The scar contracture of Achilles tendon in burn patients after operation is easy to cause " foot drop" , which leads to ankle dorsiflexion dysfunction. To solve this problem, the authors designed and made a static progressive ankle foot orthosis. The foot support part and the crus support part of the orthotic device are connected by rivets, and the distal end of the foot support part and the proximal end of the crus support part are pulled by the traction belt on both sides, gradually improving the ankle dorsiflexion function. This static progressive ankle foot orthosis is simple, practical, cost-effective, and worthy of clinical promotion.
烧伤患者术后跟腱部位的瘢痕挛缩极易形成足下垂，导致踝关节背屈功能障碍。针对此问题，笔者自行设计、制作了一款静态进展性踝足矫形器。该矫形器足底支撑部分与小腿支撑部分由铆钉连接，两侧的牵拉带牵拉足底支撑部分远心端与小腿支撑部分近心端，从而循序渐进地改善踝关节背屈功能。此静态进展性踝足矫形器制作简单、实用性强、经济有效，值得临床推广。.
