The Rooke® Heel Float System

Triple Layer Insulating Boot for Protection and Healing

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Rooke® HFS ä Boot is designed to provide optimal insulation, and protection to the lower extremities of patients in a hospital, nursing home or home health care setting. It is ideal for patients being treated for ischemia, neuropathy or other related conditions. It is also useful for patients suffering from pressure ulcers

 

 

Benefits include:

 

Can help patients recover more quickly and enable them to go home earlier with the added protection that the boot provides.

 

Provides extra protection and warmth to the lower limb , increasing vasodilation and improving perfusion.

 

Reduces the chance of pressure sores forming, easy to view and assess heel and foot and reduces the need for pressure relieving mattresses

 

Padded for protection during ambulation

 

One size fits all , easy to fit and adjust to individual requirements

 

Washable for continued use by the patient (not transferable to other patients)

 

Anti-rotation wedge and straps to prevent foot drop

 

 

Gentle warming of the limb is achieved by reducing heat loss frequently associated with ischemic conditions. The boot does not create heat,but acts as an insulating barrier that retains body-generated heat.The Rooke Boot® is designed to be a super-insulated product, containing a 140 gram layer of Thinsulate® plus a 1/8th inch of foam padding.

It is intended to completely surround the foot, heel and calf of the patient.

 

Protection of an ischemic or healing limb is generally regarded as an important aspect of medical management. Placing such a limb in a Rooke Boot® will give it the extra protection it requires.

  

 

The Rooke Boot®'s combination of three layers of fabric and strategically placed foam pads work to absorb pressure from bedding which may be touching the limb. It also acts as a barrier against additional trauma.

 

 

Design Features

 

Foam Support

A foam support has been strategically placed in the dorsal region of the boot. This padding is intended to eliminate any pressure points by acting as filler between the natural contour of the limb and any surface. This support helps prevent pressure sores and provides limited off loading.

 

Triple Layer Construction

The Rooke Boot® is made with an inner layer of synthetic lamb's wool, a middle layer of Thinsulate™ and an exterior layer of low-friction Velour. The fabrics used in the construction of the boot are intended to provide optimal warmth, while also being comfortable and washable.

 

 

Hook and Loop Closures

Easy to use hook and loop closures run alongside the boot's opening and make it possible for the boot to be adapted to individual sizing needs

 

Non-Slip Exterior Surface

A non-slip sole has been sewn onto the boot to decrease the likelihood that a patient may slip. This is a critical for patients who are unsteady on their feet, such as those just beginning to ambulate or who do not ambulate frequently
