Relevance – Heel ulcers are 2nd most common pressure ulcers. – Despite heel ulcers’ significant morbidity and economic cost, understanding of basic pathophysiology of pressure ulcers is lacking because of limited basic research.

Tissue strains were calculated for: – Skin. – Subcutaneous tissue. – Effective (total) soft tissue.

Heel padding devices: – Significantly reduced extent of deformations in both skin and subcutaneous tissues. – Design features substantially influenced tissue deformations.
