Malleo Dynastab Vario (47973)
Ankle brace for mobilising in a defined
position, modular concept
Purpose
Malleo Dynastab Vario is an ankle brace with
added stabilising element and strap for early
functional mobilisation. The orthosis may only
be used for foot treatment.
Properties
• Rear entry for pain-free application of the
orthosis
• Wide-area compression reduces swelling and
haematoma
• Stabilising element and strap for gradual
mobilisation
• Modern pull-and-fasten system makes the
brace easy to put on and close
• Two additional stabilising elements
Indications
• Acute ankle injuries/grade II and III sprains
• Acute and chronic instability of the upper and
lower ankle joints
• Post-operative care following ligament surgery
on the ankle
• Acute inflammatory ankle disorders
Contraindications
• Open wounds or skin disorders in the area of
application
• Circulation problems
• Lymph drainage problems
Side effects
To date, no side effects have been registered
during proper use.
Precautionary measures
Follow the instructions given by your doctor
or orthopaedic technician. If you experience
severe pain or discomfort, please consult your
doctor or orthopaedic technician. Store at
room temperature, preferably in the original
packaging. To guarantee its effectiveness and
for reasons of hygiene, the product may not
be passed on to other patients. Any serious
incident that occurs in connection with the
product must be reported to the manufacturer
and to the competent authority of the Member
State in which the user and/or patient are/is
domiciled.
How it works/Therapy
The orthosis combines firm base material with
a rigid plastic element and crossover strap to
immobilise and stabilise the upper and lower
ankle joints. Pronation, supination and plantar
flexion are restricted; talus prolapse is counter-
acted. Immobilisation and stabilisation relieve
the strain on injured structures, protect them,
and prevent detrimental joint movements. The
modular design is variable to match the diffe-
rent stages of the therapy process, i.e. exten-
ded mobility is enabled in a controlled process
by removing the plastic element and eventually
the strap; the therapy can be adapted to the
appropriate phases of healing.
Phase 1 (orthosis + plastic element + crossover
strap):
During the acute phase, immediately after the
trauma, the foot must be immobilised and
stabilised. The full brace, i.e. complete with
stabilising element and strap, offers maximum
support. The foot is supported, swelling reduc-
tion is promoted, and pain is reduced.
Phase 2 (orthosis + crossover strap):
To further promote the reduction of swelling
and to improve muscular stabilisation, the level
of immobilisation can be reduced in the second
phase, and the foot gradually mobilised. By
dispensing with the U-shaped plastic element,
controlled movement is now possible. Together
with the crossover strap, the base element
of the orthosis continues to guarantee the
necessary stability.
Stability can be enhanced even further by in-
serting the two separate reinforcements in
the side pockets, once the U-shaped plastic
element has been removed. For correct positi-
oning, the reinforcements must be pushed in
the direction of the arrow (punched-out arrow
in grey-fabric cover) upwards into the pocket
(Fig. 7). The arrow in the fabric cover of the rein-
forcement must remain visible. Turn the lower
part of the pocket over the lower edge of the
reinforcements once they are pushed in.
We recommend continuing to wear the U-
shaped plastic element at night during this pha-
se to protect structures that have had time to
heal during the day and to prevent them from
moving uncontrollably and suffering renewed
injury.
Phase 3 (orthosis):
To further enhance mobilisation, the cross-
over strap is also removed in the last phase to
enable the structures to become increasingly
accustomed to the load and to strengthen them
in this third phase of the therapy.
