The Gel Ovations Wheelchair Footrest Wraps provide lower leg protection for wheelchair users. This pair of gel pads wrap securely around the lower tubing of extensions on wheelchair swing-away leg rests.
The Gel Ovations Wheelchair Footrest Wraps protect wheelchair users' legs that may come in contact with the hard metal of elevating leg rests and footrests. The gel pads fit on the down leg of 70-degree swing-away footrests and measure 2-1/2 inches wide, and 9-1/2 inches long. Wheelchair users with swing-away leg rests will find the gel wraps are designed to provide comfort and protection and to aid in healing existing sores and/or abrasions. The Gel Ovations Wheelchair Footrest Wraps provide a gel padded wrap for the round tubing of swing-away leg rests, and effectively prevent tissue contact with leg tubing.
Gel Ovations gel wraps are made of medical-grade silicone solid gel. It does not flow or leak out when cut, will not rot or dry out, does not retain heat, is latex-free, and odorless. This gel is highly efficient at distributing pressure, protecting bony prominences, and reducing abrasions, shear, and harmful pressure-related problems. The Gel Ovations Gel wrap cover is a durable neoprene nylon rubber with a nylon surface, similar to wet suit material, which is soft and easy to clean.
