Heavy, big, complicated medical devices can be a struggle for clients and caregivers. Especially when they need to use them or work with them on a daily basis. Therefore the Maxxcare Heel Pro Evolution is a lightweight solution. With less than 0.1kg / 0,40lbs in weight and use of unique air filled SmartTubes the featherweight Maxxcare Heel Pro Evolution heel protectors is a relief for foot and care.
The exterior of the Maxxcare Heel Pro Evolution heel protector is made of an ultra-smooth high quality fabric to protect the skin during use. We have specifically chosen this fabric to reduce the damaging influence of shear forces on the client’s skin tissue. Knowing that clients sometimes move their legs while lying in bed – creating extra shear and friction – we’ve made sure to also close the Heel Pro Evolution’s heel area with smooth textiles for extra skin protection.
Please note: We follow the EPUAP guidelines that say that a heel protector must be removed in order to inspect the heel the correct way.
The Maxxcare Heel Pro Evolution is very easy to use and to work with. Once you have received the product you can directly apply it without any preparations. No further maintenance needed. The client can easily take it home or take it to another care facility and continue to use it without any difficulties.
Completely machine washable at 60 °C (140 °F).
It is safe to walk small distances with our heel boots (for example, transfers our walking from bed to toilet without removing the Maxxcare heel protector).
