Z-Flo™ Fluidized Positioner Adult, 25 x 36 in, 1/cs

Please note: All prices are for cases.

Mölnlycke® Z-Flo™ Fluidized Positioners (1401005) are highly specialized medical tools designed to provide custom anatomical offloading and pressure redistribution for adult patients. Utilizing a patented fluidized medium—a combination of viscous fluid, microspheres, and polyethylene beads—these positioners feature "Zero Memory" technology. This allows the device to be molded by hand into a specific shape that mirrors the patient’s anatomy and holds that shape indefinitely until remolded, providing far more stable and therapeutic support than traditional foam wedges or pillows.

The large 25" x 36" dimensions provide extensive surface coverage, making this unit ideal for full-torso support, pelvic stability, or complex lower extremity positioning. Because the fluidized material does not react to gravity or shift over time, it maintains a consistent "micro-mold" that reduces peak stresses on vulnerable tissue. This format is particularly effective for managing the positioning needs of bariatric patients or those requiring significant stabilization during prolonged clinical procedures.

Key Features

• Fluidized Conformational Positioning: Moldable medium conforms to any anatomical shape and remains in place without "flowing" or shifting due to gravity.

• Zero Memory Technology: Once molded to a specific shape or divot, the positioner holds that form until a clinician manually remolds it.

• Large 25" x 36" Dimensions: Provides comprehensive support for larger anatomical regions, including the back, hips, and full length of the legs.

• Pressure and Shear Reduction: Engineered to maximize surface contact area, effectively minimizing the force and friction that lead to pressure injuries.

• Diagnostic Compatibility: The positioner is MR Safe and safe for use in CT; it can be used during X-ray, though imaging through the device should be minimized to avoid distortion.

Ideal Clinical Applications

• Full-Body Stabilization: Used to provide stable lateral or prone support for patients in intensive care or long-term recovery settings.

• Complex Lower Extremity Offloading: Ideal for "floating" both heels simultaneously or providing cushioned support for the entire lower half of the body.

• Bariatric Support: The large surface area is specifically suited for distributing weight across a broader surface in larger patient populations.

Contraindications Do not use this product on patients or users with a known hypersensitivity to the polyurethane film or internal fluidized components. Do not autoclave or microwave this device.

Warnings & Precautions CAUTION: A positioner cover or linen must be used between the patient's skin and the positioner at all times during use. Patients must be properly supervised and monitored in healthcare facilities when using positioners; do not allow patients to lie face down on the positioner unless closely monitored due to the risk of suffocation.

Replace the product promptly if it is punctured or damaged. If a puncture occurs, place the positioner in a sealed plastic bag immediately to avoid spillage of the contents, which may create a slip and fall hazard. If contents spill, clean the area with a degreaser. When molding the product, do not use fingernails and avoid wearing rings with raised or sharp edges to prevent accidental punctures.

This device is for single patient use only but can travel with the patient across different levels of care. When soiled, clean the positioner surface with a hospital-approved disinfectant; do not submerge. If the product loses its ability to hold a molded shape over time, it should be discarded and replaced.
