An off-the-shelf brace, the AirLift PTTD Brace is
designed for the treatment of posterior tibial tendon
dysfunction (PTTD), or for early signs and symptoms of the
adult acquired flat foot. Depending on the severity of the
condition, it can be prescribed for use as part of a
conservative treatment to stabilize the condition and help
prevent its degeneration, or post-surgically and during
rehabilitation.
Foot support and ankle stabilization are provided by the
AirLift integrated aircell and semi-rigid shells. The
aircell, located under the foot arch, is adjustable using
the Hand Bulb (included with the brace). When inflated, the
aircell can accommodate variances in arch shapes and heights
and comfortably lifts the foot arch to achieve a more
natural foot position. For ease-of-use, aircell inflation
can be adjusted while wearing foot wear. The semi-rigid
shells are anatomically designed to the shape of the ankle
for secure support and stabilization. These shells help
realign the ankle and support the patient.
The AirLift is designed for easy application and adjustment.
The brace uses an innovative rear entry design which allows
the patient to slip their foot into the back of the brace.
Two straps secure the brace and can be used to adjust fit.
These patient-friendly design elements make the AirLift
easier to apply than custom braces, eliminate time consuming
lacing, and help improve patient compliance.
