Pressures ulcers can be painful and difficult to heal — and can negatively impact your quality of life. Left untreated, pressure ulcers can lead to months of bed rest and even hospitalization.
GlideWear Skin Protection Underwear are designed for people who spend much of the day sitting or lying down, especially people with reduced sensation (lack of feeling) below their waist. The GlideWear zone protects the buttocks, tailbone, coccyx, sacrum, and ischial tuberosities (“sit bones”) from the harmful friction and shear which cause pressure ulcers.
GlideWear Skin Protection Underwear use patented, dual-layer fabric technology to protect skin and reduce the friction and shear that cause pressure ulcers. Seams are very flat and strategically placed away from high-risk areas. The result is a comfortable, breathable pair of underwear that protects you from the friction and shear that cause redness, pressure ulcers, and skin breakdown.
When you buy GlideWear Skin Protection Shorts, you’re not just buying a pair of shorts. You’re buying a tool that reduces the friction and shear that cause debilitating pressure ulcers.
Pressure ulcers can be life threatening. Pressure ulcers, which often start out as red marks on bony parts of your tailbone area, can go from non-existent to debilitating in a matter of hours. They’re especially common in people with reduced sensation, including those with spinal cord injury, and seniors in long-term care, hospice, or home care.
