Gel heel protectors redistribute pressure away from the posterior heel by suspending the heel within a soft gel cup, reducing the peak pressure at the bony prominence and the friction that occurs when a patient shifts position in bed. The AEROSTEP gel construction provides a level of cushioning and conforming contact that foam alternatives cannot match across extended wear periods.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe protectors are designed for ease of application and secure positioning on the foot, and the pack of 2 provides a pair for bilateral use or immediate replacement availability.
