Heelift Suspension Boots are designed to protect the patient’s foot and lower limb whilst in bed or resting. The heel is cutaway to specifically prevent heel pressure ulcers. However, they are extensively used to protect high pressure areas in the rest of the foot and lower limb. Also useful for patients wearing Total Contact Casts for protecting the opposing limb. Smooth foam design is ideal for patients with oedematous legs as it will not create “impressions” on the leg. They can be washed (60°C) or autoclaved for sterility. The Heelift Glide has a soft, smooth fabric cover which allows the leg to “glide” from one side to the other so that it does not get caught on the bed sheet or cover. Patients can easily turn in bed.
