Medline Disposable Pillows - Flame-Resistant Polyester Fill for Healthcare Facilities (Multiple Sizes)

Single-Use Infection Control Solution for Patient Care

Medline Disposable Pillows are engineered to minimize cross-contamination risks in acute care environments, providing healthcare facilities with a hygienic, single-use bedding solution that supports infection prevention protocols. These medical-grade pillows combine patient comfort with clinical safety, making them essential inventory for emergency departments, operating rooms, recovery areas, and patient transport services.

Advanced Safety Features for Clinical Environments

• Flame-Resistant Construction: Manufactured with flame-resistant garnetted polyester fill that meets stringent healthcare fire safety standards, providing critical protection in oxygen-rich clinical environments and reducing facility liability
• Hygienic Single-Use Design: Eliminates laundering costs, cross-contamination risks, and the logistical burden of reusable pillow management while ensuring every patient receives a fresh, uncontaminated pillow
• Durable Olefin Ticking: White olefin fabric cover resists tearing and maintains structural integrity throughout patient use, ensuring consistent support and appearance
• Sustainable Fill Material: Partially recycled polyester fill supports environmental stewardship initiatives while maintaining clinical performance standards and patient comfort
• Garnetted Polyester Technology: Specialized fiber processing creates uniform loft distribution, preventing clumping and ensuring consistent head and neck support throughout the pillow's service life

Comprehensive Size and Weight Options

Available in five distinct configurations to accommodate diverse patient populations and clinical applications:

• Standard Adult (18" x 24" Medium Weight): Ideal for general inpatient care, emergency departments, and recovery rooms
• Compact Adult (16" x 22" Lightweight): Perfect for transport gurneys, pediatric applications, and space-constrained care areas
• Pediatric/Travel (12" x 16" Lightweight): Designed for pediatric patients, neonatal care, and positioning applications
• Premium Adult (21" x 27" Medium Weight): Enhanced dimensions for extended patient stays and superior comfort
• Bariatric/Specialty (21" x 27" Heavyweight): Increased fill density for bariatric patients and applications requiring additional support

Clinical Applications and Benefits

Emergency Department Excellence: Rapid patient turnover demands infection control solutions that eliminate laundering delays. These disposable pillows ensure immediate availability while reducing pathogen transmission risks during high-volume emergency care.

Operating Room Readiness: Flame-resistant properties make these pillows suitable for perioperative positioning and post-anesthesia recovery, where oxygen concentrations and electrical equipment create elevated fire risks.

Patient Transport Safety: Lightweight construction and multiple size options facilitate comfortable, safe patient transport between departments, facilities, and during ambulance transfers.

Isolation and Infection Control: Single-use design is critical for patients in isolation precautions, eliminating the risk of pathogen persistence that can occur with reusable bedding despite proper laundering protocols.

Operational and Financial Advantages

• Eliminates laundry processing costs, labor, utilities, and equipment maintenance associated with reusable pillow programs
• Reduces inventory management complexity by eliminating tracking, sorting, and redistribution of laundered pillows
• Minimizes storage space requirements compared to bulk reusable pillow inventories
• Supports regulatory compliance documentation for infection prevention audits and accreditation surveys
• Provides predictable per-patient costs that simplify budgeting and cost-per-case calculations
