A new shoe for drop foot with automatic raising of the fore-foot
Abstract:
A new orthopaedic shoe has been designed for foot drop. It automatically raises the anterior part of the foot as the step is completed. This effect is obtained by the application to the sole of a strip of metal joined to a spring concealed in the heel of the shoe, which keeps the anterior part of the shoe in dorsiflexion. When the patient rests his foot on the ground, the shoe aligns itself with the ground. When the patient lifts his leg in walking, the recoil of the spring raises the anterior part of the shoe.
