A patient wants to sit up in a chair and read a book, but first needs to wait for the nursing assistant to bring a pressure-reduction device. Which pressure-reduction device would be the best option for this situation?

A special cushion is designed to reduce pressure while a person is sitting in a chair. A special bed is used while lying down, and a bed cradle keeps bedding off the body. Heel and elbow elevators protect specific areas rather than providing pressure reduction for sitting.
