Description
The Axiom P is Ki Mobility's positioning cushion: one moulded foam base with a more moderate pre-contoured shape than the Axiom G and the Axiom S. Ki designed the leg troughs for medial and lateral stability, and the well envelops the ischial tuberosities and coccyx. Wheelchair cushions in this range cover most adult chairs.
Who it is for
Ki puts the Axiom P in its positioning category. It suits a wheelchair user whose seat has to hold the pelvis and thighs as well as cushion them. A seating assessment by an occupational therapist or physiotherapist picks the cushion and the size.
Which size fits the wheelchair?
Measure the wheelchair seat, not the person. The Axiom P runs 14 in to 22 in wide and deep, with 50 combinations on the maker's order form. The item number is XP plus the two measurements, so a 16 x 18 in cushion is XP1618. Send both figures on the seating quote form.
How it is built
The base is one moulded high-IFD polyurethane foam, 3.5 in (8.9 cm) high overall and 2.3 in (5.7 cm) at the leg troughs. It weighs 2.3 lbs (1 kg) and carries up to 350 lbs (158.8 kg). Ki says the hexagonal shapes in the well reduce surface tension around the ischia and coccyx.
Covers and care
The standard cover is a pleated 4-way stretch Lycra knit with a water-resistant top layer and a skid-resistant bottom panel. The incontinence resistant cover has a wipeable polyurethane contact surface. Wash the cover warm, tumble dry with no heat, and never soak the foam base. A spare cover is ordered through our service department.

Frequently asked questions
How do I measure for the Axiom P?
Measure the wheelchair seat, not the person: the cushion width and depth match the seat. Send us both figures and we confirm the item number.
Can I order a spare cover with the cushion?
Yes. The same size is ordered with a spare cover by adding C2 to the item number, or IC2 on the incontinence resistant build.
Can the cover go in the washing machine?
The cover can: wash it warm and tumble dry with no heat. The foam base is never soaked, it is wiped and air dried.
What does the maker's warranty cover?
Ki covers the cushion base for 24 months and the removable cover for 6 months from the date of purchase. Punctures, tears and burns are excluded.
