The Wiltshire™ II is a dynamic cushion used in the prevention and treatment of pressure ulcers for patients in all categories of risk. It provides comfort and support by maintaining a good level of blood flow around the body whilst seated.

It contains 8 alternating and 6 static horizontal cells that alternatively inflate and deflate in a cylical pattern.
