Frequently asked questions
How does the heel offloading device prevent pressure ulcers?
The heel offloading device completely eliminates pressure exerted on the heel by keeping it suspended. The ALOVA viscoelastic foam distributes the weight of the leg over a larger surface area, preventing prolonged compression of blood vessels at this bony prominence.
Is this heel offloading device suitable for patients who are bedbound for long periods?
Yes, it is designed for extended use in sitting or lying positions. Its high density foam of 90 kg/m³ retains its properties over time. The removable cover allows regular cleaning for multi-patient use in hospital or home care settings.
How to choose the right size of heel offloading device?
This model has a leg segment of 41 cm, suitable for most adults. The viscoelastic foam adapts to different body types. For patients of small stature or children, a model with a shorter leg segment may be more appropriate.
