Air Cast Boot/ Orthopaedic boot Large

The Aircast boot walker is used to provide support after severe ankle sprains, foot fractures and foot or ankle surgery. It’s also used to manage oedema.
One of the benefits of the Aircast boot walker is the control it gives you as the wearer. You can adjust the straps and the air-cell pockets on the side walls of the brace to make it as comfortable as possible. The key is setting it up so that you’re still getting the support you need.

To set up your Aircast boot, you’ll need to wear a cotton cast sock over the injured foot (a).

Sit down and straighten out your leg. Position your heel against the back of the cast (c).
Wrap the liner over the front of your foot, and smooth out any wrinkles in the liner fabric (b).
Set the protective plate (d) over your shin and the top of your foot.
Tuck the lips on the bottom of the plate inside the boot by the foot.
Wrap the lips on the vertical part of the plate around the boot.
Tighten the straps on the front of the Aircast boot, working from the bottom strap up the boot until the straps are snug and comfortable.

Next, you need to inflate the air cells in the boot.
