Prevederm Pressure Relief Heel and Elbow Gel Cushion

This gel cushion is designed to sit between vulnerable skin and the surface applying pressure. By cushioning the area and spreading load more evenly, it helps reduce concentrated pressure on the heel, elbow or knee.

The visco-elastic gel is intended to move synergistically with the skin, which may help reduce abrasion and discomfort. Anti-bacterial technology and the gradual release of medical-grade mineral oil are designed to support skin comfort, while perforations help improve breathability and reduce excessive moisture build-up.

In practical terms, this makes it a useful option for people researching heel pressure relief, elbow pressure care, bed sore prevention products, or cushioning for exposed bony areas.

This product may be suitable for:

• People at risk of pressure ulcers on the heel, elbow or knee
• Users who are immobile, bed-bound, or spending long periods seated or resting
• Care home, hospital, community care and home care settings
• Clinicians, carers and informed consumers looking for simple pressure relief cushioning
• Users who need a gel cushion that can be used inside a sock or shoe, or secured with tape or bandaging
• People looking for cushioning around exposed bony areas rather than rigid offloading devices

This product may be less suitable where:

• A full offloading boot or more structured pressure redistribution device is clinically required
• There is already significant skin breakdown, infection or a wound that needs direct clinical management
• The user requires a product specifically designed only for walking support rather than pressure care
• The fit, placement or skin response cannot be monitored regularly

Where there is uncertainty about pressure ulcer risk, skin integrity, fit or appropriate positioning, a healthcare professional should guide product selection and use.

• This product is intended to support pressure relief and skin protection, but it is not a substitute for full clinical assessment where pressure ulcer risk is present.
• Inspect the skin regularly for signs of redness, irritation, moisture build-up or worsening breakdown.
• Use with caution where there is fragile skin, altered sensation, active ulceration or significant circulatory compromise.
• Make sure the cushion is positioned correctly and does not bunch, shift or create extra pressure.
• Consult a healthcare professional to confirm suitability for individual medical needs and best outcomes.

The Prevederm Pressure Relief Heel and Elbow Gel Cushion is a soft gel pressure care product designed to help protect heels, elbows and knees from pressure, friction and discomfort. It is commonly used for people who are immobile or at risk of pressure sores, and it helps cushion exposed bony areas while supporting more even pressure distribution. It may be suitable for home care, clinical care and general pressure ulcer prevention where simple cushioning and skin protection are needed.
