Foot Protectors are a unique product designed specifically to minimise the risk of pressure damage to heels. A significant proportion of pressure ulcers occur on the heels due to a combination of pressure and friction/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.

Indicated to minimise risk of pressure damage to heels

    • Studies found… “a significant improvement in skin condition and comfort (p<0.0001)” (5)
    • And also… “A reduction in incidence of heel pressure ulceration from 17% to 0%” (6)
    • May be used in bed or with feet elevated, easily secured with stocking or light bandage
    • Can be used with other dynamic or static support surfaces
    • Reduces impact of pressure, friction and shear
