Parafricta® Reusable Slip-on Bootee
From: €95.00
VAT Exempt
Parafricta® Reusable Slip-on Bootee is made using a strong, breathable, silk-like, low-friction, proprietary fabric that reduces the risk of friction and shear related skin breakdown on the feet.
The foot is particularly vulnerable to pressure ulcers (“bedsores”, pressure injuries) and other skin damage. This is because people frequently dig in their heels to push themselves up in bed or rub their feet on the bed due to agitation or involuntary spasms. When subjected to friction and the associated internal shearing, the cells and tissues of the feet begin to break down, which first manifests itself as redness and inflammation (pre-category 1 and category 1 pressure ulcers) and may progress to blistering and ulceration (category 2+ pressure ulcers).
Parafricta® Bootees provide a comfortable way to protect the feet and ankles (particularly the heels) from the risk of friction and shear-related pressure ulcers and other skin breakdown conditions.
