Repositioning users with or at risk of pressure injuries and determine the individual’s frequency of repositioning is strongly
recommended by international experts. Inability to make postural adjustments independently can lead to many negative health

achieve a relieving and calming body position.

cushions and/or combinations and nally positioning.

neorological users, people with decreased body awareness or
anxiety. (Illustration 1,2,3,4,5)

Immedia LeanOnMe w/channels
The channel-sewn pillow is a exible pillow that protects,
supports and relieves. The pillow can be rolled depending on
the application. The pillow can be shaped and placed under the
leg/s, between the legs, under the calves to relieve the heels,
support an arm or in lateral position, the pillow can be placed
in the back or between the legs to protect exposed areas. In the
sitting position, the pillow is placed in the back as a support by
e.g. dining. (Illustration 6,7,8,9)

The backrest cushion with wing is used lateral position. The user
lies on the wing so that the user’s own weight holds the pillow
in place. Then the back is supported precisely and stable. The

to protect exposed body parts from pressure from bed rails.
(Illustration 9,13)
Immedia LeanOnMe XXS
A functional small support cushion, which is placed where
smaller gaps occur between body and mattress when a
person is positioned. Typically, at the ankle and knee. Applying
the cushion has a relaxing effect on the body part, which
propagates to the rest of the body. The small cushion is the
professional replacement for the duvet clip - but it does not
collapse or atten out. (Illustration 10,11,12)
Immedia LeanOnMe Basic XL
A positioning cushion with a high side is used to provide stable
support in different positionings. The solid lling shapes itself to
the body and gives an even pressure. The pillow can be used to
support the back, legs or abdomen. (Illustration 9,13,14)

Traditional positioning cushions in 5 sizes can be used, in lateral
and supine positioning for supporting the back, arms and legs,
under the knees and ankles, or in supine position to facilitate
breathing. The positioning cushions can also be used to protect
exposed body parts from pressure from bed rails.
(Illustration 6,7,8,9,13,14,15,16,17,18)
