ROM WALKER

ROM Walker is a lower-leg foot brace for mobilization in an adjustable range of motion. The patient or an orthotist can quickly and easily adjust the Quick-Set-Hinge to set the angle of immobilisation in ten degree increments. It is also possible to set the tilt angle of the foot (plantar flexion / dorsiflexion). The orthosis's flat, rounded, slip-resistant rocker sole can support a normal gait. Mouldable lateral articulated hinge bars and trimmable pads ensure that the ROM Walker brace is exceptionally comfortable to wear.

With its adjustable ROM (Range of Motion) hinge, ROM Walker promotes early functional mobilization. The radius of movement of the joints in the lower leg and foot region can be adjusted individually depending on the clinical picture and treatment. Thus, the brace can be used for all indications requiring an early functional mobilisation with ROM limitation in joints of the lower leg-foot - area, such as:

• Following fractures of the fibula (postoperative and nonsurgical treatment)
• Following dislocated fractures of the talocrural joint
• Following injuries of the fore foot, middle foot, or tarsus (nonsurgical treatment)
• Following an operation for injuries to ligaments, soft tissues and tendons
• Follow-up treatment of fractures of the talus, calcaneus, and medial malleolus
• For early functional therapy after rupture of the Achilles tendon (nonsurgical/postoperative)

The orthosis with extension and flexion limitation can protect from unhealthful joint movements. The skin-friendly inner material makes it very comfortable to wear – as does the low total weight. The five straps on the media ROM Walker ensure high stability. Furthermore, the hindfoot can be fixed with the additional heel strap. This allows the ROM Walker orthosis to be individually adjusted throughout treatment.
