What Role Do Mattresses and Cushions Play in Weight Distribution?
Mattresses and cushions are crucial in distributing weight for patients who spend a lot of time in bed or sitting. Specialized pressure-relieving mattresses and cushions are designed to conform to the bodyâs shape, providing support and minimizing pressure points. Foam, gel, air, and alternating pressure mattresses are some options that can be used to improve weight distribution and prevent complications.
