What is the Aircast XP Walker?
A knee high pneumatic walking brace for shin and ankle injuries. It features an adjustable pneumatic cushioning system to reduce shin and ankle swelling. When can I use it?

Ankle fracture
Broken leg
Fibula fracture
Ankle dislocation
Potts fracture
Tibial fracture
Broken shin
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 protection and immobilisation like a plaster cast, but the lighter weight makes the Aircast XP Walker much more convenient and comfortable. Four AirCells inside the shell can be custom inflated using the hand bulb (included) for a 'total contact' fit. This provides compression for the swollen shin and ankle, which reduces swelling and accelerates recovery.
The Aircast XP Walker can be taken off to allow rehab exercises and foot washing. This improves hygiene, helps prevent ankle stiffness and muscle wastage - further reducing injury healing time.
Aircast walking braces can be used 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, then the Aircast XP Walker allows safe walking while still providing protection and compression. By putting gentle compression on the injury the healing process is further accelerated. |
