Abstract

The invention discloses an adjustable achilles tendon traction ankle brace which comprises a crus fixing bracket and an ankle joint fixing bracket, wherein the lower part of the crus fixing bracket is movably connected with one end of the ankle joint fixing bracket at the position corresponding to the ankle; the upper part of the crus fixing bracket is connected with the other end of the ankle joint fixing bracket by an adjustable traction apparatus; the lower part of the ankle joint fixing bracket is also fixedly connected with an achilles tendon traction bracket; a traction beam of the achilles tendon traction bracket is positioned right below the heel; after a traction steel wire is inserted into the stretched achilles tendon from the heel, both ends of the traction steel wire are fixed on the traction beam. The device disclosed by the invention not only can provide safer and more reliable protection than gypsum, but also is convenient for nursing of skin and wounds and can directly carry out dressing change; due to adoption of pull-up treatment in early stage, risk that the achilles tendon is fractured again can be reduced and foot drop can also be effectively prevented.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an adjustable Achilles tendon traction ankle brace, which belongs to the field of medical rehabilitation. Background technique [0002] The main function of the Achilles tendon is to be responsible for the plantar flexion of the ankle joint, which plays an important role in the completion of walking, running, jumping and other movements. Achilles tendon rupture is often a common sports injury, and its incidence has been increasing in recent years. After Achilles tendon rupture, the walking function of patients will be seriously affected. [0003] The traditional treatment plan is to apply plantarflexion plaster or hard wearable boots to promote the two Achilles tendon stumps to approach each other to promote the healing of the Achilles tendon stump. The fixation time is generally 6 to 8 weeks. An over-the-knee long-leg brace was used initially, limiting the knee to flexion and the ankle to plantarflexion to minimize Achilles t...
