Ischial pressure elimination
Since 1989, the Isch-Dish has been the most direct seating solution for those
with, or at high risk for pressure ulcers at the ischium or coccyx.
Unlike other products that merely equalize pressures across the seating surface,
the patented, open pocket design of the Isch-Dish actually eliminates pressure at the ulcer site while ventilating heat and moisture.
Documented as an important complement to any wound treatment, and for long term prevention.
Promotes healthful, upright posture by controlling pelvic tilt. Reduces "sacral
sitting" that can cause skin breakdown. Includes multi-tiered foam support core
(see Tab 3 above) protected by Durafilm™ incontinence-proof coating, machine washable deluxe cover, removable Sling-Fill seat base, 2-year warranty.
ISCH DISH® Thin Pressure Relief Seat Cushion
 Pressure relief, positioning, and pain relief for those not at high risk for
pressure ulcers. A full 1.25" lower than the standard Isch-Dish. Caregiver selects
the appropriate standard small, medium, or large pocket size based on a simple
measurement of the ischial span.
Great for sensate users, including stroke and geriatric patients, and for those
with chronic sitting pain due to injury or illness. Ideal for hemi-chairs, office
chairs, and car seats. Preferred by active users in lightweight wheelchairs. Includes
support core protected by Durafilm™ incontinence-proof coating, machine washable cover, removable Sling-Fill seat base, 2-year warranty.
