Protekt Gel Wedge Cushion w/ Pommel

The Protekt Gel Wedge Cushion w/ Pommel by Proactive Medical Products combines wedge-style positioning, pommel support, and gel-based pressure redistribution in one supportive wheelchair cushion. Designed for users who need help reducing forward sliding while improving hip and leg positioning, this cushion provides more structured support than a standard flat wheelchair cushion

The sloped wedge profile helps position the user more securely toward the back of the wheelchair seat, while the built-in pommel promotes proper hip positioning and helps guide the thighs into improved alignment. A gel bladder allows deeper immersion for pressure redistribution, and the firm high-density foam foundation helps reduce pressure caused by sling-seat hammocking. Finished with a breathable, fluid-resistant stretch nylon cover and safety buckles, the Protekt Gel Wedge Cushion with Pommel is a practical seating solution for users who need positioning support with added gel comfort

Positioning Support, Pommel Control & Gel Relief

Wedge Design for Better Seated Stability

The Protekt Gel Wedge Cushion w/ Pommel uses a sloped wedge profile to help reduce forward sliding and support a more secure seated position. This can be especially helpful for users who have difficulty maintaining posture on a flat cushion or sling-seat wheelchair

By encouraging the user to remain better positioned in the seat, the wedge shape supports alignment, comfort, and daily seated stability

Pommel Support for Hip & Thigh Positioning

The integrated pommel adds another level of positioning support by helping guide the thighs and promote proper hip positioning. This can benefit users who need help with leg alignment, thigh separation, or lower-extremity positioning while seated

Gel Bladder for Deeper Immersion

The gel bladder provides pressure redistribution beyond what a basic foam wedge cushion can offer. By allowing the user to immerse into the cushion surface, the gel layer helps reduce concentrated pressure beneath sensitive seated areas and improves comfort during extended sitting

Firm Foam Foundation for Support

A high-density foam base provides stable support beneath the gel bladder. This firm foundation helps reduce the hammocking effect common with sling-seat wheelchairs while creating a stronger seating surface for posture and positioning

Cover, Secure Fit & Daily Use

The Protekt Gel Wedge Cushion w/ Pommel includes a stretch nylon cover designed for routine wheelchair use. The cover is breathable for comfort, fluid resistant for protection, and practical for daily care needs

Safety buckles help secure the cushion to the wheelchair seat, reducing unwanted shifting during transfers, transport, or everyday mobility
