Decuheel disposable heel lifter against pressure ulcers

Our new heel lifter Decuheel is developed in close cooperation with physiotherapists, ergo therapists and wound care nurses. The result is a heel lifter which both acknowledges the basic needs and simultaneously solves some of the known problems with the existing products. Decuheel is designed for both people with a risk of developing pressure ulcers and for people who have already developed it and have a need for relief of the heel.

Decuheel is easy to use and takes only a minimum of instruction to use. Inflate it, put it on the patient’s foot and close it with the Velcro tape.

You can avoid heavy lifting and unhygienic devices. Decuheel takes up no space, weighs virtually nothing and is clean every time. You can use the Decuheel again and again for the same patient.

Breathable = comfortable

Decuheel is comfortable to wear, both directly against the skin and over a bandage. Thanks to the unique moisture diffusing plastic foil based on the Vapodrain technology it will never be too hot or moist but will always feel comfortable. > Read more about Vapodrain here


Hygienic and economic

Decuheel is very hygienic as it is patient specific and disposable. It can be used for a period of time for the same patient. It can be wiped off with a moist cloth, alcohol or chlorhexidine. After use it is disposed of as regular refuse. Decuheel is easy to bring along in home care or as a district nurse. It is small and light-weight. Just inflate it and put it on the foot.

As Decuheel is air filled, the pressure distribution is perfect - the air distributes auto-matically, also if the patient is turning over in the bed. Decuheel is shaped so that it doesn’t bruise or mark your skin.
