Peroneal Tendinopathy…
Effective off-loading to avoid surgery.
Successful treatment of peroneal tendinopathy often requires long term offloading. Compared to a walking boot, the Richie Brace® will not restrict shoe fit while allowing total comfort during ambulation. This will ensure maximal compliance during treatment.
If conservative treatment fails, the Richie Brace® is an excellent modality for post operative protection of the surgically repaired peroneal tendons.
The Richie Brace® provides ideal support and offloading due to:
Contoured leg uprights for control of ankle inversion
Lateral arch suspender applies eversion torque to foot and ankle
Balanced orthotic footplate for control of subtalar and midtarsal joints
35mm heel cup for control of rearfoot inversion
Optional valgus posting for enhanced resistance to inversion
The Richie Brace® with Lateral Arch Suspender will simultaneously offload the peroneal tendons in both the frontal and transverse planes at multiple articulations in the foot and ankle.
Goal: Decrease inversion moment at rearfoot and ankle
Goal: Decrease eversion and abduction demand on peroneal tendons
Recommended Prescription Criteria:
Richie Brace® with Lateral Arch Suspender
3-6 degree valgus rearfoot post
3-6 degree valgus forefoot sulcus wedge
6 mm lateral heel skive
Medial Arch Flange to abduct midfoot
Cast or Scan the patient non-weight bearing, subtalar joint neutral with forefoot maximally pronated on rearfoot.
