A significant proportion of pressure ulcers occur on the heels due to a combination of pressure, friction and shear.
Whilst support surfaces assist in reducing pressure, only a specific device such as the Repose Foot Protector can ensure that pressure on the foot is relieved totally. Clinical studies have shown the heel Protectors to be effective in a wide variety of settings.
The Permapad cushion range is made from castellated foam that provides pressure redistribution for users whilst seated. The fabric covers are PU coated, multi stretch and vapour permeable. There are three sizes available to suit user requirements.
Designed to aid positioning and to off-load pressure from the heels. Particularly suited to leg elevation to aid vascular conditions and a useful aid in posture support.
The Atlas dynamic mattress system delivers pressure redistribution to those at high risk of developing pressure ulcers. The constant low pressure mode distributes patient weight evenly through the cells, providing comfort for patients unable to tolerate movement.
