In order to obtain a greater degree of therapeutic effectiveness in the different pathologies and to
prolong the life and utility of the product, it is fundamental that the correct size adequate for each
patient or user is chosen (enclosed in the packet is a diagram with all the sizes and the equivalent
in centimetres). An excess compression can produce intolerance, therefore we recommend that
the compression be regulated to an optimum degree.
To fit observe the following aspects:
Before fitting the orthesis on the patient, regulate the plantar or dorsal flexion by means of the
medial and lateral straps at a range of 75º, in 15º intervals. (following the specialist's instructions)
Subsequently regulate the internal and external rotation at the base of the triangle. (from 0º to
15º).
Place and insert the foot inside the splint.
Finally adjust the central pin, by tightening the forefoot and calf pin, and centralising the cor-
responding cushions.
