Computer-Aided
Design and Manufacture
In spite of a large range of
available cushions, patients still often suffer
from ischiatic sores and all the relavant
medical, economic, social and psychological well
know consequences.
A
Customized Solution
When people with sores risks are
sitting on a computer-aided designed and
manufactured customized seat, the interface
pressures are obviously lower that those with
mass-produced cushions.
A Reliable
Prevention
In order to improve the comfort of
people in wheelchair, the cutomized seat can also
correct partly some unbalanced positions when
sitting.
Most patients have noticed a great
improvement of comfort and stability.
An
Innovative Approach for Sore Prevention
- Display of pressure
points: when taking measurements, the
patient must sit in his personal
wheelchair. A soft matrix is used to
measure and record pressures.
- Calculation of optimal
shape: Ergomedic software takes
care of the data treatment obtained when
displaying of pressure points and send
through Internet the data needed for
computer-aided manufacture.
- Manufacturing by a CNC
milling machine: the customized
cushion is manufactured with a high
accuracy digital milling machine (first
stage: bearing material, second stage:
surface material)
The SADMERC coding verification
has reviewed the Ergomedic cushion and has granted for
reimbursement the following Medicare code:
