What will you find in the Daily Living and Rehab Aids category?
This category brings together everyday rehabilitation aids and pressure relief products that respond to common care needs: walking support, safer grip, comfortable positioning, pressure ulcer prevention and simple exercise at home or in professional care environments.
Canes, crutches and walking support
For users who need more stability while walking, Mobilex offers canes and crutches, wooden canes, height-adjustable canes, foldable canes, elbow crutches, quad canes and blind canes. These products support everyday mobility indoors and outdoors.
Anti-slip accessories for safer daily use
Small accessories make a measurable difference in safety. Rubber feet for canes, rubber feet for crutches and winter anti-slip tips improve traction on wet, worn or icy surfaces.
Positioning and seat cushions for pressure ulcer prevention
Cushions in this group are intended for users who spend long periods lying or seated and need pressure distributed away from the sacrum, coccyx, pelvis and thighs. They are inflatable, supplied flat and ready for use within about a minute.
- All Up Universal, multifunctional positioning cushion: one cushion used under the back, under the hips or between the legs, so it replaces several conventional pads.
- Seat All Tailbone, inflatable seat cushion for coccyx pressure relief: single-patient version for seated users.
- MP Seat All Tailbone, reusable seat cushion for coccyx pressure relief: Multi-Patient version for care environments with a repeated disinfection regime.
Heel protectors for pressure ulcer prevention
The heel carries little soft tissue, so pressure concentrates there and tissue damage develops quickly. Heel protectors lift the heel clear of the mattress or footrest, which offloads the area completely rather than only redistributing pressure. An anatomical channel relieves the Achilles tendon and the side walls protect the malleoli.
- Heel Up FIX short: compact support for shorter lower legs and seated users.
- Heel Up FIX medium: standard adult length with a wide fixation strap.
- Heel Up FIX long: support extended towards the knee area.
- Heel Up FIX max: enlarged version with higher side walls, for a larger build or oedema.
- Heel Up CUT medium: forefoot cut-out for users who require forefoot access or protection.
- Heel Up AIR medium: heel protection across lying, seated and selected mobility situations.
- All Up Elbow and Heel: compact 2-in-1 protector for the elbow or the heel.
Single-patient and Multi-Patient versions
Most models are available in two versions. Single-patient products are made of PE nonwoven and washed at up to 65 degrees Celsius. Multi-Patient products are made of TPU or nylon, withstand thermal disinfection at up to 95 degrees Celsius as well as compatible chemical disinfection, and can be used for another patient after validated cleaning. Choose the single-patient version for home care and individual users, and the Multi-Patient version for hospitals, nursing homes and loan pools.
Pressure relieving mattresses, orthopedic pillows and rehabilitation aids
For users who remain in bed for long periods, the Pressure Relieving Mattress B01+P05 supports pressure redistribution across a larger body area. The Softsleep orthopedic pillow supports the neck during rest. The pedal trainer is a compact exerciser for gentle arm and leg training, and the high-pressure manual BOA pump is available as an accessory for selected inflatable products.
How to choose the right product?
1. Match walking support to the user’s stability needs
A standard cane may be enough for light support. A quad cane offers a wider base for users who need extra stability. An elbow crutch transfers more load through the arm. Check height adjustment, handle comfort, user strength and the surfaces used most often, and replace worn rubber tips.
2. Choose pressure relief according to the body area at risk
Select the product according to where pressure is concentrated and how long the user stays in one position. For long periods in bed, a pressure relieving mattress supports redistribution across a larger area. For wheelchair or chair users, a seat cushion improves pressure distribution under the pelvis, coccyx and thighs. For the heel, offloading is the approach recommended in international pressure ulcer prevention guidelines, because even a high-specification mattress cannot always protect an area with such a small contact surface.
3. Decide between single-patient and Multi-Patient
The decision depends on the hygiene regime rather than on the clinical need. If the product stays with one user, the single-patient version is sufficient. If the device moves between patients, choose the Multi-Patient version and follow the disinfection procedure in the instructions for use.
4. Check handling and daily routine
Inflatable products should remain soft and flexible after inflation. A hard cushion does not provide optimal pressure relief. Skin condition, device position and air volume should be checked daily according to the care plan, and all pressure relief products should be used according to the instructions for use and the product label.

FAQ
When should I choose a seat cushion for pressure relief?
When the user spends long periods seated, especially in a wheelchair or rehabilitation chair, and pressure concentrates around the coccyx, pelvis and thighs.
What are heel protectors used for?
They lift the heel clear of the supporting surface, which removes pressure from one of the areas most exposed to tissue damage in users who lie down for long periods or sit with the heels resting on a footrest.
What is the difference between single-patient and Multi-Patient versions?
The material and the hygiene regime. Single-patient products are made of PE nonwoven for one user. Multi-Patient products are made of TPU or nylon, withstand disinfection at up to 95 degrees Celsius and may be reused for another patient after validated cleaning.
Can one product cover all pressure ulcer prevention needs?
No. Pressure care combines correct positioning, regular skin checks, suitable cushions or mattresses, heel offloading and professional assessment. Products should be selected according to the user’s condition and used as described in the instructions for use.
