The Heart is a reusable, medical-grade arm support designed to stabilize positioningduring IV starts, blood draws, and infusions — while offering patients a calming,supportive experience.
It’s soft where patients need comfort and structured where providers need reliability.
Why Nurses and Providers Choose The Heart
Providers don’t have time for tools that slow them down.
The Heart was designed by a clinician who understood the realities of IV care — time pressure, patient anxiety, and the need for consistent positioning without extra setup.
One small tool. A noticeable difference.

Elevate care experiences with medical-grade cushions designed to provide comfort, stability, and support during medical exams, procedures, and recovery.
Used and trusted by doctors, nurses, and clinical teams nationwide for improving patient comfort while supporting smoother, more efficient workflows.
Spongies cushions are made with durable, medical-grade materials designed for repeated clinical use. They support infection-control protocols while standing up to daily use in busy care environments.

Spongies products were created to make medical procedures feel easier, calmer, and more human — without adding complexity to clinical workflows.
From IV starts to long infusions, Spongies supports better positioning, reduces workarounds, and helps care teams deliver comfort with confidence.
Made for Care Settings That Value Comfort and Efficiency
Whether you’re supporting one patient or an entire department, Spongies fits seamlessly into care.
Spongies products are designed as a cohesive system of medical-grade positioning supports — each addressing a specific clinical need while maintaining consistent standards for ergonomics, durability, and infection control.
Whether supporting venipuncture, lumbar alignment, or post-operative elevation, every product is created with the same commitment to patient-centered care and clinical precision.
Spongies are designed for healthcare environments where venipuncture, IV therapy, blood pressure measurement, and diagnostic procedures are performed. They support patients of all ages while improving provider ergonomics and positioning accuracy.
Spongies are currently used in hospitals, cancer centers, infusion clinics, IV drip clinics, and outpatient facilities.
Spongies were created by a healthcare professional to address both clinical performance and patient experience.
The Heart is ergonomically designed to elevate and stabilize the arm for more precise vein access while improving provider positioning. Its distinctive shape and soft texture also serve as a positive distraction, helping reduce patient anxiety and perceived pain during needle-related procedures.
Unlike standard pillows, Spongies are medical-grade, antimicrobial, durable, and designed specifically for clinical workflow.
Spongies are classified as positioning pillows and do not require FDA clearance.
They are manufactured using medical-grade materials appropriate for all hospital and outpatient clinical settings.
Spongies feature a Performix® medical-grade antimicrobial coating designed for clinical environments.
They can be cleaned using standard hospital disinfectants, including bleach-based solutions, in accordance with your facility’s infection control protocols.
Spongies are made from non-toxic polyurethane foam and sealed with a Performix® medical-grade coating (PDC F-874 Muraculon®), designed for durability, cleanability, and antimicrobial protection in healthcare settings.

Yes. Research in healthcare environmental design and ergonomics shows that positioning, visual comfort, and positive distraction influence patient experience, perceived pain, and clinical accuracy.
Studies have found that:
• Positive distraction and calming visual elements can reduce patient-reported pain scores by up to 30%.
• Ergonomic positioning improves procedural stability and reduces provider strain.
• Proper arm positioning significantly impacts blood pressure accuracy.
Additionally, peer-reviewed research published in PubMed (PMID: 39373998) reinforces that incorrect arm positioning during blood pressure measurement can meaningfully distort readings, underscoring the importance of proper elevation and support.
Spongies are designed in alignment with these evidence-based principles — elevating and stabilizing the arm to support both patient comfort and procedural accuracy.
Spongies are not a blood pressure measurement device. However, research clearly shows that proper arm support at heart level is essential for accurate readings.
By elevating and stabilizing the arm, Spongies help support correct positioning during blood pressure checks and other procedures requiring arm stability.
Spongies are not a pain treatment device. However, research shows that positioning, comfort, and positive distraction influence pain perception during medical procedures.
By stabilizing the arm, improving provider access, and creating a calming tactile and visual experience, Spongies support a more comfortable venipuncture experience.
Spongies are currently being evaluated in clinical settings. Early feedback from oncology and infusion departments reports:
• Improved provider ergonomics
• Increased patient comfort
• Positive patient response
• Stronger patient satisfaction scores
We welcome collaboration with facilities interested in pilot studies or patient-experience tracking.
