The DARCO HeelWedge is clinically proven to off-load pressure from the heel by shifting weight to the mid and forefoot to promote faster healing after surgery trauma or when wounds or ulcerations are present on the heel. Reduces Heel pressure by over 26%! Square Toe Design acts as a bumper to protect the toes and provides better universal left/right fit. Ankle Strap seats foot firmly in shoe to reduce heel slippage and eliminate friction. Removable forefoot closure provides security while eliminating buckle pressure. Zoned outsole has an aggressive tread under the mid-foot where traction is needed most. Removable Insole features twice the padding of standard insoles and can be modified as needed. Insole can be totally removed to accommodate DARCO's innovative Peg Assist customizable off-loading insole for an even more targeted off-load. Optional Peg-Assist Insoles available: use 1471A-1471E. HCPCS Suggested Code: L3260.
