Toad Medical's Anti-Gravity Brace utilises patented prosthetic suspension technology, completely unloading the foot and ankle complex and eliminating pressure and shear which has been proven successful on patients that weigh up to 260kg! The TAG Brace has the ability to heal the most stubborn of foot ulcerations.
Toad Anti-Gravity Brace (Opened) The Toad Anti-Gravity Brace is the premier choice for Charcot’s Foot, lower limb fractures and reconstructions that require unloading such as distal tibia, foot, ankle and metatarsal fractures.
By enabling the patient to ambulate during recovery time without the need for crutches, muscular atrophy is dramatically reduced while allowing the patient to apply weight to the rest of the skeletal structure to maintain bone density and stability.
A significant majority of ulcerations are located on the plantar surface of the foot. Due to lack of vascular supply, sensation, and the extreme pressures and friction on the foot during ambulation, many of these ulcerations will turn to amputation because of our inability to completely unload the foot. Toad Corporation has now developed the first unloading brace to 100% unload the lower extremity.
