An Innovative Orthotic Product for the Prevention and Treatment of Equinus Contracture
In this article, we have outlined the implications of equinus contracture, a condition that often affects stroke patients and can cause significant physical disability. We've addressed the limitations of commonly used orthotic solutions and introduced the 654SKG DDA Orthosis, a dynamic device designed to prevent and even reverse heel contractures.
This orthosis ensures tissue health and corrects biomechanics, making it a valuable tool for various clinical applications. The article also provides guidelines for its proper use and stresses the importance of consulting with healthcare professionals before starting to use any device for the treatment or prevention of equinus contracture.
