A combined cushion and protective covering for a patient support having a patient-supporting surface comprises a central section having length and width dimensions corresponding substantially to corresponding dimensions of the support surface. Flaps which are unitary with the central section extend from the side edges of the central section a distance beyond the side edges of the support surface. The flaps are thinner than the central section so as to depend from the central section and lie alongside the patient- supporting surface. The central section and the flaps are formed simultaneously by compressing a block of cushioning material in such manner that the central section forms a pad or cushion unitarily joined at its opposite sides to the flaps. During the compression of the block to form the central pad and the flaps the external surfaces of the pad and flaps are heated to an extent sufficient to enable the surfaces of the pad and flaps to form a smooth, moisture proof skin.
L'invention concerne un coussin et une housse de protection combinés pour un support de patient ayant une surface de support de patient, comportant une section centrale ayant une longueur et une largeur correspondant sensiblement à celles de la surface de support. Des rabats qui sont solidaires de la section centrale s'étendent des bords latéraux de la section centrale sur une certaine distance au-delà des bords latéraux de la surface de support. Les rabats sont plus fins que la section centrale de manière à dépendre de la section centrale et reposent le long de la surface de support du patient. La section centrale et les rabats sont formés simultanément par compression d'un bloc de matériau de rembourrage de manière à ce que la section centrale forme un matelas ou coussin joint aux rabats de manière solidaire au niveau de ses côtés opposés. Au cours de la compression du bloc pour former le matelas central et les rabats, les surfaces extérieures du matelas et des rabats sont suffisamment chauffées pour permettre aux surfaces du matelas et des rabats de former une enveloppe lisse et étanche à l'humidité.
