background
● Incidence of clubfoot– 1- 6.8 per 1000
● Treatment is Ponsetti methods– manipulation and casting– bracing

● North america (Ponsetti centre)– Recurrence is 5%
● New Zealand– Recurrence is 45% due to poor complince to
abduction brace.

Reason for poor compliance
● Child refuse to sleep and keep crying● Especially if the treatment started after 3
months● It prevent a bigger child from walking
![Page 7: Dynamic abduction brace for Clubfoot Abdul Razak Sulaiman Department of Orthopaedics School of Medical Sciences abdrazak@kb.usm.my 0129896565](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032611/56649ce35503460f949afa10/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Aim of the project
● Primary aim:– Allow the child to sleep in various position yet
keep the feet in abduction.
● Secondary aim:– Allow the child to walk with the feet in
abduction
![Page 8: Dynamic abduction brace for Clubfoot Abdul Razak Sulaiman Department of Orthopaedics School of Medical Sciences abdrazak@kb.usm.my 0129896565](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032611/56649ce35503460f949afa10/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Step I
● Find the movement angle in normal population– Base on foot
progression angle= M1 and M2
![Page 9: Dynamic abduction brace for Clubfoot Abdul Razak Sulaiman Department of Orthopaedics School of Medical Sciences abdrazak@kb.usm.my 0129896565](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032611/56649ce35503460f949afa10/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
M1M2

Step 2
● Find the range of angle in front and hind foot – Maximum degree of
M1 + M2 to be determined by measurement of gait in normal population.

Step 3
● Production of hinge between bar and shoes– Allows reciprocating
(Rt and Lt) movement M1 and M2
– Keeping the foot at 70 degrees abduction

Hinge between bar and shoes
● Location at the side instead of sole– For walking
● Dynamic instead of rigid– Walking
– Different legs position during sleeping

Step 4
● Pre- trial– Clinical usage under supervision
● Refinement of construct
![Page 14: Dynamic abduction brace for Clubfoot Abdul Razak Sulaiman Department of Orthopaedics School of Medical Sciences abdrazak@kb.usm.my 0129896565](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032611/56649ce35503460f949afa10/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Step 5
● Clinical trial– Compliance
● Walker● nonwalker
– Result
– Sustainability of the brace

Potential benefit
● All ctev patients– Especially bigger child
● Noble invention– Publication in High impact factor journal
● Market– National regional world market
