The RIK Fluid Overlay is a non-powered, fluid-based mattress overlay that provides pressure redistribution through immersion and envelopment.

Mobility is life. When people move, they are able to engage with their environment. Playing ball with a child, cooking a meal with friends or simply walking down the street… all these types of activities help to create meaning in our lives.

During periods of hospitalisation, facilitating mobility helps people recover faster and regain their independence to help return to life outside the hospital.

Early mobilization has been demonstrated to be both safe and feasible for patients admitted to critical care.

Early mobilization of ICU patients has been associated with improved muscle strength and functional independence, as well as a shorter duration of delirium, mechanical ventilation, and ICU length of stay.

The significance of early mobility in the rehabilitation of war veterans cannot be overstated. In fact, muscle wasting occurs early and rapidly during the first week of critical illness, with losses of up to 20% seen for those in multi organ failure.

In the pursuit of optimizing the rehabilitation journey for our esteemed veterans, the Veterans Administration (VA) has developed the Mobility Screening and Solutions Tool. This tool aims to enhance early mobilization and improve the functional outcomes of veterans.

Intensive care unit (ICU) patients frequently have extreme derangement of physiological function.
