Stryker Prevalon Heel Protector I – 1 Heel Protector – Cushioned Boot for Heel Pressure Relief for Bed-Bound Individuals – Standard Size

This product helps with nonhealing wounds.

My elderly mother has 2 bad sores on her foot. One has became an open wound and the other is just very sore. Her doctor told her about this and wanted her to try it. She had me order it for her sleeps with it every night now. She said it did take a little to get use to due to it's size. But where she was sliding her foot at night to cause the sores in the first place, this has helped her out a lot. It is a little pricey, but as long as she is happy and it is working, that doesn't matter. her health is the most important thing.

My pt recommended it. He was right. It helped my leg muscles.

Used boot for foot issue while sleeping. Works well, easy to put on and take off.

The pro is that this is a very cushy boot, has a long end which supports the calf and does help keep a heel pressure sore elevated if positioned correctly. The cons are that it's very expensive, there are other similar products for much less. Also, it works best if the person keeps their leg elevated, centered on the back cushion, foot at a 90 degree angle, toes pointed toward the ceiling. If the leg lays to the left or right side (like pigeon toed), it doesn't cushion as much because the leg lays into the corner seams where there is little cushion. The straps are wide but one ripped off on 2nd use after an uncooperative patient tried to pull it off.

The boot is wonderful! It does exactly what it is suppose to do by keeping the weight off of my husband’s heel. Good quality and very much worth the price. Would recommend it highly!

It’s big and bulky

Did exactly what it was designed for!
