Suspension boot with a fixed pad of latex-free foam for completely elevating the heel and redistributing pressure along the calf. Gentle cradling and cushioning of the lower leg with the heel elevated in protective space reduces the chances of irritation or pressure points, while friction-free Tricot backing and soft felt closure straps for a secure fit minimises the risk of pressure, friction and shear to the heel. Foam forefoot support allows dorsiflexion while preventing heel-cord contracture (foot drop) and external hip rotation (with the spare pad or a wedge). Can be customised to meet individual patient needs and offload other lower extremity pressure points. The soft, smooth exterior fabric allows the leg to glide from side to side, preventing it from catching on sheets and blankets, meaning fewer adjustments and less time spent reapplying the boot.
Prevention and management of heel pressure ulcers; large/small vessel disease; diabetic foot syndrome and decubitus; Braden pressure-sore risk scale ≤17; sedentary diabetic patients with neurological sensory deficit; non-palpable foot pulse; prolonged immobility or coma
