against the thigh, bolsters can assist in properly aligning the hips of the seated resident.
All Solid Bolsters are covered with a fluid-proof fabric and are flap-zipper closed to prevent foam from being exposed to body fluids. The foam is a highly resilient polyurethane, expected to maintain its cushioning properties for 8 to 10 years under everyday usage.
The Kyphotic Back Supports are always made to be resident specific. Each KYPHOTIC BACK comes with a set of LATERAL WEDGES which velcro on and can be removed or repositioned. These devices are manufactured with an area cut out to accommodate the bony protuberance of the resident’s Kyphotic spine. These devices have a solid insert, cushioned by the layering of various grades of HR and Visco polyurethane foams. These combinations provide support, pressure-redistribution, shockabsorbing, and body-molding properties along the entire affected spinal region. Used in conjunction with a reclined drop seat and the proper seating cushion, the Kypho-Back works well for those individuals who “C” shape forward in a wheelchair.
Drop Seats are used to lower the height of the resident’s seat so that the health care professional can properly seat the resident without elevating the feet beyond his or her functional capability. This often allows the resident to continue to be mobile. Because JDM’s Drop Seats are adjustable at all four corners, you may tilt the resident, if so needed. This sometimes inhibits the hips from sliding forward. This device is especially useful in conjunction with a Kyphotic-Back Device for those residents with a “C-shaping” forward.
JDM manufactures the Drop Seat utilizing a composite material which is strong enough to support the patient, but doesn’t add a lot of weight to the wheelchair. The hooks are made with a high-grade aluminum to prevent rusting and other decomposition. The Drop Seat can be modified to accommodate many different wheelchair sizes. Flip-Down Abductors are available as an accessory.
A convex-shaped bottom of high resiliency (HR) polyurethane to eliminate sling seat sag and provide a stable base of support.
Anti-skid bottom.
Contoured two-leg channeled medial thigh separators to promote proper leg alignment.
Coccyx-Scoops assist in redistributing and off loading sacral and coccyx pressures.
A pre-ischial step that utilizes the body’s natural curvature to inhibit sliding and thrusting.
A top layer of Gel Infused Visco Elastic Foam (G.I.V.E.) to redistribute pressure, body mold, absorb shock, and provide overall comfort.
The Solid Insert Coccyx Scoop comes with an anti-skid bottom, a coccyx scoop, a contoured two-leg channeled medial thigh separator and a one-inch layer of Visco. The contoured leg channels added to the wedge shape provide a slight abduction and improved alignment of the lower extremities. The coccyx scoop and Visco layering help redistribute pressure on the Coccyx, the I.T.’s and the entire seating area. The wedge shape helps to inhibit sliding. All coccyx scoop cushions are layered with Visco elastic polyurethane to redistribute pressure at key pressure points.
These cushions are an excellent preventative device for those residents with slight lower extremity adduction problems, and with recently healed decubs.
Adjustable Amputee Supports attach to swing away leg rest posts. The cushioned pad is manufactured with 2 inches of high resiliency (HR) foam and 1 inch of Visco to absorb impact, redistribute pressure and conform to amputated limb. The pad measures 3” x 8” x 10”.
The Pelvic-Obliquity Cushion is used for a flexible obliquity and is designed to build up the low side of the pelvis.
To address the pressures associated with positioning correction, JDM’s Pelvic Obliquity Cushions are layered with 1 inch of Visco elastic to assist in pressure redistribution.
The Solid Insert Ischial Step utilizes the natural curvature of the body to give an anchored support, and uses the posterior tilt of a wedge to prevent sliding. This combination moves the weight bearing pressure to the I.T.’s.
Because this pressure is being placed onto the solid-insert bottom, all solid-bottom Ischial Steps will have a minimum of 2 inches of HR Polyurethane foam, as well as 1 inch of Visco at the rear of the cushion to accommodate this I.T. pressure. Due to Visco’s compression capabilities, the additional one inch of Visco adds very little height when sat upon.
The Solid Insert Coccyx Scoop comes with an anti-skid bottom, a coccyx scoop, a contoured two-leg channeled medial thigh separator and a one-inch layer of Visco. The contoured leg channels added to the wedge shape provide a slight abduction and improved alignment of the lower extremities. The coccyx scoop and Visco layering help redistribute pressure on the Coccyx, the I.T.’s and the entire seating area. The wedge shape helps to inhibit sliding. All coccyx scoop cushions are layered with Visco elastic polyurethane to redistribute pressure at key pressure points.
These cushions are an excellent preventative device for those residents with slight lower extremity adduction problems, and with recently healed decubs.
Please note, If a 3-inch to 2-inch, or a 4-inch to 2-inch coccyx scoop incline is required, please use the anti-hammocking options.
The Solid Insert Coccyx Cutout is designed for those residents with existing difficulties at the coccyx area, such as decubitus ulcers. As the name implies, the coccyx portion of the cushion is “cut out.” The idea is to eliminate any pressure exerted on the wound and to redistribute the pressure surrounding the wound, promoting faster healing. The entire cushion or wedge is layered with Visco elastic polyurethane to redistribute pressure over the entire surface area; but, in particular, the Visco foam moulds to the shape of the body surrounding the cutout.
The Solid Insert Ischial Step utilizes the natural curvature of the body to give an anchored support, and uses the posterior tilt of a wedge to prevent sliding. This combination moves the weight bearing pressure to the I.T.’s.
Because this pressure is being placed onto the solid-insert bottom, all solid-bottom Ischial Steps will have a minimum of 2 inches of HR Polyurethane foam, as well as 1 inch of Visco at the rear of the cushion to accommodate this I.T. pressure. Due to Visco’s compression capabilities, the additional one inch of Visco adds very little height when sat upon.
The Solid Insert Wedge helps to inhibit sliding and sacral sitting by placing the patient into a posterior tilt. Because the posterior tilt moves the weight-bearing pressures to the ischials, JDM’s Solid Insert Wedges will have a minimum of three inches of high resiliency (HR) polyurethane foam, or two inches of HR along with one inch of Visco.
Solid Insert Flat Cushions are for individuals who do not have a potential for sliding and who do not have a history of sliding.
Cushions have a minimum thickness of 3 inches of HR polyurethane foam, or a combination of 2 inches HR and one inch of G.I.V.E.
