Medical Sheepskin
A recent study published in the
Medical Journal
of Australia ( 2004; 180 (7): 324-327 has concluded that The Australian Medical
Sheepskin is effective in reducing the
incidence of pressure ulcers in general
hospital inpatients at low to moderate risk of these ulcers
offer year round comfort and reduce shear, pressure, friction and
moisture known to cause pressure sores and discomfort felt by people who
spend long periods seated or lying. Wools ability to absorb moisture (
one-third of its original weight ) keeps the body dry even in hot and
humid conditions making sheepskin ideal all year round.
