These 45-degree anatomical wedges provide steep lateral tilt positioning for patients who require aggressive offloading of the sacrum and other high-risk bony prominences. The 45-degree angle is designed to facilitate stable, consistent positioning during regular interval turning cycles, effectively redistributing weight to reduce the risk of skin breakdown in immobile patients.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"2\"\u003eThe BridgeSTAR™ repositioning wedges offer targeted support for various body types, ensuring stability throughout the repositioning cycle. Each wedge is constructed with a medical-grade, vapor-permeable cover that is moisture-resistant yet breathable, helping to manage the microclimate of the skin. The non-skid bottom material ensures the wedge remains securely in place against the bed linens, reducing the need for frequent manual readjustments by nursing staff and enhancing overall patient comfort and safety.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"4,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"4,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003e45-Degree Incline Angle:\u003c\/b\u003e Engineered to provide a steeper lateral tilt for maximum sacral offloading in specialized clinical positioning protocols.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"4,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"4,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eHigh-Density Support Core:\u003c\/b\u003e Constructed from medical-grade foam that provides firm, consistent support without bottoming out over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"4,2,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"4,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eMoisture-Resistant Cover:\u003c\/b\u003e Features a vapor-permeable, wipeable surface that protects the foam core from fluids while remaining gentle on patient skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"4,3,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"4,3,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eNon-Skid Stability:\u003c\/b\u003e Integrated non-slip base prevents migration during patient movement, ensuring consistent positioning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"4,4,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"4,4,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eCompact 17\" Format:\u003c\/b\u003e Designed for targeted support, allowing for precise placement under the thoracic or pelvic regions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIdeal Clinical Applications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003ePressure Injury Prevention:\u003c\/b\u003e Used as a primary intervention for patients at high risk of developing skin breakdown due to immobility.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eInterval Repositioning:\u003c\/b\u003e Ideal for implementing \"Turn Every 2 Hours\" protocols in ICU, long-term care, and med-surg environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6,2,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003ePost-Surgical Stability:\u003c\/b\u003e Provides necessary lateral support for patients recovering from procedures requiring specific, steep-angled positioning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBrand: BridgeSTAR™ (Bridge Healthcare)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eProduct Type: Turning\/Repositioning Wedge\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDimensions: 17\" x 8\" x 8\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIncline Angle: 45 Degrees\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMaterial: High-Density Foam with Vapor-Permeable Cover\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePackaging\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBridgeSTAR™ Turning\/Repositioning Wedges, 45 Degree, 17\"x8\"x8\", 12\/cs\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eImportant Safety Information\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo view the most current and up-to-date manufacturer's product information, please click \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/bridgehcusa.com\/safe-patient-handling\/bridgestar\/\" title='PS-W34127 PELSTAR\/HEALTH O METER PROFESSIONAL SCALE - BRIDGE HEALTHCARE - BRIDGESTAR™ TURNING\/REPOSITIONING WEDGES BridgeSTAR™ Wedge, 30 Degree, 34\" x 12\" x 7\", 12\/cs' rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ehere.\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"13\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eContraindications\u003c\/b\u003e Do not use this product for patients with unstable spinal fractures or other medical conditions where lateral positioning is clinically restricted.
