What is the Aircast FP Walker?
The Aircast FP (Foam) Walker is a removable walking brace, offering a superior alternative to a plaster cast.
When can I use it?
Following a shin injury or ankle injury, such as:
Ankle fracture
Fibula fracture
Ankle dislocation
Potts fracture
Tibial fracture
Broken leg
Which size do I need?
Based on shoe size. Small:Men's UK 3.5-6.5, Ladies' UK 2.5-5.5
Medium:Men's UK 6.5-9.5, Ladies' UK 5.5-8.5
Large:Men's UK 9.5-13, Ladies' UK 8.5-12.5
How does it work?
The hard plastic shell provides immobilisation and as much protection as a plaster cast, but the lighter weight makes the Aircast FP Walker much more comfortable and convenient. The foam lining provides compression for the swollen shin and ankle, which helps to reduce swelling.
Unlike conventional plaster casting, it can be taken off to allow the patient to bathe and undertake rehab exercises. This improves hygiene, helps prevent ankle stiffness and muscle wastage - reducing the injury healing time.
Aircast walking braces can be used right through the rehabilitation period, from the initial injury until you are ready to start walking normally. Once your doctor indicates that it is OK to resume partial weight bearing on the injured foot or ankle, then the rocker sole on the Aircast FP Walker allows safe walking while still providing protection and compression for the injury. By putting this gentle pressure on the injury the healing process is further accelerated. |
