Pressure Ulcer Prevention for the Heels of Feet - Padded Medical Wedge
This was purchased for the medical care of a debilitated patient and then not needed.
It was never taken out of the original factory packaging. These cost $146 normally.
The goal is to prevent skin breakdown before it happens to the heels of the feet. Once it occurs it is difficult to treat.
