protect.Ankle lace up
Intended purpose
protect.Ankle lace up is an ankle brace for stabilization in one plane, it is
adjustable.
Indication
For all indications which require immobilisation of the upper or lower
ankle in one plane, such as:
• Chronic ligament instability in the upper and lower ankle
• After sprains (e.g. supination injuries)
• As a preventative measure after supination injuries, particularly for
sports
• Mild injury to the syndesmotic ligaments
Contraindications
None known at present.
Risks / Side Effects
If the aids are too tight, this can cause local pressure sores or constriction
of blood vessels or nerves. Therefore you should consult the doctor
treating you before you use it if the following circumstances apply to you:
• Condition or injury of the skin in the area of application, particularly
with infectious indications (excessive heat, swelling or reddening)
• Paraesthesia and circulatory disorders (e.g. as seen in diabetes, varicose
veins)
• Lymph drainage disorders – equally, swelling of soft tissue adjacent to
the area of application which is not related to a condition
When wearing snug-fitting aids, this can result in localised skin
inflammation or irritation that is due to mechanical irritation of the skin
(particularly in conjunction with sweating) or due to the composition of
the material.
Intended patient groups
Healthcare professionals should provide care to the adults and children,
applying the available information on the measurements/sizes and
necessary functions/indications and in line with the information provided
by the manufacturer, and acting under their own responsibility.

Fitting instructions

• Loosen the laces well.
• Fold the top end of the tongue over the laces (this will give you a better
grip when pulling on).
• Hold the protect.Ankle lace up by the back shaft and the folded tongue,
and pull the product up over your foot like a sock.
• If you have difficulty in pulling it up, grasp the brace by the sides –
this will enable you to pull harder.
• Check that the brace fits correctly, with the ankle located securely in the
recesses provided in the lateral stabilisation splints.
