What our Experts Think  

• The Mölnlycke Z-Flo Pediatric Fluidized Positioner Kit (1400401) is a multi-size clinical positioning system designed for pediatric and small adult patients requiring pressure redistribution and precise anatomical support in hospital care.
• Uses fluidized bead (“Floam”) technology that conforms to body contours and maintains molded shapes to support stable, pressure-reducing positioning.
• Includes multiple pediatric-compatible positioners (various dimensions) to allow clinicians to adapt support for head, limbs, torso, or full-body alignment needs.
• Helps reduce pressure, friction, and shear forces, supporting prevention of pressure injuries in sensitive pediatric and neonatal skin.
• Highly moldable and re-moldable design allows repeated adjustment as patient positioning needs change over time.
• Provides stable “nesting” and containment positioning, improving alignment, comfort, and care consistency in pediatric environments.
• Designed for single-patient clinical use, commonly used in hospitals, pediatric wards, and NICU-adjacent care settings.
• Works without losing shape like foam or pillows, maintaining consistent support until intentionally re-shaped by clinicians

                 
Q&A  

Q: What is the Mölnlycke Z-Flo Pediatric Fluidized Positioner Kit (1400401)?
A: The Mölnlycke Z-Flo 1400401 is a pediatric fluidized positioning kit designed for hospital use, providing moldable, pressure-redistributing support to help maintain safe and stable positioning for pediatric patients.

Q: What is it used for?
A: It is used in pediatric care to reduce pressure points, support proper body alignment, and help prevent pressure injuries in children requiring prolonged positioning in clinical settings.

Q: How does it work?
A: The kit uses a fluidized medium of microspheres and viscous material inside a sealed cover that can be manually molded to the patient’s body shape. Once shaped, it retains its form to provide continuous support and can be remolded as needed.

Q: What are its key benefits?
A: It helps redistribute pressure over a larger surface area, minimize shear and friction, and create customized “nesting” support for pediatric patients with changing clinical needs.

Q: What makes it different from standard pillows or foam supports?
A: Unlike foam or pillows, the Z-Flo positioner does not flatten, shift easily, or lose its molded shape, making it more stable and adaptable for clinical positioning.

Q: Is it reusable?
A: Yes, it is typically used for single-patient use but can be repeatedly reshaped throughout the course of care as positioning requirements change.
