Podartis Tutore Heel Boot TU500
HEEL BOOT is a heel-offloading brace designed for bedridden patients (the extendable front protects the toes and the anti-rotation buttress diminishes limb movement) and for short walks around the house (thanks to the ultra-lightweight tread).
It is recommended for heel ulcers in order to prevent lesions to the toes caused by rubbing against the blankets and bedsores.
Made from a soft lightweight material, the airy padding accommodates the injured foot without causing pressure or chafing. The side strap is adjustable to help the foot regain the right posture without straining the joints.
The multi-velcro-strap system means that patients can adjust the internal volume and adapt it to fit their foot.SKU: n/a -

Podartis Teraheel PO400 (1pc)
TERAHEEL is a post-operative piece of footwear recommended for the treatment of heel fractures, during the post-operative stages of the rearfoot and in the case of patients affected by heel spurs. It is also useful in the case of rearfoot ulcers.
The sole protects the rearfoot and allows for complete offloading, enabling the patient to walk around without the help of crutches. Rearfoot offloading is further facilitated by an insole in soft polyurethane (customisable).
The back of the shoe has been fitted with a removable protective ring which acts as a bumper, making sure that the patient does not run the risk of being knocked on the critical area.
The side counters contain and stabilise the foot.SKU: n/a -

Podartis Stabil D Straps Black PO700
STABIL D is a foot/ankle brace devised to treat the diabetic foot during the acute phase and to offload pressure in the case of neuropathic and ischaemic ulcers affecting the forefoot and midfoot. It is recommended for the vascular-diseased diabetic foot and Charcot foot. It is ideal for the post-surgical treatment of ankle-foot and subastragal arthrosis, corrective distal osteotomy and fractures to the astragalus and heel whenever complete offloading is required. It is also suitable for instability in the ankle whenever the ankle-foot joint needs to be partially immobilised.
The rigid biomechanical outsole provides the brace with the utmost stability during the gait cycle and the EVA insole (included) makes for targeted offloading.
The multi-velcro fastening and full opening make it easy and quick to put on whilst the front flap protects the tibia and instep from dangerous painful rubbing.
STABIL D can be used together with the Modus Insole which allows for complete offloading on the zone affected by ulcers, or bespoke insoles.SKU: n/a -

Podartis TD PO500 (1pc)
TD is a post-operative clinically tested piece of footwear recommended in the case of hallux valgus and diabetic ulcers on the forefoot and midfoot.
There is no need for crutches. The rigid biomechanical outsole provides more stability and protection, allowing the patient to walk safely and return to normal life as soon as possible. Being 22-mm thick, it enables the wearer to maintain a natural posture and minimises dysmetria with the healthy limb, helping the patient to mimic normal walking movements. The rigid outsole lowers the risk of re-ulceration in diabetic patients by over 50% (tests conducted by the Rizzoli Orthopaedic Institute (Istituto Ortopedico Rizzoli), University of Bologna).
The Zero Insole (PO600) is included in the package and has an 8° offload which allows pressure to be shifted from the forefoot to the rearfoot; it has been made from two differentiated-density materials so that the midfoot and rearfoot (with a higher density) can bear the patient’s weight whereas the metatarsal zone (less dense) is softer, protecting the foot and taking its shape. The Zero Insole can be customised to suit the individual foot (selective offloading).
The triple-velcro fastening means that the shoe can be opened completely at the front and adjusted for a perfect fit, accommodating swollen or sore feet and allowing for offloading insoles to be inserted.SKU: n/a -

Podartis Terapes PO200 (1pc)
TERAPES is a clinically tested post-operative shoe recommended for usage after minimally invasive and percutaneous operations on the forefoot. It is also useful for bandaged feet and allows for partial movement of the forefoot.
Clinical tests show that the semi-rigid biomechanical outsole makes for a smoother gait and allows for forefoot offsetting.
Moreover, by lengthening the midstance interval, semi-rigid biomechanical technology protects the metatarsal bones, reducing the mobility of the metatarsophalangeal joints and contributing to an earlier recovery of the motor functions (Clinical study on offloading footwear for the post-surgical recovery phase, 2012).
The toe-strike angle is accentuated to help the foot roll naturally, helping to simulate normal walking.
The seamless padded nylon upper and velcro closure mean that TERAPES is also an excellent solution for dorsal, interdigital and subungual ulcers as well as being effective in the case of delicate or sensitive skin because nasty rubbing and painful chafing is prevented.
The double-velcro fastening means that the front of the shoe can be opened completely and the internal volume adjusted so that swollen or sore feet can be accommodated and ready-made or bespoke insoles can be inserted.
With a practical lightweight structure, TERAPES does not only offer an easy entry, it combines a curated design with new technology so it is effective and comfortable on the foot.SKU: n/a -

Podartis WPS PO100 (1pc)
WPS is a post-operative piece of footwear designed to treat fractures, inflammatory disorders or pain at the front of the front.
The forefoot-offloading outsole transfers the weight to the rearfoot, making MPS ideal for the treatment of interdigital and forefoot ulcers as well.
The height of the 34mm outsole contributes to a natural stance whilst the angle of dorsiflexion stabilises the gait and reduces the “step effect” (Novel test 2007). It also allows for the insertion of a balancing customisable EVA insole (attached).
The super-soft nylon upper without an edge trim is suitable for more sensitive feet with skin problems. The protective front edge only measures 6 mm and was designed not to interfere with K-wire work.
The triple-velcro fastening allows patients to adjust the internal volume to suit their needs.
The effectiveness of WPS in offloading pressure from the forefoot has been tested clinically and biomechanically. It allows patients to get back to walking earlier, hastening the recovery of joint function (clinical study on offloading footwear during the post-surgical recovery phase, 2012).SKU: n/a -

Podartis Mini in Midnight – 1 PO800-1 (1pc)
The new High-Tech sole of the Mini-IN is the result of Podartis research in cooperation with the Laboratory of Movement of the University of Bologna together with Prof. Lisa Berti. The height of the sole is similar to that of its sister shoe “Activity One Velcro” to avoid discrepancies, the EVA construction makes it super light and the addition of non-slip rubber inserts improves stability.
