Hudson Medical 2 Sport-Lite User Manual

Size Selecon of the Sport-Lite™
Wheelchair Cushion

Simply select the cushion that would match the width of your hips when

seated. Cushion size should not be determined by the wheelchair seat width.

Improper cushion fit will affect the performance of pressure distribuon of the
cushion and its proper posioning support of the body.

The length of the cushion should be determined by placing the cushion at
the back of the wheelchair while the length extends to the front within 1" to 2"
from the back of the knees. The ischial tuberosies (sing bones) should be
centered in the seat in the center of the back seang area.

The footrest should be adjusted properly in order to enhance seang
comfort and help to lower peak seang pressures.

In order to prevent the Sport-Lite™ from sliding on the wheelchair uphol­stery, especially during transfers, follow these instrucons.

wheelchair seat.

Step 2. Peel off the paper backing of the Velcro

strip provided and place 2" from the front, in the

Velcro strip on the boom of the upholstered

Sport Lite™ Cushion as well as the non-slip

surface and the Velcro strip placed on the seat
will prevent sliding when changing body posion

while seated.

water and air dry. No ironing is required.

To Clean the Molded Foam Core

To clean the foam core simply spot clean or wipe with moist warm cloth.

defects in material and workmanship for a period of 18 months from

the date of purchase under normal use. Should defect occur, the
cushion should be returned by the customer to the place of purchase

with original sales receipt. Hudson Medical will determine if it is a
manufacturing defect and replace or repair the cushion without charge.

This warranty does not apply to punctures, tears and burns to the
cushion or removable cover.

2” Wheelchair Cushion

Designed to Maximize Pressure Relief,

Skin Protection and Comfort.

Molded Foam Core with (PST)
Progressive Support Technology

PST produces the right degree of cushion

firmness. Smaller, lightweight clients receive
a soer more compliant cushion, average
weight clients a medium firmness and larger
heavier clients receive a firmer more support­ive cushion. The unique construcon of high
resilient (HR) molded foam provides maximum
stabilizaon, posioning, pressure relief and
correct seang posture.

Poly-Lite™ Pressure Relief Bladders

The inner liner membrane has bladders
filled with Poly-Lite™. A unique proprietary
super lightweight microspherical polymer that
provides the lowest pressure readings while
seated reducing the likelihood of pressure
sores. Poly-Lite™ weights 25% the weight of
gel, silicone or water and will not freeze, heat
up, evaporate, dry out, harden, separate,
boom-out, support a flame and is non-toxic.

Sport-Lite™ Cover

Outer cover is a removable, washable,
flame retardant, stretch polyester knit to
reduce interface pressure and shearing. It is
constructed with a vapor permeable moisture
proof urethane backing and a non-slip boom
for comfort and safety.

lightweight microspherical polymer gel (weighs 1/4 the weight of silicone or
any other aqueous based gel) that has been radio frequency sealed for
strength and to prevent leakage. The Poly-Lite™ bladders are strategically
placed in the coccyx, ischial tuberosity and thigh area to reduce pressure
and allow capillary blood flow.

The Pressure EEZ® Sport-Lite™ Cushion is uniquely designed using a high
resilient (HR), custom molded foam core that posions the body in the
correct seang posture, provides a leg abducon post to prevent leg
