Using a standard sized pillow with a Reflux Wedge can sometimes lead to a person not being able to position themselves high enough on the Wedge, which reduces its effectiveness in preventing reflux. The Pillow – Adjustable Trisection is designed to enable people to position themselves higher up a Reflux Wedge. The three sections can have different amounts of filling for individual people, and the Hollow-Core Polyester Fibre filling is non-allergenic, soft, and cool next to the head.
Key Features
- Adjustable filling in three sections for personalised comfort.
- Hollow-Core Polyester Fibre filling that is non-allergenic.
- Outer Covers available for use as a pillowcase.
- Zip along the long edge for easy filling adjustment.
Additional Information
To use, the filling is supplied in a separate bag, allowing the user to fill the three sections to individual requirements. For people sleeping on their back, less filling is needed in the middle section, but more filling is needed when sleeping on their side. Experiment with the amount of filling and adjust as necessary.
Also available to use with the Reflux Wedge: Non-Slide Bed Pad: Designed to help prevent people from sliding down a Reflux Wedge. Soft foam with a breathable, moisture-wicking nylon cover with convoluted foam in the raised section to aid blood circulation.
