Application procedure Dorsum Pad as accessory for VACOped
Intended use: For use only in combination with the VACOped to prevent pressure points in the area of the instep (top of the foot).

In some cases, pressure points may develop in the instep area of the foot (top of the foot) with fittings for Achilles tendon injuries and fractures due to the foot anatomy or swelling. The Dorsum Pad can help.

How to use
1. The pad should be inserted precisely over the joint between the shin and the foot. Important: Do not insert the pad too far down.

2. Close all straps hand-tight, depending on the pain level. The two upper straps should be closed tightly, but only firmly enough so that no pain is felt. This prevents the foot from sliding forward.

3. Important: Make sure that the Dorsum Pad sits above the window, so that it cannot be seen in the
window.

Safety advice
For use only after consultation with your doctor.
Observe the proper positioning (see the application process).
If excessive pain, swelling, numbness or sensitivity changes, unusual reactions or an unpleasant feeling while wearing should develop, please contact your attending doctor or orthopaedic technician immediately.
This product is not made from natural rubber latex.
Never wear the product on open wounds.

VACOped is the most modern and effective treatment option for any injury in the foot or ankle. A range of clinical studies have proven the superior results for patients fitted with VACOped, with significant reductions in recovery time. Our proven therapy concept yields best results and provides various benefits to both surgeon and patient.

VACOped Achill extends the field of application by being able to treat achilles tendon ruptures in equinus position. This is possible by an adjustable joint having a ROM (range of motion) setting in 5°-steps from -15° to +30° in conjunction with the wedged sole which is included in every VACOped.

OP/Treatment Success and Time Saving Ensured by
● a fast and easy modification from VACOped to Achill-setting via simple self-alignment and supplied wedged sole.
● the opportunity of controlled movement release with defined range of motion in the ankle
● the possibility to adjust ROM (range of motion) in 5°-steps from 30° setting through to the zero position
● earlier walking under full weight bearing

We wish a speedy recovery.
