Caution
Indications
Your physician has prescribed you a very unusual looking shoe. Its design
allows for the most rapid healing of fractures and recovery after surgery
with unlimited mobility at the same time. Walking with this boot is more
difficult than walking with conventional footwear; please read the fol-
lowing precautions.
Do not attempt to drive while wearing this boot. Use extreme caution
when climbing stairs, stepping up onto curbs and walking on uneven
surfaces. Walk more slowly than usual. You are not wearing a normal
street shoe and more clearance is required for the wedge sole. Excessive
weight bearing (edematous pa tients) may cause a breakdown of the
shoe’s functional sole. In case the sole must be fixed due to extensive
wearing, please contact your physician or orthopedic technician.
Recommen dation to wear with bandages or socks. If the product is
improperly handled its function and optimal safety can no longer be
guaranteed.
