VACOped Diabetic Boot, Medium, for Difficult Heel Ulcers
The VACOped Diabetic Boot is a clinically proven solution for patients suffering from difficult heel ulcers caused by Diabetic Foot Syndrome. Its unique features provide pressure relief, successful wound healing, and improved quality of life. The built-in range of motion allows users to adjust the boot to 10 degrees dorsal flexion, shifting weight forwards and offloading the heel when needed. The vacuum technology, along with bead-filled inserts that mold to the user's foot, provide successful wound healing by relieving pressure. The toe of the boot is covered to protect neuropathic feet from debris entering the boot. The rocker sole gives better pressure distribution, and the foam insole provides additional shock absorption and offloading. The low friction wicking synthetic velour liner is gentler compared to regular treatment boots. Simplifying treatments for medical professionals, this boot is perfect for patients who have indications of diabetes such as Diabetic Foot Syndrome and heel ulcers.
