Cushions
- 1About
Our cushions are moldable support cushions for head and neck. They provide a personalized and secure support for patients ensuring a comfortable and precise treatment. The cushions are made from low-density thermoplastic materials which become soft and moldable when heated. When cooled the cushion will become firm and rigid ensuring a great reproducibility and precise placement of the patients head and neck.
- 2Preparation
Heat in a Candor Air Oven for 10 minutes, or in a Classic Oven for 20 minutes. The cushion will become soft and easily moldable when material is fully heated and ready to use. To prepare in a Waterbath, leave the cushion in the plastic cover and heat for 5 minutes per side – and keep the lid shut – no peeking. Cushions can also be placed in a blanket warmer and left in for several hours. The cushion can be left in a heating device longer than the required heating time – an hour is safe. Do not heat them at a higher temperature than 73˚C (165˚F) as the pellets will shrink.
The material normally sets in 7-10 minutes, with a working time of 3-4 minutes, depending on thickness and room temperature.
The cushions can be reheated and remolded as needed per single patient. Place cushions back in an oven for complete remolding, or use a hair dryer or heat gun for spot-treatment. Usually, if they have to be completely remolded more than twice, it’s recommended to start over with a fresh cushion.
