Patient-Specific Sizing Tips

2. Strategic Placement for Maximum Leak Prevention

Core Placement Principles

Proper positioning ensures the pad’s absorbent core targets high-risk areas:

  • Hip Alignment: Center the pad so its thickened SAP layer sits beneath the patient’s hips and buttocks—the primary source of fluid discharge. This increases absorption speed by 30%.
  • Edge Clearance: Leave 5-10CM of bed surface exposed on all sides to prevent bunching, which can reduce absorption efficiency by 30%.
  • Waterproof Layer Orientation: Always place the pad with the PE film facing down to create an impenetrable barrier between the mattress and leaks.

Transfer-Friendly Placement

  • Pre-Transfer Setup: Slide a Slide Sheet With Handles over the pad to enable smooth lateral transfers without displacing the pad. This reduces repositioning time by 50%.
  • Post-Transfer Checks: After moving the patient, smooth out any wrinkles to maintain 95% surface contact with the bed, ensuring uniform protection.

3. Secure the Pad to Eliminate Shifting Risks

Fixing Techniques for Stability

Unsecured pads can compromise protection. Use these methods to keep them in place:

  • Elastic Straps (Reusable Pads): Built-in straps anchor the pad to bed frames, reducing movement by 85%during patient turns.
  • Adhesive Backing (Disposable Pads): Peel-and-stick edges provide instant stability in emergency settings, saving 30 seconds per bed compared to traditional tucking.
  • Sheet Tucking: For home care, tuck excess pad material tightly under the mattress to create a snug fit, ideal for beds without built-in anchor points.

Data Insight:
Pads secured with elastic straps showed 5x less displacement in a 2024 study, directly correlating to a 28% reduction in leakage incidents.

4. Layer with Complementary Products for Holistic Care

Building an Efficient Protection System

Weston pads work seamlessly with other ergonomic solutions:

  • Transfer + Protection Combo: Place a Patient Transfer Sheet with Handles over the pad to facilitate safe repositioning while maintaining leak control. This combo reduces caregiver strain by 42%.
  • Bariatric Care Bundle: For patients over 100kg, use a 90X120CM pad with Bariatric Transfer Sheets With Grips to combine heavy-duty absorption with secure transfers, supporting up to 120kg peak loads.
  • Post-Surgery Care: Layer a sterile disposable pad with a Portable Medical Bed Pad(200gsm absorbency) to cut linen changes by 40% during recovery.

5. Hygienic Removal and Disposal Protocols

Infection Control Made Simple

Proper disposal is key to preventing cross-contamination:

  • Gloved Handling: Always wear PPE when removing soiled pads to avoid direct contact with bodily fluids, adhering to CDC guidelines.
  • Roll-and-Dispose Method: Roll the pad inward, containing contaminants, and dispose in biohazard bags. Disposable pads reduce HAI risks by 60%versus reusable alternatives.
  • Reusable Pad Care: Machine wash at 60°Cwith bleach to achieve a 9% microbial kill rate, ensuring pads remain sterile for up to 100 wash cycles.
