Heelift Bariatric Suspension Boot. This new boot offers the same heel pressure ulcer prevention qualities as the Heelift Standard but is sized specifically for bariatric patients. With the additional introduction of Heelift Petite, DM Systems now offers a range of sizes to patients and health care professionals. The Heelift Bariatric Suspension Boot, available in smooth foam only, is designed for patients who weigh up to 600 lb and who have a calf circumference of between 12 and 23 inches. Like the Heelift Standard, the Heelift Bariatric is latex-free, includes a friction-free tricot backing to facilitate patient mobility, and comes with an extra pad that can be used to help prevent hip rotation or foot drop. It can also be customized for specific patient needs. To relieve pressure on the Achilles tendon or to address Achilles tendon erythema, a 2- to 4-inch wedge can be cut into the elevation pad.
Heelift Petite Suspension Boot. This product is designed to help meet the pressure ulcer prevention needs for pediatric patients or patients who are shorter than average. The boot is available in either smooth or convoluted foam, offers customizable heel pressure redistribution for patients who range in height from 3'10" to 5'4" and who have calf circumferences of 6 to 10 inches. Like the other products in the Heelift family, Heelift Petite is latex-free, includes a friction-free tricot backing, comes with an extra pad, and can be customized.

Versiva XC Gelling Foam Dressings with Hydrofiber Technology. These dressings are available in both adhesive and nonadhesive formulations for use by health care professionals who treat acute and chronic wounds. Both styles are offered in convenient shapes for a variety of wound types. They can be used as primary or secondary dressings, alone or in combination with other wound care products. The Versiva XC Non-Adhesive Gelling Foam Dressing can be cut to shape and size. Both the Versiva XC Adhesive and Non-Adhesive Gelling Foam Dressings consist of a waterproof polyurethane foam/film layer that protects the wound from external contaminants and manages moisture vapor transmission of exudates absorbed by the dressing; an absorptive, nonwoven, fibrous layer of hydrofiber technology that gels on contact with the wound bed to provide a moist wound healing environment and manage exudate spread to the periwound area; and a wound contact layer.
