Frequently asked questions
How does the insole help with ulcer healing?
The shoe features an advanced Impax grid tri-laminate insole. This allows for targeted off-loading by letting you remove specific foam blocks, effectively redistributing pressure away from sensitive or ulcerated areas of the foot.
Does the design help prevent skin irritation?
Yes, the shoe is engineered with a seamless interior. This crucial design choice minimizes friction and contact points, which significantly lowers the risk of skin breakdown during use.
Can I wear this on either foot?
Absolutely. The ProCare Pressure Relief Shoe features a universal, ergonomic design that is fully compatible with either the left or right foot.
How do I secure the shoe for a comfortable fit?
The shoe utilizes a user-friendly hook and loop closure system. This allows for quick, easy adjustments to ensure the fit remains secure and comfortable throughout the day.
Is this shoe suitable for men and women?
Yes, it is a unisex orthotic device. The Small size fits the following ranges:
- Male: Sizes 4 to 6
- Female: Sizes 6-1/2 to 8-1/2
Is the material breathable for extended wear?
The upper is constructed from a structured, breathable textile. This material is designed to conform to the foot while maintaining durability and proper airflow during the healing process.
Does the shoe provide enough space for the toes?
The shoe features a robust, rounded toe box. This specific engineering provides ample room and protection for the forefoot to prevent unnecessary pressure.
Is the sole designed to assist with stability?
Yes, the shoe includes a thick, supportive sole specifically engineered to provide stability and protection during the patient’s healing process.
How should I customize the pressure relief areas?
Customization is achieved by removing individual foam blocks from the grid interface within the insole. This allows the support to be tailored exactly to the patient’s specific requirements.
Is this shoe intended for clinical or home use?
While specifically engineered for clinical environments to manage diabetic ulcers, its ease of use and adjustable features make it a highly effective tool for consistent long-term foot care support.
