Askina® Heel
Foam wound dressings
Askina® Heel is an anatomically shaped, two layered, non adherent foam dressing, which includes a securement foam strap and two self adhesive hooks that allow dressing to remain in place even during movement.
Askina® Heel uses a hydrophilic polyurethane foam that enhances a moist wound environment conducive to natural healing conditions. Due to innovative characteristics of the foam, Askina® Heel is able to relieve pressure over a wide area, and thus to help prevent pressure ulcers on the heel area.
This foam dressing is available in two sizes:
- Askina® Heel covers an area of 225 cm2
- Askina® Heel (XL) is 33% larger for patients with bigger or swelled feet (area of 303 cm2)
