| Special Features: The Amboot's
lace-to-toe design allows complete adjustment in |
| |
 girth
as well as a wide,unobstructed opening for gentle insertion
of a rigid foot, a flail foot, even a sensitive, padded and
bandaged post-operative foot. In cases of deformities that previously
required expensive custom boots, the width and depth accommodation
of the Amboot have proven it to be a successful alternative
to custom footwear.
A sloping topline eliminates chafing at the
back of the patient's leg in the prone position during night
splint work or similar situations.
A completely padded boot, the Amboot's surgical
foam interlining is covered with soft glove leather throughout.
Providing firm but gentle control of the sensitive post- operative
foot, the Amboot is well-suited for cases of multiple fractures,
skin grafts, and other delicate surgical situations.
Extra wide, foam padded tongue allows for
the expansion of wide lacing in cases of swelling. The tongue
design allows for easy trimming as swelling recedes and the
width of lacing is reduced.
|
| Neutral Straight Last: Designed
to accommodate either a right or left foot, Alden's |
| |
Amboot eliminates the expense of splitting pairs
of stock boots for use on one foot only. |
| Brace Compatible Heel and Shank
System: A pre-punched reinforced shank plate |
|
|
 makes
for easy brace attachment. Shank holes are marked on the insole
and designed to accommodate all sizes and angles of stirrup
position. The Amboot's shank design virtually eliminates the
difficulty and cost of drilling through the shank plate. An
oversized heel designed to accept a brace stirrup eliminates
the extra time and expense of a custom built heel to cover the
forward end of the stirrup. The heel is smooth-scoured, finished
and ready for permanent attachment using the provided packet
of screw nails.
|
| Medical Uses: A sophisticated,
multiple-use surgical and brace boot. Use Alden's |
| |
Amboot with internal prostheses of all types where
protection, support, and redistribution of pressure can make
a patient ambulatory and improve circulation. It is often able
to accommodate severe deformities that previously required a
custom boot. |
