The James Leg Elevator - Low 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 foam surface, which can help blood flow and avoid deep vein thrombosis (DVT).
Key Features
- 100% Heat Sealed: Ensures infection control.
- Convoluted Foam Surface: Aids in blood flow and reduces the risk of DVT.
- Side Walls: Helps prevent the leg from rolling off.
- Height: Raises the foot about 25cm / 10" depending on the length of the Patient's leg.
Additional Information
To use, place under the leg. 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.
