Macmed Double Heel Wedge

The Macmed Double Heel Wedge is designed to elevate both lower legs from the hamstrings, ensuring the heels and Achilles tendons remain suspended above the mattress surface. This design helps alleviate pressure, promotes aeration for ulcer drainage, and avoids constricting arterial or venous blood flow.

Its multi-layered foam system includes high-density, visco-elastic and hospital-grade foams, working together to deliver effective pressure redistribution and structured support. The wedge is encased in a medical-grade cover with fully welded seams that is waterproof, breathable and resistant to sanitising chemicals, supporting hygiene protocols in clinical settings.

The non-slip base helps maintain stability during use, while fire-retardant and anti-microbial properties further enhance safety and hygiene. This product is suitable for multi-patient use in line with hospital infection control requirements.

Who it’s for

• For clients at risk of developing heel pressure ulcers, those with existing ulcers, or those requiring heel offloading due to immobility.
• For therapists seeking effective solutions for pressure ulcer prevention and management in clients with limited mobility.
