User Manual
Pressure reducing wedge
The Invacare Softform Odstock Wedge was developed in partnership with clinicians to assist in the reduction of interface pressures on the sacrum and heels without significantly increasing pressure on the thighs or calves. It is designed to improve and maintain patient posture in the recumbent position and to reduce the tendency for the user to slip down the bed, thereby reducing shearing forces on the sacrum. The Odstock Wedge is ideal for improving posture in those with back discomfort.

Reduces pressure on the heels
Clinical research has effectively demonstrated that the degree of knee flexion
necessary to achieve substantial levels of pressure relief is relatively
small. The Invacare Softform Odstock Wedge was
designed by clinicians to reduce pressure on the heels through flexing the
knee and hip and elevating the knee.| By tilting the pelvis, the Odstock Wedge
also reduces lumbar lordosis – desirable following back
surgery and ideal for improving the sleeping posture of patients with back
problems.
