Tibial Fracture Kit – Orthomerica

SKU B/173x Category

The Tibial Fracture Kit from Orthomerica is a prefabricated functional orthosis designed for Diaphyseal fractures, a ‘PTB’ type design provides hydraulic compression. The brace allows movement of the adjacent knee and ankle joints to increase vascularity and encourage callus formation.

It is a lightweight construction made from a durable thermoplastic that can be trimmed with scissors and modified with a heat gun. The Posterior opening facilities tibial alignment, whilst the adjustable Velcro® straps allow for oedema. The shoe insert allows for dorsiflexion and plantarflexion but limits inversion and eversion.

The kit includes: a functional brace tibial section, one single axis shoe insert and two fracture socks.

Measurement Guide:

  • Ankle Circ – Proximal to malleoli
  • Calf Circ – Apex of the gastrocnemius
  • Length – Superior pole of patella to apex of medial malleolus
