Heel guard helps prevent foot drop and sores on heels from contact with bedding.
Adjustable foam elevation block alleviates pressure on the heel. Soft outer lining allows for firm attachment of ankle and foot drop straps and reduces friction against bed sheets. Foam foot support straps aid in the prevention of foot drop. The straps can be crisscrossed over the foot for maximum foot drop support or attached down the side to minimize contact with the foot. Soft foam ankle straps provide additional comfort and adjustability for different size patients. High-resilience foam provides padding to prevent bruising from incidental contact, promotes air circulation and dissipates heat. Single patient use. One per package. 16"L x 11"H
