Protekt Foam Wedge Cushion
Proactive MedicalThe Protekt Foam Wedge Cushion by Proactive Medical Products is designed to improve wheelchair positioning, comfort, and seated stability by helping reduce forward sliding during daily use. Its sloped wedge profile encourages a more secure seated position, making it a practical choice for users who need better posture support than a flat wheelchair cushion can provide. The wedge design is specifically intended to help users who are prone to sliding forward while seated and may also support users who require frequent hip repositioning.
Built with supportive foam construction and a breathable, fluid-resistant stretch nylon cover, the Protekt Foam Wedge Cushion offers a simple, low-maintenance seating solution for wheelchairs, transport chairs, and general care environments. The non-inflatable design requires no air adjustment, while strap fastening with a buckle helps keep the cushion positioned securely on the wheelchair seat during use.

Positioning Support That Helps Reduce Sliding
The Protekt Foam Wedge Cushion is designed for users who need improved seated stability and better positioning in the wheelchair. The angled wedge shape helps discourage forward sliding by positioning the user more securely toward the back of the seat.
This can be especially helpful for users who have difficulty maintaining posture in a flat cushion or sling-seat wheelchair. By creating a more stable seating surface, the cushion helps support comfort, alignment, and confidence during everyday use.
Foam Comfort with Simple Daily Care
The Protekt Foam Wedge Cushion provides dependable support without the complexity of an adjustable air or gel system. Its foam construction creates a stable seating base, while the stretch nylon cover adds comfort, breathability, and fluid resistance for routine wheelchair use.
The buckle-secured design helps reduce unwanted cushion movement, making it practical for home care, caregivers, facilities, and daily mobility routines.
