Effective pressure ulcer protection. Practical, affordable, and ready to use immediately.

Effective skin protection for decubitus patients with innovative technology!
This fitted sheet for decubitus prophylaxis has been specially designed to reduce pressure points in bedridden individuals while providing maximum comfort. Thanks to high-quality materials and state-of-the-art technical textiles – Made in Germany – it ensures optimal pressure distribution and promotes skin health. Perfect for use in home care and nursing facilities.

The Lascara® fitted sheet is an innovative product that visibly alleviates the suffering of frequently ill, bedridden people.

The special textile structure and material combination of the Lascara® fitted sheet ensure fewer points of contact between the sheet and the skin of bedridden patients. The sheet's special surface structure prevents shear forces and significantly reduces pressure points. Furthermore, the material has a cooling effect and prevents perspiration. Thanks to the special fabric, movement is facilitated, significantly improving lying comfort. The lower friction resistance also simplifies patient handling. The Lascara® fitted sheet is used as a preventative measure for Category I pressure ulcers. In conjunction with pressure relief measures, it can also be used for Category II pressure ulcers.

detailed information

This is how Lascara® bed sheets protect against pressure sores.

The special textile structure and material construction of the sheet ensure fewer points of contact and fewer contact surfaces between the skin and the sheet, thus reducing the risk of pressure ulcers.

More about the bed sheet

What is a pressure ulcer and how does it develop?

A decubitus ulcer (also known as a pressure ulcer or bedsore) is a localized injury to the skin and/or the underlying tissue. These injuries can be caused by prolonged pressure, often as a result of lying in the same position for an extended period of time.

to the details

An anti-decubitus bed sheet and an anti-decubitus mattress pursue the same goal – pressure relief to prevent pressure ulcers – but differ significantly in their effectiveness, area of application, and cost. Here are the main advantages of a bed sheet compared to a mattress:

Advantages of a sheet over a mattress

Cheaper to purchase

A special bed sheet with a sliding or pressure-relieving function costs significantly less than a full-fledged mattress or alternating pressure systems.

Easy to use

  • Easy to attach, just like a normal lake.
  • No electricity, no motor, no pumps
  • It can be changed or washed quickly.

Especially practical in home care.

A good addition for mobile people

Sheets are well suited for:

  • low-risk patients
  • People who are still partially able to move on their own
  • Situations where only slight pressure relief is needed

A mattress often provides more relief, but is not always necessary for these people.

Useful for changing positions and transfers

Anti-decubitus sheets are also called sliding or repositioning sheets.
This makes it easier for caregivers to move the person → less friction and shear forces, which also helps prevent pressure sores.

Flexible and mobile

Ideal for travel, short stays or as a temporary solution, as they are easy to transport and can be used anywhere.

This is how Lascara protects!

  • Prevents pressure sores

    Thanks to the sheet’s excellent gliding properties, shear forces (friction between skin layers) are reduced. For Lascara®, a static friction coefficient of 0.32 was determined. Compared to a standard sheet, this value is relatively low, indicating effective decubitus prophylaxis.

  • Cooling and breathable

    For protection against decubitus, good air circulation around the vulnerable parts of the body is essential. Any sweat that develops must be effectively wicked away to prevent moisture build-up. The cooling properties of the material help to significantly reduce perspiration.

  • Easier mobilization

    The smooth surface makes it easier for patients to move independently in bed. Shifting of the skin layers is significantly reduced.

    For caregivers, patient care is simplified, as the surface offers much less resistance than a conventional sheet.

Tried and tested in practice: That's what a care facility says from everyday use.

"Parallel to the development of the fitted sheets for anti-decubitus prevention by the company Delius, several seniors in our facility had the opportunity to test the alternative comfort during an initial trial period lasting several weeks. In addition to the purely qualitative aspects of feel and appearance, the product proved particularly convincing with regard to the users’ sleep quality. Beyond its prophylactic effect in preventing skin damage, the residents reported a pleasantly cooling sensation and could imagine using the Delius fitted sheet long-term – not only from the perspective of prevention. For us, as operators of a nursing home, the pilot project left a consistently positive impression."
