ROHO Mosaic Wheelchair Cushion
ROHO Mosaic Air Cell Wheelchair Cushion by Permobil
Anatomically Contoured Variable Height Air Cell System with Controlled Slow Airflow, 315 lb Weight Capacity, Hand Inflation Pump, and Non-Skid Stretch Cover
The ROHO Mosaic Air Cell Wheelchair Cushion delivers an accessible, clinically validated skin protection and pressure-redistribution seating solution meticulously engineered by Permobil for everyday wheelchair users. Prolonged seating creates high interface pressure at the sit bones (ischial tuberosities), tailbone (coccyx), and sacrum. Traditional foam or gel cushions redistribute pressure through static compression, which can bottom out over time and leave fragile skin vulnerable to pressure injuries. The ROHO Mosaic resolves these clinical risks, utilizing proprietary DRY FLOATATION interconnected air cell technology to submerge the body, eliminating dangerous pressure peaks across a wide contact surface.
Constructed with anatomically designed variable cell heights (2.6" central cells scaling to 3" outer cells), the cushion creates a natural pelvic bowl that promotes upright posture and lateral stability. A controlled slow airflow design between cells ensures a stable seating platform during dynamic transfers and daily movement without sacrificing pressure relief. Supporting up to 315 lbs while weighing just 0.75 lbs, this ultra-lightweight cushion comes complete with a hand inflation pump and a machine-washable stretch cover with a non-skid bottom, providing custom-calibrated comfort for home, travel, and clinical settings.
Key Features & Benefits
- DRY FLOATATION Air Cell Immersion: Interconnected air cells conform precisely to body contours, eliminating peak interface pressure at the ischial tuberosities, sacrum, and coccyx.
- Anatomically Variable Cell Heights: Features 2.6" central cells, 2.8" middle cells, and 3" outer edge cells to create a supportive pelvic bowl that encourages neutral alignment.
- Controlled Slow Airflow Platform: Redesigned airflow channels provide gentle immersion while maintaining a firm, predictable platform during transfers and wheelchair propulsion.
- 315 lb Weight Capacity Rating: Enhanced structural air matrix safely accommodates a broad range of adult wheelchair users when properly sized to the seat frame.
- Personalized Hand Pump Calibration: Includes a dedicated hand pump to allow precise, custom inflation tailored to the user's specific body weight and seated posture.
- Ultra-Lightweight 0.75 lb Profile: Adds virtually no weight to the wheelchair, making transfers between chairs, vehicles, and recliners effortless.
- Non-Skid Machine-Washable Cover: Standard stretch cover reduces shear forces during transfers while a non-skid bottom keeps the cushion anchored to the seat.
- HCPCS Code E2601 & FSA/HSA Qualified: Meets standard Medicare billing specifications and qualifies for pre-tax Flexible Spending or Health Savings Account purchases.
Equipment Specialist Insight: Proper air inflation is critical for ROHO DRY FLOATATION performance. To properly adjust the Mosaic cushion, inflate it using the hand pump, place the user on the cushion, and slide your hand under their sit bones (ischial tuberosity). Slowly open the inflation valve until you feel roughly 1/2 to 3/4 inch of air clearance between their sit bones and the cushion base. Never over-inflate, as an over-inflated air cushion behaves like a hard surface and eliminates immersion benefits.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the ROHO Mosaic and the ROHO High Profile cushion?
The ROHO Mosaic features variable cell heights between 2.6" and 3" with a 315 lb capacity, making it ideal for low-to-moderate pressure injury risk and everyday preventive care. The ROHO High Profile features taller, 4" uniform air cells with a 500 lb capacity, providing maximum deep immersion for individuals with existing pressure ulcers or high skin breakdown risk.
How do I clean and maintain the ROHO Mosaic cushion and cover?
Remove the outer stretch cover and machine wash it in cool water on a gentle cycle, then tumble dry on low heat. To clean the inner rubber air cell cushion, close the inflation valve, hand wash it in warm water using mild soap, rinse thoroughly, and air dry completely before reinserting it into the cover.
Is an inflation pump included with the cushion?
Yes. Every ROHO Mosaic cushion ships complete with a dedicated ROHO hand inflation pump, the standard non-skid stretch cover, an operating manual, and a repair patch kit.
