Description

Skil-Care Heel-Float is a specially designed heel float boot used for treating heel ulcers, These heel boots serve as heel protection for bedridden patients. This pressure-relieving boot off-loads the heel by suspending the injured heel over an air cavity. This provides zero pressure to the heel, preventing the formation of pressure ulcers and aids in the healing of existing bed sores.

The heel protector boots include a water-based gel pack that relieves pressure beneath the ankle. The gel may be heated or cooled to provide hot/cold therapy. For heat therapy, the gel pack may be warmed in water to the desired temperature. The gel pack should not be microwaved. For cold therapy, cool the gel pack by placing it in a refrigerator. Do not freeze. The gel pack is easily accessed and removed by opening a flap at the back of the heel protector boot.

Ski-Care's Heel-Float features a new adaptable velcro strap that secures with one strap at the ankle and one at the instep, or with both straps at the ankle. The ankle/instep option should be used if the patient's foot moves rearward in the Heel-Float or if the foot moves to the left or right inside the heel float boot.

The Heel Float may be washed and dried at temperatures that do not exceed 180 degrees F (82 degrees C). Do not use chlorine bleach with the heel boot. The gel pack should be removed before laundering.
