The risks associated with sacral sitting include skin breakdown at the coccyx and thoracic regions, falls from the wheelchair, poor sitting tolerance, and loss of functional abilities. A wedge cushion helps by positioning the pelvis in an anterior tilt with the knees slightly higher than the hips. This improved sitting posture decreases pressure on the sacrum and coccyx, and encourages improved breathing, better head control, and better positioning for self-feeding. Wedge cushions can also be used to keep users' hips properly positioned at 90º when seated in a reclined position.\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"prop65\" style=\"margin-top:25px; margin-bottom:25px;\"\u003e California's Proposition 65\u003c\/div\u003e ","brand":"AliMed","offers":[{"title":"Basic Wedge, 14\"W x 14\"D, Vinyl Cover #1287","offer_id":32969779544107,"sku":"1287","price":78.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2559\/5644\/products\/260_1000x1000-pad_fe172a99-05d9-4e32-b767-a1e37bd0e3a5.jpg?v=1604187107","url":"https:\/\/www.devineexpress.com\/products\/alimed-basic-wedge-basic-wedge-14w-x-14d-vinyl-cover-1287","provider":"Devine Express","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
