Question
wearing a medicalboot and need cover for greasy floor. will these work or do you know of something that will

Answer

If you will be on a floor that is greasy with a liquid or some other type of fluid, we would probably suggest one of our polyethylene covers so that the grease or fluid does not soak through the shoe cover.  You would likely need a size XL for the boot depending on your shoe size.

Question
Could this unit be set so that the patient was able to get to bedside potty chair w/o it sounding. It seems as if the beam can be placed to allow this movement and could be set to go off if a set boundary is crossed.

Answer

Thank you for your inquiry. This alarm is set-up if the patient leaves the bed period, the alarm will sound. There is no additional setting that would allow the patient to leave the bed to use the bedside potty chair. I apologize for the inconvenience.

Im trying to decide between the Pronex unit and the Comfortract. Do you have any input

Answer

The only unit we currently have sales history for is the Pronex Traction Device, however according to the product specifications, it seems that the ComforTrac would be a device providing most similar treatment as to what would be administered by a therapist.

is this model as good as the welch allyn gold series ds66 trigger aneroid. i was told the trigger deflation valve on the aforementioned model is really good. does this multi cuff kit have that what are the differences?thank you.

Answer

This system does feature the trigger deflation system similar to Welch Allyn's.  It also features a luer slip connection for quick changing of cuff sizes.  It can be comfortably used by left or right handed operators.

This unit would be that most comparable to the WA DS66 system that we carry.
