About the HARMONY Cushion
The HARMONY Cushion combines an AIR FLOATATION Cushion Overlay and a contoured foam
base. By combining the characteristics of the original ROHO DRY FLOATATION
with a contoured foam base, the HARMONY Cushion enhances skin protection, positioning,
mobility, and comfort. Tissue protection focuses on your ischia, sacrum, and coccyx, while
stability and positioning are targeted at the pelvis and thighs. An easily accessible valve allows
you to adjust the cushion insert, and a fluid-resistant, antimicrobial cover combines fluid pro-
tection with breathability.
To avoid the hazards identified below, check your cushion daily to determine
that the cushion is properly adjusted and in proper working order.
DEFLATION:
Loss of air in cushion can result in bottoming out (see below),
eliminating (if not immediately fixed) the characteristics of the cushion that assist
in healing and preventing ischemic ulcers. It is your responsibility to check the
cushion daily or have it checked and to use the cushion appropriately.
BOTTOMING OUT:
your lowest bony prominence to touch the cushion base. This decreases the ther-
apeutic value of the cushion and could result in skin breakdown (ischemic ulcers).
Product should be adjusted so approximately 1/2" - 1" of air is maintained
between the AIR FLOATATION cushion overlay and your lowest bony prominence.
DO NOT:
• expose cushion to pins or sharp objects.
• expose cushion or cover to hot ashes or any open flames.
• use the air valve as a handle.
• use oil based lotion or lanolin on your cushion.
• use the cushion as a water flotation device.
• autoclave cushion because closed valve may increase internal pressure and
cause cushion to rupture.
Please contact The ROHO Group or your nearest Rehabilitation Technology Supplier or dis-
tributor immediately if deflation or bottoming out that you cannot remedy is occurring for
any reason.
