PROSTHETIC DEVICE FOR TREATMENT OF PRESSURE SORES

摘要

The device comprises a resilient pad of a sandwich-type construction. A cushion layer (12) of carbon fibre material is sandwiched between, and relatively resilient in compression with, a pair of support layers (10, 11) also of carbon fibre material. Preferably at least one additional support layer is provided with the cushion layer, the cushion layer thereby being divided into two or more sub-layers.
