Abstract
Support pads for reducing the pressure exerted on some portion of the human body are disclosed. A first transparent flexible plastic sheet is bonded to a layer of four-way stretchable polyamide fabric which houses a medical-grade gel. An external surface of the four-way stretchable fabric is coated with urethane to avoid migration of the enclosed gel. This support pad exerts a pressure that is below the level producing venous stasis (0.5 psi).
