Southwest Technologies Elasto-Gel™ Cast / Splint Padding are designed to help prevent pressure sores and skin irritation that can develop under casts, splints, braces, orthotic and prosthetic devices. This unique dressing is manufactured using a high glycerin formula that allows it to absorb excess moisture and perspiration from the skin and transmit it directly to the air. Typical applications for Elasto-Gel™ Cast/Splint Padding are prevention of blisters, prevention of pressure ulcers, foot callus softening, heel cushion, for use under pressure garments and to help stabilize splints.
