DJO Relevar Foot Drop Air Transmission Podalib M is an orthosis designed to provide dynamic support in foot dorsiflexion, ideal for adults with foot drop and neurological weakness. Its main goal is to facilitate a more natural and safe gait, contributing to rehabilitation and functional support in cases of neuromuscular disorders. This device helps prevent lateral imbalance without restricting movement, improving the user's daily mobility.
Technical specifications:
- Size M: Ankle circumference of 20 to 27 cm, height of 13 cm.
- Bilateral orthosis: compatible with left or right foot.
- Adjustable elastic strap: with quick closure and metal hook, suitable for all types of footwear with laces, buckles, or eyelets.
- Anatomical ankle brace: which includes two aluminum straps for structural support and a foam pad in the Achilles tendon area for added comfort.
- Lightweight and low-profile design: suitable for use with shoes or barefoot.
- Includes fastening accessories: and is suitable for prolonged use thanks to its breathable textile material.
The action mechanism of this orthosis allows the foot to be maintained in a functional position during walking, compensating for the weakness or paralysis of the foot elevating muscles. This reduces the risk of tripping and falling, improves lateral stability, and promotes a more efficient and less fatiguing gait.
Among its benefits are:
- Prevention of imbalances.
- Adaptation to different types of footwear.
- Comfort during daily use.
This allows for greater autonomy and quality of life for people with foot drop due to neurological causes. It is recommended to consult with a professional for proper supervision and use.
