When One Seating Approach Isn't Enough

Orbiter Med brings together two components of custom seating:

Individualized Foam Support

  • The cushion is fabricated around the individual’s measurements and clinical needs.

  • Its foam structure includes a soft top layer, air cells positioned between the foam layers, a base layer, and a pelvic well.

  • Clinicians can specify additional supports and modifications based on the user’s presentation.

Advanced Pressure Management System

  • Strategically positioned air cells work with the Advanced Pressure Management System (APMS) control box.

  • Machine learning analyzes pressure information and automatically adjusts the air system toward clinician-prescribed levels.

  • The Kalogon app allows clinicians to configure the system and personalize settings for the individual.

Together, the custom cushion and APMS provide both individualized postural support and adaptive pressure management.

Functional Benefits

Depending on the individual’s presentation, clinicians can use Orbiter Med to address:

Pressure Management

  • Use APMS to establish and maintain prescribed pressure settings

  • Kalogon’s APMS technology is designed to support tissue revascularization and maintain blood flow in high-risk areas

 

Individualized Postural Support

  • Customize the cushion’s shape and supports around the user’s anatomy and positioning needs.

 

Changing Activities

  • Create different presets for activities or seating environments that require different pressure-management settings.

  • Through the Kalogon app, clinicians can create up to 10 personalized presets.

  • Each preset can establish recommended pressure levels for a specific seating situation.

  • Once configured, presets can be saved for ongoing use.

 

Movement Throughout the Day

  • Allow the system to respond automatically as the user moves, leans, or shifts.

  • The system responds to movement in real time to help maintain pressure-management settings as the user shifts throughout the day.

 

Environmental Changes

  • Ambient sensing allows the air system to respond to changes in environmental pressure and temperature.

  • The system detects air loss and provides alerts.

  • If air loss occurs, Orbiter Med can automatically inflate to compensate.

  • APMS responds to environmental changes, including changes in temperature and pressure, to help maintain prescribed settings.

 

Complex Custom Seating Situations

  • Kalogon also works with clinicians on custom seating applications beyond the order form. For more information contact us at 321-465-4504 to get in touch with a representative.
