Full Description

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

Indications for use:

• 
  Diaphyseal fractures of the tibia and fibula

Features and benefits:

• 
  ‘PTB’ type design provides hydraulic compression
• 
  Allows movement of the adjacent knee and ankle joint to increase vascularity and encourage osteogenesis
• 
  Lightweight durable thermoplastic can be trimmed with scissors and modified with a heat gun
• 
  Posterior opening facilities tibial alignment, whilst adjustable Velcro® straps allow for oedema
• 
  Shoe insert allows for dorsiflexion and plantarflexion but limits inversion and eversion
