The James Leg Elevator - High is a leg support pillow designed to elevate the leg. It is 100% Heat Sealed for infection control. The Elevators have been in use in Orthopaedic wards for many years and can help reduce or even prevent swelling in the leg. The Patient's leg rests on a convoluted surface, which can help blood flow and avoid deep vein thrombosis (DVT).
Key Features
- 100% Heat Sealed for infection control

Additional Information
Note: As this is considered an over-sized item, customers from outside of Australia should contact us before placing an order so that we can provide an accurate shipping cost.
If the Patient has a plaster cast, some sharp edges on the outside of the plaster cast may damage the cover of the Elevator, so we recommend placing a small towel on the Elevator under the cast to give some protection to the cover. Place a rolled-up towel under the knee if the Patient's leg needs to be bent or flexed.
