RECOMMENDED USE:For patients with cognitive and/or physical disabilities that prevent them from performing protective behaviors such as repositioning or expressing discomfort. It plays a critical role in pressure injury prevention and is a key component of comprehensive care for high-risk populations in hospitals, nursing homes, and home care environments. Description The NYOrtho™ Heel Cloud Cushion Heel Protector is a heel suspension cushion designed to off-load the heel by elevating the lower legs and suspending the heel above the mattress surface. Its popliteal support design helps fill the natural gap behind the knees, allowing the legs to rest in a more natural position while maintaining effective heel suspension. By conforming to the body’s natural leg position, the Heel Cloud Cushion provides stable support during bed rest while helping reduce pressure on the heel. The open heel area allows for monitoring, treatment, and rebandaging without removing the cushion, making it suitable for medical, post-acute, and long-term care settings. Features Heel suspension design off-loads the heel by elevating the lower legs. Popliteal support design helps fill the gap behind the knees for natural positioning and support. Includes a viscoelastic foam layer that conforms to the body while redistributing pressure across a larger surface area. Breathable, wipe-clean stretch cover with antimicrobial protection helps reduce friction against the skin. Slip-resistant bottom helps keep the cushion securely positioned on the mattress. Wipe-clean surface supports routine care and hygiene. Meets CA 117-2013 flammability standards. Additional Resources Product Insert
