Luna long-term surgical shoe

Intended use

• the sandal-like, wide surgical shoe with raised toe edge is designed to accommodate large-volume dressings and protect them against slipping
• Cube cushion sole for selective pressure relief
• the stiffened outsole additionally relieves the injured foot
• the higher socket and the sturdily reinforced heel area provide a secure hold for the foot
• improved slip protection by integrated anti-slip nubs
• Inner lining fabric of the shoe as well as cover fabric of the padded insole are anti-bacterially equipped based on ammonium-silane-compound; this limits colonisation of the material with certain bacterial strains (e.g. Staphylokokkus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae)

Special feature

In connection with wounds in the foot¸ and ankle area, pressure complaints or other disorders can often be noticed too late or not at all. We therefore recommend that you check your feet, their bandages and orthopaedic aids daily. In case of occurring disorders, specific questions, delays in wound healing or unauthorised discontinuation of therapy ("incompliance"), please consult your attending physician or your medical supply store.
