Contracture/Wound Boot

AliMed’s MultiBoot™ X-Cel™ with genuine wool fleece liner and T-Foam™ Calf Cushion is a contracture and wound care boot suitable for fragile skin. The MultiBoot X-Cel has smooth edges on all surfaces that contact skin, reducing the risk of skin tears when residents cross their legs.
