Aquilla Wheelchair Air Cushion

Testimonials

	So far we are absolutely thrilled with the cushion. Charley has used it 6 full days, and I have kept careful track of the depth of his ulcer. It has actually healed .6 centimeters every two days, even with him siting on his cushion for 12 hours. He is back to work. Marty Bittle My sore was as large as a dime and a quarter inch deep and getting deeper and larger day by day. It was at this point , Stage I or II when we went to the doctor. He prescribed immediate and total bed rest until healed. That’s when we discovered your web page and the attached testimonials and also when we began the ordering process. A few days passed and we received the cushion and began using it immediately. We didn’t do ANY bed rest and SIX WEEKS LATER THE WOUND/SORE WAS GONE COMPLETELY! We were amazed then as we are to this day! Dale Berven

	The Airpulse played a key role in helping my pressure sores to heal. Now I'm still using the cushion for prevention and "more energy". I never realized just how important good circulation really is and the difference that a Wheelchair Cushion can make I hope the medical industry comes around and sees the advantages of good circulation and the important role it plays in wound healing, instead of the big emphasis that is placed on staying off pressure sores for them to heal. Thank you, Dave & Maria
	Seven years ago a motorcycle accident left me paralyzed. I spent many hours each day in my wheelchair, and shifting positions every 15-20 minutes is not always possible, especially when I am concentrating on what I love to do best, tig welding. I was in constant pain and discomfort using a gel pad. I've suffered with pressure sores and it looked as though I would have to go back to the hospital for surgery. Since I've been using the Airpulse cushion the pressure sores have been healing nicely and I am pain free and finally feel comfortable in my wheelchair. The constant movement of the cushion does the job that I am not always able to do. I just wish I had your cushion from the beginning. Thank you Aquila! Roger Horvath
	Many times I have told you how much I appreciate your efforts. Once again I am deeply indebted to you for your thoughtfulness and persistence as you worked to help me to attempt to solve my special problems. I sincerely appreciate your willingness to customize the Airpulse cushion in an effort to meet my special needs. The warm Nevada climate exaggerates the tendency for a wheelchair cushion to create a warm moist environment that produces almost constant skin irritation and makes wheelchair users exceptionally susceptible to yeast and fungal infections. The custom blower you installed for me helps to remove that heat load and has made my life more comfortable. Of course even without the blower, the changing pressure points make the Airpulse cushion a more desirable seating system than any other options available.
	My mother-in-law, Agnes Keating, suffered a stroke several years ago and as a result, half her body is paralyzed. She is unable to walk, has limited movement and suffers from extreme sciatic nerve and arthritic pain. Before we purchased the Airpulse, she would only be in her wheel chair for an hour when extreme pain would force her back into bed. I searched high and low for a product to relieve her pain without luck, until I found Aquila Corp. on the World Wide Web. Now with the Airpulse alternating pressure pad, Agnes is able to last 2 to 5 hours in a sitting position. This has made a big difference in her life, allowing us to take her on short trips away from the 24-hour care nursing facility. Agnes is a wonderful woman with a great sense of humor, and when asked to comment on her Airpulse unit she said, "My rear thanks you!" I think that says it all. Thank you Aquila Corp. for making a big difference in my mother-in-law's quality of life. Mark Annati Thank you for all the work and upgrades - much appreciated.

I bought the seat late 03 in San Antonio. It’s not great....it’s a miracle! You have no idea.....
After 31 years as a partial C3, C4-C5 quad, I am sitting on a stage 4 breakdown for 8 hours a healing back to stage 2.
Where 10-14 hours sitting time possible means life + employment + limited travel......
Imagine that I don’t have to return to bed for 2-4 days because I sat for more than 4 hours.

WOW!!!

To Whom It May Concern:

I’d like to take a moment to thank you for making such a quality product that has completely changed the way I’ve been able to live my life. After being on the two "top name" brands of cushions without any success and developing a pressure sore, I needed extensive reconstructive surgery to my buttocks. After the surgery my insurance purchased me another "air bubble cushion" that was suppose to be the greatest thing with different "bubble cells "but it just didn’t help and I was limited to just a few hours sitting up before needing to lay back down in bed to get pressure relief. That was when I discovered the Airpulse PK cushion made by AQUILA Corporation. The Airpulse PK has totally and completely changed my life from the length of time I can stay sitting to the color my skin after getting back in bed.

The Airpulse PK, to me its worth it’s weight in GOLD to me!

			I have only recently started to use the Aquila alternating air pressure wheelchair seat cushion. During my 40 years of needing a power wheelchair for mobility I have found it necessary to seek out solutions for pressure relief as my sitting tolerance changed over the years. Over the past several years I experienced great frustration and disappointment in trying to find a product that would enable me to safely use my wheelchair without needing to exercise an extreme level of diligence in order to prevent skin breakdowns. Thankfully, the Aquila Corp. has developed this product that now "is saving my hide". While learning about the Aquila seat cushion I read several testimonials on the web site. All of these were encouraging and informational. However, this seat cushion has solved a problem that may be unique to my situation of functioning in a climate of rather extreme changes in altitude. The Roho air cushion *was* the only cushion that I was able to use but that also created allot of worry for me and work for my caregivers. I live in New Mexico and when I travel I can encounter in altitude variation of 3000 ft. within a few hours. This change in altitude and barometric pressure causes inflation and deflation that must be constantly monitored. The lower atmospheric pressure at high altitudes causes any air inflated item to expand and, conversely, going from a high altitude to a lower one compresses the air and deflates the cushion. But now I no longer have to worry about this. I can travel from seashore to mountaintop in safety. And for those who need to use their cushion when traveling by airplane, the constant state pressure system of the Aquila cushion solves the problems caused by pressurized cabins.
