TruVue Heel Protector
TRUVUE™ Heel Protectors:
The TRUVUE™ Heel Protector is designed to protect the leg, foot and ankles while elevating the heel off of bed or other hard surface. TruVue Heel Protector mirrors the natural shape of the leg, securely holding the leg and foot in place while continuing to allow for full range of motion. The straps attached on each side of the heel protector allow the caregiver to maintain the foot at a neutral 90-degree position.

It is intended for use in bed, wheelchairs or day chairs but are not intended to be used while walking.
