Pressure Smart XD1900
The next generation sheepskin is Pressure Smart XD1900. It is produced from Merino wool. Merino wool is processed by a Sliverknit machine to create a fleece with a pile density of more than 1900g of wool per square meter of surface. Pressure Smart XD1900 is distinguished by its Royal Blue or natural color and very dense wool pile.
Not only does Pressure Smart give enhanced comfort, but it also reduces skin moisture, allowing for better body temperature control. Furthermore, all pressure smart products are machine washable and machine dryable. It is advisable to wash pressure smart products in Woolskin to thoroughly clean, condition, and disinfect the wool.
Pressure Smart Products for Bedsore Prevention:
Down-Under Wool recommends the following pressure smart XD1900 products for bedsore prevention.
1. Pressure Smart XD Overlays:
Pressure Smart XD1900 overlays are made from Merino wool using the SilverKnit process. Pressure reduction, moisture absorption, and temperature management are all achievable with these overlays.
This overlay is available in two sizes: small and large. One is the SC104XD, which is 30" x 60" in size and provides all-over skin protection. The other is the M102XD, which has dimensions of 26" x 40" and is ideal for skin protection from the shoulders to the buttocks.You can use this on your bed, wheelchair, or recliner, but make sure to use it 24/7 to get the best results. Additionally, you can wash the overlay with any detergent; however, Woolskin detergent is recommended for maximum disinfection and longevity.
2. Pressure Smart XD1900 Pressure Care Assistant
The pressure care assistant is a 12” x 26” merino wool pad. It also features linen flaps to keep it in place when placed on a hospital bed or a twin-size bed. However, if you are using it on a larger bed, you can use safety pins to attach the flaps to the sheets.
The Pressure Smart XD1900 Pressure Care Assistant is commonly placed at the foot of the bed to protect the feet and ankles. Consequently, it reduces the burning sensation on your heels and prevents foot pressure sores. Nonetheless, it can be placed under the buttock area for bedsore prevention.
3. Shear Comfort Pressure Smart Wheelchair Armrest Supports
Each wheelchair armrest support is 13.5” x 5” and has 3 velcro straps to secure it in place. The Pressure Smart Wheelchair Armrest Supports are designed for wheelchairs; thus, they are sold in pairs. But you can use them as comfort enhancers for toilet seats and commode frames. These arm pads provide comfort, pressure redistribution, and moisture removal, all of which help prevent bedsores.
4. Pressure Smart XD1900 Elbow Protector
The elbow protectors fit securely around the elbows and are fixed with a Velcro strap. The thick merino pile forms a soft and comfortable protective cup around the elbow and keeps painful elbow joints warm. The Pressure Smart XD1900 Elbow Protectors protect the elbows from injury and bedsores.
5. Shear Comfort Palm Protector
The palm protectors are sold individually and can be worn on either hand. The Shear Comfort Palm Protector is worn over the thumb and around the hand to provide a cushioning pad for the hand. Thus, curling fingers, sprained fingers, and cramps can all be relieved with it. It provides warmth and support to the fingertips while allowing the fingers to curl. It also prevents the nails from digging into the palm.
6. Pressure Smart XD1900 Cushion-It
The pressure smart cushion-it is 18” x 22” and has velcro straps. These velcro straps can be attached under existing sitting materials if desired and allow you to move cushion-it from chair to car, chair to another chair, or car to chair.
It promotes air circulation and pressure distribution creating a comfortable seating environment. Therefore, you do not develop pressure sores. Use one for the seat and one for the back, and make sure to use it 24/7 for maximum results.
The most convenient thing about this pressure smart product is that it may increase the comfort of any chair. This includes office chairs, armchairs, canvas wheelchair seats, and pressure care cushions. Consequently, it has outperformed all other sheepskin products.
7. Shear Comfort Foot Plate Covers
The footplate covers aim to enhance the comfort level of the feet of wheelchair users. These are sold in pairs and have velcro straps to secure them in one place. As they are made from premium merino wool, they provide additional padding for feet and reduce moisture and pressure. If you put your feet with socks, barefoot, or in shoes on Shear Comfort Foot Plate Covers, your feet will not develop pressure sores.
