Product Description
The heel is the second most common location for pressure ulcers in adults.
11
A heel pressure injury can be devastating to patient mobility and quality of life, and can lead to osteomyelitis and even limb amputation. 2 Patients who are more prone to heel pressure ulcer development include those suffering from risk factors such as diabetes mellitus, vascular disease, immobility and an overall Braden Scale score of 18 or less. 1International guidelines recommend that off-loading devices should completely lift the heel from the bed.

The MolnlyckeZ-FlexTM Fluidized Heel Boot was designed to lift the heel while being comfortable to wear and easy to use.The Z-Flex boot combines Molnlyckes unique fluidized positioner with a single low-pressure air chamber. The fluidized positioner molds and contours around the vulnerable Achilles tendon, supporting and protecting the tendon. The air chamber in the boot uses Positive Air Displacement to redistribute pressure from the heel and Achilles tendon to the whole lower leg. This adds comfort while encouraging natural alignment of the leg without the need for a wedge or pillow.
