Background

With the diversification of leisure activities and sports activities and the increase of labor intensity and frequency, the probability of injury to various parts of the body is also increased, and particularly in high-intensity sports such as basketball, running and the like and daily physical activities, leg injuries, particularly ankle injuries, are a common phenomenon. Ankle sprain and ligament injury are typical representatives of such injuries, and are not only highly developed in people of various ages, but also if improperly treated, the problems of long-term looseness, repeated sprain and the like of the ankle are most likely to be caused, so that the life quality and the exercise function of a patient are seriously affected.

Traditionally, for ankle sprains or ligament injuries, plaster fixation has been the standard treatment once, as it is beneficial for the healing of the damaged ligament. However, the limitations of gypsum fixation are evident, such as being heavy, impermeable to air, not freely detachable, and not meeting the needs of patient activities and physiological needs, which motivates the medical field to seek more convenient and comfortable alternatives. With the rapid development of rehabilitation medicine technology, new materials such as low-temperature thermoplastic plates and resin materials are widely applied, and modern supports are generated by combining with biomechanical design principles. The novel brace has the characteristics of simple operation, strong adjustability, portability, comfort and the like, gradually replaces the traditional plaster fixation in clinic, and is widely applied to the treatment and rehabilitation processes of eight major joints (such as spine, shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip, knee and ankle) including ankle joints. Among them, ankle Guan Jiezhi plays a particularly critical role in preventing secondary injury, promoting postoperative recovery, functional exercise, etc. The design of the device provides a complete set of solution from early braking to prevent internal and external turning to later walking assistance and joint stabilization according to the rehabilitation requirements of different stages.

Although ankle braces are generally designed as a boot structure that wraps around the foot and lower leg to limit the range of motion of the ankle and thereby reduce the risk of re-injury, in practice there is still ankle injury due to the inappropriateness of the brace, which has become a critical point for optimal improvement to ensure that the patient's recovery process after ankle wear is both safe and comfortable.
